SplodgeAway Easy Ink or High Elegance Card Stock
Viva Silver Croco Paste
Copper Pearl Liquid Pearls
Gesso
Acrylic paint
Baby wipes
SplodgeAway Masks, I have used:

SplodgeAway Wooden Frames
String
Take a piece of SplodgeAway Card Stock and apply gesso on each side. Leave to dry or slowly heat with a heat tool.
When the gesso is dry pick some acrylic paint up on a wet wipe and create your own unique background. To create the lines use something like a old credit card, pick up some acrylic paint and in a scratching motion place on the card.
Using one of your chosen masks place it over the cardstock. To keep the mask in place try using a stick and spray adhesive
Cover the mask using a credit card with Croco. The thicker the layer the bigger the cracks.
When the Croco has dried and cracked, rub in liquid pearls to give a nice shine to the mask.
Repeat this process for each panel of your hanging.
The wooden frames have been decorated with gesso and very carefully heated up until it bubbles.
Dimply used the following masks for her projects:
When you use any paints or pastes with the mask ensure they are cleaned with warm water and soap to clean them. The sooner the better,
Thank you to everybody for taking the time to visit the blog and also to Dimply for the great tutorial.
Enjoy your weekend,
