It's a Mesh - Part II

Today is the Funkie posting for Frilly and Funkie and I am filling in on the Funkie side again this time.  The challenge is hosted by Pamellia Johnson and she has challenged us to create a vintage or shabby chic project using any type of mesh (crinoline, cheesecloth, tulle, burlap, canvas etc).

I decided to use two kinds of mesh - a rusted metal screen and burlap.  I wanted to make a fall piece again this week and started with a piece of Speciality Stamping Paper.  I gold embossed using Tim Holtz's Flourish stamp and then applied various brown colors of Alcohol inks.  I went over the alcohol ink, blending it with Gold Alcohol Ink Mixative.

Then I took the rusted screen and affixed it to my background with copper brads and then used Prima Copper Crackle Paste over a Tim Holtz Mini leaf stencil.  A couple of Tim Holtz dies were used to cut the greenery - the Spring Greeney strip die and Fall Foliage Thinlits die.  They were colored with Rusty Hinge and Vintage Photo distress inks plus sprayed with Prima Color Bloom 2 Pot Marigold, Poppy Filed and Spring Dandelion.  I grabbed a couple of acorns from my back yard and removed the nut, replacing them with the new Tim Holtz Baubles that were coated with with Copper Alcohol Ink Mixative.

My sentiment 'Blessed' was a rub-on adhesive from Prima and foiled with copper foil.  It was applied to a thin piece of acrylic film that was cut with the Tim Holtz Labels Thinlits die set.  My last embellishment was a Prima Grungy Butterfly.








The above piece was made with the products below.  They are available at The Funkie Junkie Boutique where Tim Holtz, Ranger and other name brand products are always 20% below MSRP.
