Altered Butterfly Wall Art

Hello everyone!
Today I am back here with a brand new project! Presenting Butterfly wall art to you!
For this project I was provided with some Deco Mache paper from the store. I was a bit skeptical about how this paper is any different than the decoupage napkins we all have used in the past or how this is easy to use than napkins. So when I got the pack I noticed the paper has a very smooth finish its super thin and extremely easy to use! This is one product that I would definitely recommend to
all the decoupage newbies as its so easy to use. It barely gives any wrinkles and the tiny bit of wrinkles that are formed are so easy to remove with the special decoupage spatula we have in our store!

Next I've used  Kaisercraft Magnolia Groove die cuts one thing I love about these die cut packs is that it saves you from all the fussy cutting and these packs match a lot of papers not just the paper pad of the collection but a lot more. Like this specific die cut pack matched my deco mache paper so perfectly!

I've also done some texturing on my project using the Gold embossing paste and the ranger texture paste. I used the magicals that were in my little lindy's- pink set. I added a little bit of the magicals powder to my texture paste and mixed it well I just loved the bright pink it created!






Hope you all like my project!
Feel free to ask any questions! Do leave some love!
Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs

Decoupage with Ice Resin: Steampunk Tag

Namaste Guys

What is Decoupage?

Decoupage (or découpage) is the art of decorating an object by gluing colored paper cutouts onto it in combination with special painteffects, gold leaf and so on. Commonly an object like a small box or an item of furniture is covered by cutouts from magazines or from purpose-manufactured papers. Each layer is sealed with varnishes (often multiple coats) until the "stuck on" appearance disappears and the result looks like painting or inlay work. The traditional technique used 30 to 40 layers of varnish which were then sanded to a polished finish.

Watch the full video tutorial of the Tag in the making . The Resin was so versatile and easy to use as a decoupage medium and also as a glue!








The best part about using Ice Resin as a decoupage agent you don't need to use any glue or varnish and you get a really awesome finish.
