H O M E


I decided to take Friday off from work to do a little bit of crafting and amongst other things made a wall hanging which I haven't done before. 

Ingredients

Home Hanging from Tando Creative
Gelli Plate
Acrylic paints - assorted colours Almond,  Light Magenta, Pale Peach, Pearlescent  Blue and Gold
Versafine Ink - Onyx Black and Deep Lagoon
Archival Brilliance ink pad - Peacock
Distress Inks - assorted colours Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Squeezed Lemonade, Dusty Concord, Tumbled Glass, Fired Brick and Peacock Feathers
Inkylicious Stamps - Vintage Birds and Flutters 1
Ribbon - Burgundy with gold running through it

I created the background using the Gelli Plate with peach, magenta and almond paint, once dry I coloured it further with distress inks through punchinella for added interest and distressed the edges with gold paint.

The HOME letters were painted using the pearlescent blue paint and distressed a little bit with gold, once dry the letters were stuck to the background using pinflair glue.

I stamped the flowers with part of the pattern from the Inkylicious vintage bird stamp using fired brick DI, then the butterflies were stamped with the flutters 1 stamps using either the Versafine or Archival ink pads. Once dry they were coloured using DI and edged with a little bit of gold paint and attached to the background. Finally I attached the ribbon to hang it up and thread the pieces together.
