Shows stencil work using the DA bubble stencil, & translucent paste. Once the paste died I painted the stencil work with the LuminArt-Heavenly white H20. I primed all of the chipboard with clear gesso, except for the snowflakes & Icicles I primed them with white gesso….

I painted most of the chipboard with clear crackle, then once the crackle dried, I painted the pieces with the LuminArt-Heavenly White, or the liquid pearls-robins egg…I also painted the flowers with the heavenly white, for shimmer…
I applied the snow texture (using a brush), & sprinkled on glass glitter on to the wet glitter. I did this on to some areas of the chipboard & on to the flowers…
Here are some more close ups…

Thank you so much for taking the time to look & I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with, with this months challenge. All the best for 2017….Rachelle

TOMORROW we will reveal who won the December Mood Board Challenge and there was also a prize for whomever entered the most during 2016, this prize will also be revealed in the next week.

In the mean time hope you enjoy your New Years Day and if you get some creating time give the new challenge a go and also have a look at “The Nifty Pixel”.
