Greetings!
I love the combination of
black/cream damask with rich red.
This classy combination turned out beautifully
on this 5x7 wall hanging.
I
started with a layer of book paper then added damask tissue paper by
Hallmark, adhering and sealing with Mod Podge. The heart is made using
the Large Heart Stencil by Wendy Vecchi. First I put down a light coat of gesso then colored it in with Faber Castell Gelatos. I
used just a little pink in the center but mostly used red, blending it
with my fingers. The shading is done with Faber Castell Big Brush Pen in
cold grey III. The metal key comes in a brass finish and I colored it
with Tim Holtz Distress Stain in brushed pewter. The words are in the "Traveling Typewriter" font. The edges of the piece and the words are distressed with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in black soot.
The products I used can be purchased at the amazing eclectic Paperie online store, I have linked them up for you!
