Ready to be festively distressed once again? The
Dream Team have been playing with
Ranger's Distress Paints, and are ready to inspire you to be distressed as well...paint distressed that is!
Dreamweaver Stencils are the perfect choice to mix with all things festively distressed, as nothing shows off color and texture better than great designs. By following our hop and leaving love along the way, you have the opportunity to win a great prize package including five Ranger Distress Paints and five Dreamweaver Stencils! Here's the lineup for today, including our November Guest Designer:
This is also our first posting day featuring our new monthly challenge, "Holiday Celebrations", and for the entire month we will be demonstrating ways to use
Beacon Adhesives' entire line of products with
Dreamweaver to create special projects in home decor and gifts of love. Here's mine:
I purchased a plaque made from a slice of black slate at a local craft store, and adhered a torn sheet of music with
Beacon Fast Finish over the surface. When dry, I used the dabber bottle of Ranger's
Tim Holtz Distress Paint in
Broken China over the surface as a wash, with some softer swipes of
Frayed Burlap around the edges to soften them. When dry, I paste-embossed the
Dreamweaver Season of Joy in
white and covered it with
ultra fine crystal glitter. Once dry, I added a sculpted paste "snowbank" at the bottom and covered it with
chunkier glitter. I had purchased a small tree, and applied
Picket Fence Distress Paint over the branches, and sprinkled more
glitter. (Notice a sparkly theme going here?) I trimmed the back of the tree to make it fit against the plaque better. A skinny strip of music was distressed with more paint and wrapped around the tree before adhering to the plaque with
Beacon FabriTac. A few crystals on the star, a luscious bow from
May Arts was almost the finale...but no, I had to add paste to a pine cone with, yes, more
glitter!

Lol. I can relate to all the glitter. Love the background color. I like how you used fine glitter for the background and chunkier glitter for the foreground. I'll bet the slate base gives the whole project a nice texture.
