Altered "J" and "I"


Wooden "J" prepped with gesso and texture was added by using tissue paper, drywall tape and lace.  I also added metal accents, light bulb and I am Roses flowers.  I painted the entire letter using Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays in Ethereal Emerald, Incandescent Copper, Dark Chocolate Truffle and Delphinium Turquoise.  I finished the letter by applying Patina Rub N Buff.  Finally, I mounted the "J" onto a canvas that was covered in burlap and inked using Vintage Photo distress ink.
Wooden "I" was prepped with gesso and texture was added by using tissue paper, drywall tape and lace.  I added elements such as metal accent pieces, twine, computer parts buttons, a light bulb and I am Roses flowers.  I then painted the letter using Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays in Violacious Violet, Phantom Fuchsia, Witch's Potion Purple and Hottie Patottie Hot Pink.  I completed the letter by adding Antique Gold Rub N Buff.  Finally, I mounted the letter onto a canvas that was covered in burlap and edged with Vintage Photo distress ink.

My entry into Lindy's Stamp Gang's Art to the Eggstreme

The eggs were created from plastic Easter Eggs.  I covered them in tissue paper and Mod Podge.  Once they were dry I used Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Sprays in:
Opal Sea Oats
Tawny Turquoise
Tiffany's Blue

I also used Lindy's Embossing Powders in:
Midnight Copper
Bizantine Bronze




  
                              The eggs were photographed in an antique egg basket



                              Finally, I made birds nests out of spanish moss and hot glue.
