I am calling it
“Explore Sea Glass Bottle”
I pulled the blues and browns from the mood board and designed this as my inspiration.

I started out with a small wine bottle ( Mateus Rose) this measures about 10 inches high and around 5 inches wide in the center; its a bit smaller than most wine bottles, and i wasnt too disappointed that i had to empty the bottle first, haha but i bought this bottle especially for the size for me to alter.
I started out by priming the bottle and all the chipboard pieces as when i started i wasn’t sure what i was going to do with it, the Decorative Frame was the perfect size and fit top to bottom on this little bottle.

I had colored the leaves and small glass bottle on the front using colors to coordinate with the Mood Board. Mainly Patina paint form Ranger; Art Anthology and Prima Mists.
I wanted the bottle to look like it has been sitting half in the sand, and half exposed to water
i added crackle and pastes to the chipboard to give added texture
