Seahorse family - Tutorial

Hi everyone,

many of you have expressed a desire to see on my crafty table 

This is of course impossible, pure chaos, I must tell you ;-)

But joking aside,

today I will show you, how I made my seahorses 

 

 Supplies:

 

 

1. draw a seahorse on cardboard, use a free clipart for example:

 2. cut out

(unfortunately I don't know a company that produced this, but a good idea in MDf, or ;-))

3. use leftovers from scrapbookpaper or other, embossed it with a folder

4. glue it on front side

5. reverse this and cut off the excess paper

6.  use stamps and 

smeared the gaps and edges of the paper with gesso and palette knife 

use embellishments or shells or dies or all what you can find on the beach

and give it in the yet moist Gesso

 finally I used Metallic Lustre for accents on the surface

that's all my friends

and I have a lot of fun with this sweeties in our bathroom :-)

I hope that was a little help for you! 

Challenges:
