Wintery tree hanging by Donna Gray.
Hi everyone,
It's Donna here today and I thought as we're nearly into Winter now (shudder) then it's time for a Wintery creation.
I took a really thick piece of cardboard and covered it with a layer of white Decoart Crackle paint and set it aside to air dry.
While that was drying, I stamped the awesome tree from Carved Whimsy Wood onto a scrap of Gelli printed paper and fussy cut it out.
When the background had dried and cracked, I added the tree to the background and started to add all the other pieces too. Under the tree is a lollipop stick covered with sand texture paste and painted with rusty coloured acrylic paints. Another little strip of Gelli printed paper was added below the lollipop stick.
I cut a little piece of Calico fabric out and then added a heart cut from some painted scrap paper.
The finishing touches were to add a small metal disc, some twine and some sentiments from Tim Holtz. I used my Cropodile to make the holes for the hanging, added the eyelets and used a piece of thick twine to hang it up with.
There you have my very Wintery tree just in time for the first biting winds, frost, snow, ice etc etc :)
Hope you like it
