I
believe that giving someone a gift of your heart should reflect who you
are. I am a rusty ole broad who has the eternal hope of spring and if
you have the right key you can have my heart.
I come from a fine art rather than a craft background so I approach art
differently. I am shooting a video for a class with Artful Gathering
later in the year on molds, casting and armatures so this is a sample of
one of my project ideas.
SUPPLIES
Paper Maché Mold
Creative Paperclay®
Burnt Umber Acrylic Paint
Tumeric (yes, the spice)
Gold Rub
Lock
Twigs
Stamp
The start was this simple paper maché heart from a craft store.
I
covered it with Creative Paperclay® and embossed it with some vintage
wallpaper. Then I painted it burnt umber and sprinkled Tumeric on it
while it was still wet for a faux rust look. I then added a little gold rub, a keyhole and some twigs from my yard.
What would your heart look like?
