Love heart number 2

Hi everyone. 

This is my new wooden love heart I made.

If you have seen my other blogs you will see I am really enjoying this type of craft.

I started with a wooden heart and started placing objects on the heart till I get the look I like. 


As you will notice from my final piece the shape of the heart and other items have changed.

Next I put a grunge paste tree bark effect all over the heart.


To this i gave a white coat of fresco paint, then  started applying various coats of different blues starting off with the lightest.


To the outer edge i started getting darker with french roast and a small amount of black dress. To this I added a gold edge.


Next I decided to paint my items before I stuck them down to the heart Instead of after as i have done before.


These were painted with my blue fresco paints and finished off with some treasure gold (great product to use).

I then stuck down my flatter Items before i added an amount of cheese cloth which i had paint with gold fresco paint. Then the remainder of items were stuck on the cheese cloth with bits of the cloth appearing between my items.

I added a small heart on the left side which was painted and stuck on more of the gold chesse cloth 



And my final finished heart... 


Many thanks for looking.

Jamie
