Bath Bubbles

Hello everyone and happy Thursday!! 

It’s time for a new Lavinia World Challenge featuring Lavinia stamps.

          We are a bi-weekly Challenge Blog and the theme will be Anything Goes using stamps

(either rubber or clear, but no digi stamps). 

                               Details are found under the "rules" tab on the Challenge Blog.

 Lavinia World Challenge has a
NEW Facebook group called, Anything Lavinia (click here) 

 another place where you can enter the Lavinia World Challenge.
With one exception...

Your card/project must include anything Lavinia (stamps, papers)

if added to the Anything Lavinia Facebook group. 

For my project, I used
Lavinia Stamps - Aria - LAV584
Lavinia Stamps - Fairy Orbs - LAV377

The stamps were all stamped with VersaFine Clair - Nocturne

I was inspired to make this wall art based on an old scrapbook page i had saved that i found on line.

It has 4 layers the top 3 have different size circles cut out to make a 3D layered look with the bottom layer not cut. I use We Are 3 Digital Paper.

So before i stamped my image i had to figure out the placement by cutting out the various circles.

Once that was done, i used the stamped acrylic image that the stamp is stuck on to use to see the placement i wanted on the first layer.

I used the platform stamp 2 times to get a good stamp.  Quickly, i embossed the stamped image with clear embossing powder. 

For more stability for each layer, i cut out a thin chipboard and adhered the paper to the chipboard with Mod Podge.

Now, you can embellish the layers if you wish.  I used Distress Ink Oxide to distress the edges of the top and 3rd layer.  For the top layer i used Tim Holtz Stencil - Bubbles ThS138with Distress Texture Paste - Crackle and immediately added Tim Holtz Distress Glaze - Broken China.  I let the crackle paste dry so it would crack.  Then i heat embossed it and it becomes like a china glaze. The 3rd cut out layer, i used Tim Holtz Stencil - Halftone THS144  and did the same process as the first layer.

Now you can attach the layers.  I used foam tape for the 3D look. 

Next i stamped Fairy Orbs on watercolor paper with VersaFine Clair Ink - Nocturne. 

I like the stability of watercolor paper.  Again, i instantly embossed each one with clear embossing powder. 

Recently, i was gifted with Spectrum Noir metallic Pencils.  I decided to try those on the bubbles. I hand cut out each one and attached them in various places on top and in between the layers.

Then i added some Mod Podge Dimensional (like glossy accents) and put some Stampendeous chunky glitter on top and in the fairies lap. 

I decided i want to put this 3D project on a wood art board.

So going into my stash of "altered" things, i found this:

I had considered removing the burlap, and decided i liked the texture and kept it.

I got out my trusty black gesso and covered the sides and part of the top.

You can't see it very well, but i did wax the top and sides with Art Alchemy Waxes.

Heather Hills and Turquoise Satin

Last thing i did was adhere the 3D to the wooden art frame with Mod Podge.
