Altered Tissue Box Cover by Amanda M

8/24/2019

Helloooooo Everyone.....
Today I have a tutorial for beginners,
using Stencilling & Finnabair Opal Magic Paints and Waxes.

Then I did some stencilling with a Little Birdie Stencil and Tim Holtz Distress Grit Paste.( I love this stuff, it has a great texture when it is dry.
So I have started with an old
tissue box cover that I
had started to decorate, but didnt
like the direction it was taking....
Plus it had been sitting around
for a while...LOL

When totally dry give a good coat of Black Gesso, (I used Little Birdie Brand).
I then glued heaps of Art Pebbles all over.

Once it is completely dry start building your colours up by gently dry brushing each colour all over, keep going back in and adding until you are happy with the results. The more you layer the colours the more they change, so maybe do a little experiment on a bit of paper
painted with black gesso. If you feel you are not happy just paint over with black gesso and start over.

Picture
I have also used the wax on the filigree metal corners and glued them on.

Now another coat of Black Gesso all over,
making sure not to miss any parts.

Picture
To make the pebbles stand out a bit more I have used Finnabair's Vintage Gold Wax.
Make sure you are lighthanded when applying because a little goes a long way.

And that is it.
a fabulous home decor
project or gift.
Happy Creating.

    About Me

    Hellooooo Everyone...
    My name is Amanda Mason.
    I am a Mixed Media Artist, Instructor and Product Educator....
    I was bought up as a farm girl in rural NSW, but now live in a small coastal village called Cooloola Cove in QLD. I have always been a creative person and have a Diploma of Multimedia and Graphic Design. I have wanted to blend that with Mixed Media, which I have been doing since about 2015...I love to use dimension, texture and layers of elements to make my creations, it’s all about experimenting and exploring with products and what
    they can do.....
    I hope you enjoy following me on my creative journey.....
