Liquid Sculpting Medium Paper Artsy Challenge

As soon as I saw the latest topic on the Paper Artsy blog I knew I wanted to take part.

I haven't got much free time at the moment but I wanted to use it wisely.

My liquid sculpting medium of choice is Powertex.  You will have seen the ornament that I made my mum for Mother's Day..... it's great fun to use.... in fact I am a little bit addicted to the stuff!

So.... here is my project which I am entering for the challenge

I started of by taking a Paper Artsy Grey Board and I covered this with bronze Powertex.

I then took a strip of fabric and saturated this with Powertex before positioning it on the grey board.

I did the same with a frame and a cameo.

I also took some glass beads and positioned them in a couple of places.  I then poured some Powertex over them.  At this point I was worried because I thought I had created sludge!

This is what it looked like before it dried.

Here is a picture of part of my 'sludge'!

Once fully dry (over night) I sealed everything with a varnish.

Once dry, I then set about with various colours of Treasure Gold.

Here is a close up of the beads with Treasure Gold on them....

I tried to create an aged look to the frame.  Before my project started it was a cheap plastic white frame!

This next photo shows some of the texture on the fabric

To finish my project I stamped a Lin Brown quote onto brown card and manipulated it in my hands to give it some movement.

I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed creating this project.  In fact - if I wasn't so busy at the moment I would probably be creating more!

So.... there you have it - my finished creation for the Paper Artsy challenge.

Thanks for looking
