The only key to success is hard work

The only Key to Success is hard work and Dedication...

this is what i actually believe..

This project I created to put it on my own Art journal and it's very close to my heart as I have made it for Scrapbooking world championships organised by Academy of Scrapbooking and Arts. I really feel so lucky to be a part of this championship.

Steps I followed
1.This is created by putting multilayers of different metal emblishments as well as wooden emblishments.

2. But before arranging these emblishments I prepared my base by covering with clear gesso and lots of stamping and gold embossing.

3.I gave a layer of stencilling by applying modelling paste and used the coordinating stencils with my stamp sets

4.I also embossed few cardstocks and used them as one of the layers

5. I also used textured cardstock to create metallic impressions on my project. And also gave tiny details by putting extra dots to give some rivets and welding metal effects

6. I cut small punched circles and cut them from the Centers to create some screw effects.

7.I sticked 4 die cuts together to create some emblishments from dies.

8. Few parts I have painted desperately and stocked on the base.

9. The quote I have taken a print as per the size of my wooden emblishment window and stock.

10. The final touch I gave by applying different shades of acrylic paints. Specially I used Orange and Sap Green shades to give earthen look to my project

11. Further highlights I have given with white Jesso.

12.Lastly I gave a dry brushing with metallic gold paint to give a very ethnic look as my taste is very much vintage and antique

So in my mix media I covered all following techniques

1.Preparing base with multistamping
2.Putting layers of stencils
3.Created emblishments with die cuts
4.Created texture by mixing sand to the texture paste, embossed cardstocks and by using textured cardstock
5.Gave metal plate touch by adding few dots and screw effects on textured cardstock.
6. In painting I used mostly dry brush techniques and gold embossing

Material I used :
Prima - Art Basics - Gesso - Clear
