Captured Moment – Pascale B

Hello Sweeties,

Today I’m up on Dusty Attic’s blog with an album cover, a gift for a friend. 

I covered the Geo Panel #1with Graphite paste. I cut out the Number Panel two 9  which I embossed with Chrome Doesn’t Pay!

I selected gears from different sets like Jumbo Cogs #2, Gears #1 by nuneka, Mini Cogs, and Designer Disc #15. I chose also the Industrial Cluster #1.

I used a technique I haven’t used for a very long time to alter the Jumbo Cog #2 and the Designer Disc #15. First I covered them with black gesso, then I added PVA glue with I heated until the glue bubbled. I covered the glue with black gesso and heat again; When cold, I highlight the details with silver wax. You can see the step-by-step here.

I decided to cover the other cogs with silver Metallic Flakes to add some contrast. I used Soot Antiquing wax to tone down the shine.

I glued the different chipboards with 3D Gel.

To finished I added a few screw heads.
