Hello my artsy friends! I am sharing my necklace that I made using our product feature,
ComposiMold and the
Mixed Media with Gelatos kit that I designed for Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft! Since I have created the original artwork in this kit, I decided to challenge myself and create a wearable piece of artwork.
ComposiMold was a new product to me but I immediately knew I wanted to create something with wings. I loved how easy it was to use... just heat, stir, and pour over items (make sure the items are adhered to the bottom of the container before pouring). I put the mold in the refrigerator to cool faster. You know me, I hate to wait!
Here's what it looked like when firm and removed from the container.
I took the Cold Porcelain clay from the
Mixed Media with Gelatos kit and mixed some with the Gold Champagne Gelato® and pressed it into the wings.
I used some of the map tissue paper to cover some beads that just weren't that pretty! I used the Textural Accents Gel Medium to adhere the paper.
Next, I spread I light layer of the Whipped Spackle with the palette knife on a section of the wood veneer board and then placed the stencil over the layer and added more Whipple Spackle.
Once dry, I added the three Gelato® colors and stamped with
Stamper's Big Brush pen over a rubber stamp. I coated the entire thing with more
Textural Accents Gel Medium.
Here is a good photo of the texture created with the Whipped Spackle.
I cut out the main shape and adhered it to the back of a chipboard doily shape from UmWow Studios. A gear, brad and the molded wings were added.
See that bead I covered? So cute!
I used a hinge and stamped on it with the Stamper's Big Brush Pen. Just a fun accent.
I can't wait to wear this with a fun outfit and show off these colors and fun products! I have a blast creating this unique wearable art and I hope you enjoyed it today! Leave a comment on the
