Texture week with Fiona.

 
 
Morning and welcome to another project created using this weeks theme TEXTURE.
 
This project is brimming with crackle and texture applied to a triple layered tag using the
 Tags Mega Bundle, Long Tags  and the Hearts Mega Pack from Tando.
 
 
The long tag and small tag were given the crackle treatment using DecoArt chalky finish paints and Crackle medium for chalk paint. Next up was to apply texture sand paste to the bottom of the long tag and the bottom and top edges of the small tag. 3d balls were then added using DecoArt heavy gel medium to the bottom of the long tag for added texture. Raw Umber Media fluid acrylic was then applied neat and in washes to both tags. Then Dark wax applied.
 
To the medium tag modelling paste was applied through the small distressed harlequin stencil. Once dry a coat of DecoArt chalky finish in Treasure was applied to the whole tag. Dark wax was then applied and wiped back to highlight the texture. The edges were then swiped with DecoArt Metallic Lustre in burnished brass to finish.
 
The small frame from France Papillion's Tag kit was assembled and given the texture treatment on the inside and the outside swiped with metallic lustre in burnished brass.
The hearts were then painted and triple embossed respectively and attached to the frame.
A resin embellishment was then given the same paint treatment as the medium tag and attached to the bottom of the long tag.
Al tags were then assembled atop of each other after attaching offcuts of grey board to the backs to give depth and dimension.
Finally a vellum LOVE  word was added to the bottom of the small tag to finish.
