Tando Creative

This week over on the Tando Creative Blog the theme is "Deck the Halls" - so with Christmas in mind my choice of piece is the Christmas Tree Printers Tree.....


I adhered the shaped pieces with strong pva glue then painted the entire piece and the back piece with green paint, when dry I painted them again with distress rock candy crackle paint and then attached the sections to the back plate....taking a selection of Christmas minis, stockings, christmas ornaments, snowmen, candles, wonky tress, bells and holly, snowflakes and stars which were off set against the main star cut into the frame (the bow on the ornaments is off the present set) I coloured them using various mediums and added hi-lights using posca pens and glossy accents....I then adhered them to the frame using pva glue and silicone gel to gain height.....a bit of bling was added to the centre of the snowflakes and the star and bow...

Don't forget to pop over to the Tando blog during the week as there are loads of great inspiration and each week there is a different theme too....
