I have attend a couple of classes with the very talented Andy Skinner over the years. I have enjoyed them very much! I Love his techniques!
Today I will show a tag I made using Andy,s stamps, stencils and Deco art media fluid acrylics.
First I made the background using a Tando Creative greyboard tag. I started to use one of Andy,s stencils with texture paste. Then a couple of washes with Sap green, Paynes grey and Quinacridone gold. I finished it off by stamping with one of Andy,s background stamps.
I coloured the skull stamp with washes of paynes grey, then crackle glaze and after that some antiquing cream in the crackles. Nice effect!
On the bookplate I used one of Andy,s rust techniques.
Before I glued the stamp on to the tag I finished it off with some rusty wire.
Thanks for visiting, have a nice Sunday!
