Animal Week!

Hello, its Karen here and I am kicking off ANIMAL WEEK today with my favourite mammal..... just has to be the elephant in my eyes....such wonderful creatures.  We can all learn so much from them.  I have used Karen's Elephant (yes that's me) from the ZOO SET LARGE to make up one of Tando's LARGE ARCHES into a wall hanging.  These arches measure approx. 7inches high so are a good size to work on and come in a pack of two for under £2....bargain!


To make the background I covered it with bits of an old book page before sloshing on the paint.  Then I used the SEQUIN WASTE MASK/STENCIL to add some large dots which I quickly drew around with a white pen.  The elephant has been painted with two layers of paint and, while it was still damp, dabbed with some paper towel.  All the edges have been coloured with some chocolate paint.

Here are the TANDO CREATIVE goodies that  used:
