'Jane' MDF Hanging Heart

 

I made this MDF heart for the Indigo Blu Challenge which is your favourite stamp, and the Eclectic Paperie Get Altered Challenge which is Hearts. I painted the heart with Fresco Finish paints in Pansy, Lilac, and Eggplant and then mixed some of the paint with Kroma Krackle and spread it around the three 'corners'. Once it had crackled I rubbed on some Treasure Gold in Ice Fire and stamped the heart with the script stamp from Sarah's Choice in Vibrant Violet Archival Ink. I coloured Jane, my favourite Indigo Blu stamp, with Fresco Finish paints. I stamped the Dinkie Butterfly, which is actually quite large, on tissue paper, and painted it with Frescos before adhering to grunge paper and painted it with Fresco Gloss Glaze. I then painted some shrink plastic with Frescos in Limelight, Claret, and Green Olives, and stamped with a selection of flowers and the leaves from Live, Laugh, Love. I finished off with some ribbon to hang the heart by, and some pearls for Jane's earrings.

    She looks just perfect on the heart - so brilliantly painted... with just that gentle blush to her cheeks. Beautiful, Lucy!
