First I dripped Golden - Clear Tar Gel and Little Black Dress on to the white smoothy card and stayed over night. I then dripped Fresco Banana, Caribbean Sea and Bougainvillea again. And I used Treasure Gold Classic randomly. I cut the painting sheet into two rectangles. Prepare another square cut of white paper, I glued the two rectangles papers on the both sides.

The Brooch for October

Hello friends and welcome here!
On the PA challenge blog, this fortnight topic18 is 'Wearable Art'.
My entry was late because I had to think about making.
Then I decided to make the Brooch for October!!

First I used shrink plastic, it was cut into 12 cm diameter and sanded by sanding block.

I stamped Darcy's tree EDY 06 by Potting Soil Archival. When it dried I was colored in pastel lightly.

It was placed on a toaster that was laid cooking sheet, then I was heated for about 2 minutes. The circle about 40 ％ shrank and the color was slightly darker.

I was layout some laces, thread and beads to the circle Then I was using Glossy Accents ( I ordered a Resin to Amazon but not coming yet... ) in place other than laces, and I've put it overnight.

This is the back side. I painted white gesso 3 times and stamped Lin's love birds
ELB 21.  Finally I attached the pin.

Thank you so much stopping by. Have a wonderful days.
