Princess

 My little Princess hanger.
Another very simple make.

I use Tongue and Groove wood for my hangers now.
They have a wood cutter in Homebase, so I had them 
cut to my measurement and straight! (Sorry hubby!!)

When I got home, out came my heavy duty knife
and I cut off the tongues!!! Ouch!!Lol!!
I then glued them into the grooves!!

Then husband drilled the holes. Job done!
Then the fun started!

 I made the Princess out of my paper clay and 
left her to dry overnight.
I mixed the clay with colours, so I didn't have to 
paint all of her.

I made the paper background with Distress Inks
and then glued it onto the wood.
I edged it with my Gold Gilding Wax.....Love the smell of it!!!
I  also put some G Wax on her hair as hi-lights.


I cut the letters with a die and added the paper flowers
 and clay leaves. 
The middle rose is actually a dark rose but looks red in photo!

Just a quick post, so you won't get bored!

Thanks for your lovely comments on my last post.
Hope you will leave me a couple on this one.
That way I know you have popped in for a look!!

Big hugs,

Mystical!

Thank you for your lovely comments on my
last post. I am so enjoying myself with the clay!!

So far this is my favourite piece, followed by my Ellie 
with balloons.

The Unicorn is a Katy Sue mould.
I first used white clay and when it had dried out
then the fun began!! 

It started with Copper H20 paint.
Then black acrylic paint.
Finally, gold gilding wax.
At last I had the grungy look I wanted.
And a 'Gold Finger'!!!


The colours are better seen in RL.


Well a quick post today, as I have been working on my 
current project for 2 days and it's still not complete!

Just heared on the radio, that the UK is going to be hit with
a lot of snow, possibly next week.
They are not sure where it will be though! Lol!!

Thanks for taking time out to visit me.
You know I will always comment 
on your posts too. 
Would be rude not to!!!Lol!!

Big hugs,
Carol
