Hello everyone I know it's been a while but I'm back and this time with an Easter Egg project!

First I started with 2 coats of White Gesso on the Eggs stippled on with a Stencil Brush and let that dry.

Then I added some Foil Duct Tape that I ran through my Big Shot with an Embossing Folder and cut into small squares.

 I used a different Embossing Folder for each Egg to add some variation.

 Then I added a few resin pieces from my stash, some IOD Molded pieces from the Keyhole mold and a few others.
Then I began adding Acrylic Paint in 4 colors FolkArt... 481 Aqua first on the embellishments. Then some Americana Raw Umber to the rest of the Eggs and just a bit to the embellishments.


I followed that with some Delta Ceramcoat in Burnt Sienna randomly painted and just a touch of Apple Barrel Antique Gold which is more of an Ocher color than a true Metallic Gold.
These were just the acrylic paint I had on hand so use any brand you have to simulate the rust.


Now, I'm aware that Rust doesn't Patina and Vise Versa but I looked at it more like these were once pretty Turquoise Easter Eggs that got lost, buried and rusted. I finished them off with just a bit of the DecoArt Metallic Lustre in Rich Espresso and behold...Patina & Rust Easter Eggs!

So that's it for this week on the blog...Till Next Time!
