Tiny Tin

Today I gave another Fossil tin a timeworn treatment. (Thank you, Caroline, for the tiny tin - it was just perfect for the ornament I wanted to use on it!)

This is the result of some die cutting (the "baroque ornament" is a Sizzlits die) from black foam rubber and glueing the ornament onto the tin, some acrylic paint coating and dry brushing and the use of a stud, which I treated with alcohol inks:



Some close-ups too of course:











Hope you like it! I am entering SSSS's "messy" challenge with it.

Wishes,

  16. That was a terrific idea to cut the ornament from foam rubber as it gives the piece so much dimension. Love the way you have created so much texture too. Tis is a beautiful piece. Anne x
