Clockwork Heart Mini Book by Hannah Oxberry

Hi all, so it's Crackle Week here at Tando Towers! Crackle is one of my favourite ways to add texture to a project, I love the aged look it gives. Today I would like to share with you a mini book, featuring a crackled heart.


The mini book itself has been layered with DecoArt Textured Sand Paste, painted in metallic silver and then washes have been applied. 

The main focus of the piece is the heart, layered generously with DecoArt Crackle paint, this has been painted in red, washes applied to darken and distress, areas of the red have been rubbed back and finally finished with dry brushing to highlight the textures within the crackles.


The heart is sandwiched between cogs that have been given the rust treatment to add further detail and texture to the design.

I hope you have enjoyed this mini book, until next time!
