Princess of the Sea - Patricia Basson

Hello dear Blog Friends

Dusty Attic's latest chipboard release futured the cutest Marine Mechanical sea creatures!
Today I have used the Small Seahorse and dressed her all feminine and be-jeweled
all ready for a night on the Town...or should I say a night on the Coral Reef....



I used a sheet of Blue Fern Studio paper, Juliann's Dream from the Ombre Dreams collection to cover my Notebook. I primed the paper with a layer of clear Gesso and used a Stamperia Stencil, Steampunk, and crackle paste to add texture to the background and the edges of the book. 

The chipboards were primed with white Gesso. I then painted them all with Honey Mustard Paint from Deco Art. And then I just went ahead and played with several paints and waxes until I was satisfied with the look. I wanted a bit of a girly look for her, therefor I used Pinks and Purples and Yellows...She got a Crown on her head and a few Gemstones too add to her Party look...and Yes...I forgot to glue her little Diamond eye on, she does have it on now at least...












To color I used the following, Iris from Cadence, Crackling Campfire and Saltwater Taffy Distress Paints and Flickering Candle Mica Stain from Tim Holtz, Shabby Pink and Sweet Rose Waxes from Finnabair. 



Please visit the Dusty Attic On-line Shop to see all the newly added Marine designs...





We ourselves feel
 that what we are doing
 is just a drop in the ocean. 
But the ocean 
would be less
 because of that missing drop.
