Dimension
The challenge at Make My Monday this week is to add some dimension to the project. I've done this in a fairly simple way with multiple layers. The embossed panel has some red gilding wax added to highlight the texture; the next layer had texture paste applied through a stencil mask. then coloured with Distress ink; the car was from Creative Expressions stamped and embossed; fancy metal brads rubbed with gilding wax were added to the wheels. I finally added a couple of tickets and a bow tied with some pieces of red waxed cord left from making a bracelet (knew it was worth saving them!!).

Good Morning Val. I love this, a fantastic make. The texture just bring it all together beautifully. Hugs Rita xxx
ReplyDeleteThe colours are super & I love the brad wheels - had to smile over your waxed cord. Like how your 'jaunty' ticket echoes the chevrons in patterned paper too.
