THE E TEAM

LET'S RIDE!!

***********

Hey Peoples!! I'm super psyched to be a member of the E Team!! When Daisy called me this past holiday weekend to ask me to join in this new adventure, there was NO WAY that I could say no!!

Now, being that I jumped onto this ride a tad late, I don't have a new project to share with you. But I did want to share a previous project that I had done using a new artistic medium that I have been exploring recently. METAL. For those of you who have been here before, remember this frame that I altered?

And more specifically this?

This rose embellishment was made from TenSeconds Studio metal that is colored aluminum on one side and silver on the back side. Using alcohol inks I colored the plain aluminum side. I then used T!m Holtz's Tattered Floral die and after debossing the front of the metal with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder, I followed this tutorial to put together my rose. The leaves were hand drawn on some scrap plain aluminum metal and again colored using alcohol inks. If you would like a more detailed outline on how I made this, please refer back to the original post which can be found HERE.
