Old treasure

Hi friends,

After watching so many inspirational projects from old treasure YouTube hop, i did not want to miss this opportunity to take part in mini contast and couldn't stop myself to start...

I collacted old frame, all die cuts, chipboard pieces, an old book fold art which I created from a cell phone manual just to try, jute cord,a small piece of brick effect which I created for one of my video  tutorial,corrugated sheet, few unused emblishments and a small mask I made almost 10 years back with some air drying sand clay by hobby ideas....

Applied a mixture of gesso, heavy body gel, and sand on frame and wrapped jute cord on the frame...
After that I fixed up my chipboard with bricks

Arranged all the elements as shown in the picture.. I also stick 4 to 5 same die cuts togather to make it stiff like chipboard and used it to create this old treasure....

Cover each part with black gesso 

Applied earthen and traditional shades of acrylic paints

Firstly I applied direct shades on black gesso 

After it dries, I applied second coat with lighter shades using dry brush techniques 

After 2nd coat of lighter shade I applied gesso to highlight again with dry brushing 

After finishing my colouring with dry brushing I used these three shades of lindy's stamp gang i.e. bombshell black,yellow rose of Texas and metropolitan pink.

Now here I have not mixed water in these bottles but I used dry powder from bottle and applied these dry shades with fingers

And you get a lovely  pearly shine with these shades

Finished my project arranging few more die cuts and Mayberry flowers and some leaves I cut from prima marketing dies

Here sharing few angles of my project tried taking lights falling from different  directions hope you like it....
