alterd MDF guitar


Hi folks  I recently made a purchase from Hobbilicious (link below) , some awesome items in their shop !(https://www.hobbilicious.com/https://www.hobbilicious.com/).
They sent me a freebie of a guitar. 90mm x 220mm and as I am keeping my large pieces for a craft weekend with friends I decided to alter the guitar. I decided I wanted this to have a stand so I dug out some MDF ovals I had. .I stuck 2 together to give weight then I coated everything in imaginations craft wax. Using DP Crafter Companion I cut and applied to the front of my items. Then I used TH distress ink to edge everything.  Digging through my stash I gathered some bronze embellishments, a wood butterfly and heart, a clock (the works) , and scroll piece from Dusty attic. After inking the wood pieces I used Imagination crafts rusty patina  on the embellishments and on the papers. All the beautiful flowers are from I Am Roses. The bronze leaves are from my stash. The pearl trim I bought from a local shop .I scattered bronze chucky glitter in areas and glass onto the flowers. Using gesso I dabbed areas of the flowers. To attach the guitar to the base I dug out a grove with a craft knife onto the base and attached using hot glue .I used some round wood pieces to support the guitar back and front. This was such a fun piece to do , a sweet gift for my sister.

Using some of the stunning flowers from I am Roses (link below) I placed onto the centre piece and used bronze metal leaves and some wood stalks to decorate I added metal butterflies and a die cut heart,. Finally I sprayed with TH spray to create some splatters , then dripped some to create drips.

rusty past

Hi folks. When I heard the words "Past and Rust" I immediately thought of my dads old car. A blue Hillman Hunter. He spent months repairing the car from top to bottom. We all loved that car it took us on holiday to the sea side and to my aunts farm in summertime. I have so many fond memory's of that car. A list of ingredients is below.

Flowers all die cut and rolled.- Music paper from my stash. -Frame - Tim Holtz. Car was die cut twice and I used Dusty Attic Rust powder. I also used the powder on pieces of scrap paper. I die cut the small lighthouse, seahorse. The Circles are snipart.I used TH Picket fence spray to speckle and drip onto the creation. Feather from my stash. Thanks for stopping by x
DP - Prima.
