Hey friends!

LITTLE BIRDIE PRODUCTS

STEP 1 : Applied Little Birdie’s black gesso to cover the box.

STEP 2 : After the gesso dried, took a stone stencil and Little Birdie texture paste and did random stencilling.

STEP 3 : Adhered some lace, primed chipboard, and embellishments with Litle Birdie soft gel medium.

STEP 5: Using black Gesso covered up everything once again and then did dry brushing with white gesso over it.

STEP 6 : Sprayed Color Splash – Gold Rush over it.

STEP 7: On the sides of the box I have applied Little Birdie embossing texture paste ( Aquatini) with stone stencil. You need to heat set this paste to achieve fluffiness. After that, painted blue and top white gesso with dry brushing.

STEP 8: On top of the box I have done dry brushing with, gold, red, blue, green, and also used Antique Gold and Bronze metallic wax to highlight certain areas.

STEP 9: Finally adhered some metallic microbeads (Ruby Red) with soft gel medium to highlight the project.
