I am thrilled and honoured to say that lovely Indigoblu invited me to stay on their Design Team for another year. They are all such lovely and talented ladies and gent.They have been very kind and understanding as I have developed another serious health problem, and I am currently boggled eyed with strong painkillers!
Can you spot a shrunken Alice taking a stroll in her colourful and beautiful garden above?
I painted the inexpensive wooden frame with Grandmas Teacup. When the paint was dry, I dabbed Snow White paint onto the numbers stamp, and I randomly stamped it around the frame.
For the background, I cut a piece of Watercolour card to fit inside of the frame.I mixed Grandmas Teacup, Iced Gem, and Olive paints with some water to give it the fluidity of Watercolours. I spritzed the paper with water and added the washes of colour. When it was still wet I sprinkled the lovely luscious powders over the top.I also used paint to stamp "Kindness Matters" from the Mindfulness stamp set.
I used paints instead of inks to stamp the flowers over the background.I also stamped some on another piece of card for cutting out.
I used Stazon to stamp Alice and the bees onto shrink plastic, and shrunk them.Alice is of course used to shrinking! I adhered the bees to some twisted wire.
After adhering the background inside of the frame, I added some Coarse texture paste inside the bottom of the frame. It held the flowers both stamped and pressed, bees and of course Alice in place. When dry I painted over the texture paste with Olive paint.
I added some more flowers to the front of the frame. I stamped and coloured a beautiful butterfly, and sat her in the top left corner of the frame, where she could oversee events.
You could also apply these steps to easily create a greeting card instead of a framed picture.
