Clock tutorial

Good evening/morning, whichever it is?

I think I've lost about 22 hours somewhere, I've been a bit busy, that's why this is late.

So, the clock then...

 

 

This is where we're headed.

 

Scrape Grunge paste through your stencil onto your canvas/greyboard, leave to dry or gently heat with heat tool.

 

Paint with red acrylic paint, let it dry.

 

 

Paint over the red with black acrylic paint

 

Before black paint dries, dab with a baby wipe to remove lots of the black, let it dry.

 

The next step is to dry brush the piece with gold acrylic paint.

 

For the butterflies and numbers to match, paint a couple of pieces of card red, let it dry.

Drag a little black paint over the red.

Now stamp and cut out your butterflies and numbers, glaze the numbers with clear embossing or glossy accents, whichever you prefer.

 

Hope you like it!
