LIVE YOUR DREAMS

...one's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things...
- Henry Miller -



...hello everyone, hope you've all had a groovy week and managed to see some sunshine...
...the last few evenings I've had a little play with some DecoArt products, I hope you like...


...I brushed some Texture Crackle over the entire tag, slightly thicker at the top and bottom and waited for it to dry, then I cut the heart, wings and crown from Tim Holtz Heart Wings die...the heart was give a super thick coat of the Texture Crackle and left over night to dry...


...the tag was then painted with Traditions Acrylic's...


...the crown was given a dusting of Glamour Dust...


...the crackled heart was coated in Metallics Elegant Finish with a dusting of Glamour Dust then covered in Glossy Accents...the wings were painted with Traditions Acrylic and again coated in Metallics Elegant Finish which I wiped back...



...a few chit chat stickers...


...have a wonderful day and thank you for dropping by...
