My Art Journal Cover - last project for RKS

Hello dears!

Here today to share with you mylast project created for Retro Kraft Shop an Art Journal cover.


 I have in my stash this Tim Holtz Fabric and I decided to use it but you can perfectly replace it with the Tim Holtz paper with the same design from the gorgeous Wallflower paper Stash.

In order to protect the paper  I gave it a coat of  Clear Gesso. Next step I used a stencil and Light paste to get some more interest to the cover. I just love Finnabair's silicone Brush it so much easier to get an even coat with it. I left the texture white so it will separate between the paper and the cluster.  I than assembled the composition with the beautiful Clock background chipboard painted with Dark Forest and French Orange  Art Alchemy Metallic Paints and Iris Potion Sparks Art Alchemy Paints
I did the same with the Cabochons I also brushed on both a little bit of White gold and Aged Brass Metalic Waxes. After adhering it to the cover I added some Screw heads and Hexagons.
In the center  I placed die-cut flowers and a Metal Butterfly on which I glued mini numbers on top.
Final step was to adhere one of the lovely signs with Heavy body Gel.

After all was in place and  dry I had to give every thing a touch of White gesso.

Hope you like it! Here are some close ups:
