part two.....

Camera charged and lighting OK....

So the frame went through a multitude of colour changes before I settled on a really dark brown with gold highlights a mixture of a few alcohol inks and a metal fixative and the end result looks like an old leather journal...

Add dimension through foam tape and making a panel raised or sunken to add further detail to the overall piece. And the metal corners add a really nice touch to the feel I was trying to create.

Panel three....The front door

I wanted to make a little wreath for the door and create a picture through the frosted glass.

The wreath is a silver pipe cleaner and I have applied Lettuce green alcohol ink over the top to make it appear like a real garland.

Behind the window you can see a scrapware chandlier and the tree was already on the paper. Some ornate corners and this panel is complete..simple.

Panel four... the Rooftop.

This panel iss the only one that is incomplete because there is meant to be a pitter patter of reindeer on the roof and unfortunately I forgot to collect them from Ange....

I plan to put ribbons and some mini scrapware baubles around the reindeers neck and glitterise him....I am hoping two will look ok.... so imagine......until I can repost the complete frame..

the complete project...

Thank you for visiting and I will see you again next year..
