PaperArtsy Coaster Project.

Hiya! Well it's been lots of fun over at PaperArtsy's Blog! Darcy Wilkinson is guest designer & I've had a go at her coaster project...
 
I started with plain cork coasters that I sealed with a coat of Mod Podge. I then gave them a coat of DecoArt acrylic paint in Beached Sand. I did this because my Fresco paints are the translucent kind! (I have since ordered a few more in opaque...Shh!)
 

Once dry, a few squibs of Frescos in London Bus, Hey Pesto, Beach Hut & Pumpkin soup & then spread with my trusty Love film freebie card!
 
 
I was more slap dash than Darcy & I really wasn't sure if this was going to turn out very well!
I sprayed Dylusions in Bubblegum Pink & Vibrant Turquiose over some sequin waste. I was going to use a floral stencil but I cant find it! (That will keep me awake tonight!)
 
 
Once dry, I then brayered acrylic paint in Titanium White onto them. ( Hadn't got any Snowflake!)
 
 
I used Posy Petals Quatro stamps & an ink blot stamp from the Ageing Beautifully set by Sheena Douglass.
 
 
 
 
Once dry, I took a babywipe & rubbed back to the colours underneath. I then sealed them with Matte Mod Podge.
Voila!
 
I love them! They are for my living room... I wondered why I'd been drawn to those colours!
 
Hope you like them too! Thanks for stopping by!

    They are really lovely, and great colours. I always wondered what to do with all the free love film cards we get - know I know.

      They come in so handy! I use them for smoothing when I'm sticking stuff down too! Thanks for the kind comments! Sez x
