Hello Creatives,
Relating to the current situation, we can learn a lesson from the butterfly beginning it’s life crawling along the ground, then spinning a cocoon, patiently waiting until the day it will fly.
“The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.” – Be like a Butterfly & enjoy & live every moment of your life.
Let’s start the project.
Step 1 :
Draw a butterfly or you can also take a print on a paper & give a coat of clear gesso to prep the surface.
Spray alcohol splash on the gessoed surface & fussy cut the butterfly.
Next, take a chipboard of 2mm & draw an outline & stick the chipboard base to the butterfly.
Step 2:
Apply a coat of Decor Varnish to the colored surface, this will retain the color. let it dry.
Step 3:
Give a thin coat of resin which makes it look glossy & adds volume to it. Let it dry over night.
Take some beautiful handmade flowers, chipboard designs, micro beads, shells & craft pellets to decorate the butterfly.
Now with dry brush technique apply Sparkle Paste Mulberry Glaze to give a shimmery look to the flowers. here I chose to decorate only one half of it.
Note: I have uses silicon glue to stick the embellishments.
Here are a few clicks of the finished project.
Hope you will like it.
