Off the page project

Time for and off the page challenge.

April 22/4/2016

Hi to all,

I decided to undertake an off the page project this week. I picked up this clock from a $2 shop and thought it would make a good item for altering.





It was originally red but with a layer of gesso and some acrylic paint it soon transformed into a blue hued backdrop. I then used modelling paste and a couple of stencils to add some texture before adding some more paint before giving it some flower love.


I will be using this clock in my craft room so I was happy to go mad with a little bling and some shimmer using a liquitex metallic paint over the acrylic base coat. I used some metal corners that I cut down so they matched the rounded corners of the clock.

I finished off with a pretty beaded butterfly and it was done. I quick but effective project done in a flash.

Let me know what you thank and thanks for your feedback.
Regards
Angela
