Here are some close ups...

I love to get my texture, through paper layers & chipboard layers. Here is a close up, showing some of the layering. I painted the bottom part of the Elegant chain with clear crackle, then placed the top part on while the crackle was still wet. I let that dry then painted the crackle part with Shimmerz inklings chocolate & Diamonds, & the top with Lindys, Magical, cream brulee cream. I then glued that piece onto the brick window. I dipped the Ivy Flourish in water, then gently lifted the edges. I  used a heat gun to dry it ( this also helps to make the edges curl up). Once the Ivy Flourish was completely dry, I applied a coat of clear crackle, I let that dry, then painted it with LuminArt' Silk, Teal Zircon & Vintage Mint. I glued that onto the Ivy Flourish...

The flowers used, are older flowers that I had on hand, from IamRoses. I altered them by removing the flower centers, then painting them with Ranger Perfect Pearls, Pearl, once they dried, I glued on the seed beads for the flower centers...

I painted the pot & columns with the clear crackle, let dry, then painted it with the Inklings chocolate & diamonds. I used the crackle also on the bricks. On the under piece I used the chocolate & diamonds & on the bricks I used the creame brulee...

I painted the Marrakesh Trellis with the Cream Brulee, glued it down, then glued on the seed beads & pearls..
