Christmas Wreath Board

Back again with my finished Wreath Board.  I realised near the end that there was

a danger it might be more oval than round, having the doily base came

in very handy to keep to the shape intended.

 

 

 

 

I used a large paper doily (with centre cut out)  glued this to the board as

a base and guide before adding two coats of

gesso followed by paint.  I then used a large crackle stamp with

white paint for the background.

 

 

 

 

 

I glued all the various metal bits, other die cuts I had

covered with metal paint or gilding paste to give

a metal finish.

 

 

I added colour with ink sprays, alcohol inks, gilding paste and

acrylic silk paints. Glued accent beads to all the gaps.

 

 

 

 

Back later with my latest Christmas Tree Board but in black!!!!
