Memory Maze DT share

Today I have some Memory Maze Goodies to share

'Sisters'

I love these Vintage boards they come in several sizes and include a stand, This one is about the size of an A4 piece of paper. First I painted the edges, top swirls and stand in gesso, then I added a piece of paper and inked the edges and top swirls in a couple of different tones.

Using a MMC hot air balloon I didn't quite have the colour I wanted to I sprayed it with glimmer mist and while still wet I sprayed it with a home made white paint spray to soften and blend the colour, I then added a touch of ink to get the perfect colour.

I used a CW template and added a texture paste pattern at the top and bottom of the photo.

Using a bottle of glossy accents I stamped the bottom of the bottle onto the stamp pad and created a few random circle patterns on the paper.

Kaiser Craft stamps used randomly around the paper to give more detail.

I took a Wrought Iron swirl and cut it into 2 and applied the same technique as above but this time I started with  tones of distress ink, I didn't cover the entire piece in ink just little bits of each colour ink but once I sprayed it with the white paint they blended together and lighten giving me the perfect colour.

The second piece of the Wrought Iron Swirl

I used the same technique as before on these MMC cogs this time I used a chalk ink and a mix'd Media ink, once again I didn't cover the entire piece in ink and I sprayed them with just water this time to get them to blend together.

More cogs at the top of the layout.

Large brown Handmade flower I made about 2yrs ago, with glitter added to the tips to match the other Prima flowers used at the top of the stand. 

Prima Flowers used to make a cluster and Prima rhinestone swirl has been cut up and added here and there.

Sisters MMC was embossed, first I applied gesso in a watered down spray, once dry I added a little bit of pink embossing powder to small parts of the word and then coated the whole thing in white mix'd media embossing powder and heated, I applied a second coat to give a think consistent layer.

MMC street lamp has been treated the same as the word this time using a blue and brown embossing powder.

"Perfect Wonder"

A gorgeous photo of a gorgeous girl, I'm a little bias.. even with her dribble drenched shirt and messy hair.

Memory Maze Candle holder was first painted black with distress stains then I went over it in tarnished brass distress stain.

A cute little Memory Maze card size bird cage also treated the same as the candle holder but this time i added a little more black over the top.

Perfect word was painted with black distress stain and then black stickles added

Wonder word also treated the same as the perfect word

Wrought Iron swirl was cut into 3 pieces and treated the same at the words, I tucked 2 in here and the 3rd was tucked in at the bass of the candle holder.
