Mixed media frame tutorial

Hello Crafty friends,

I am here today to share a photo tutorial on mixed media altered frame for Expressions craft blog.

Last three days left to participate in  current month challenge and our challenge theme is to "Add Glitters"

Today I would like to show you on how I altered a plastic frame with black gesso.

Here is the step by step tutorial of making it

Step one: I have taken a plastic board and coated it with a layer of black Gesso.

Step two: added textures our it with our mini deco stones

Step three: I have added our oval chipboard frame and then coated it black Gesso.

Step four: added colours to the chipboard branches with sprinkle mist sprays

Step five: Add the coloured chipboard embellishments and flowers to the frame

Step six: Add metallic colours, I have added golden metallic paint and sprinkled titanium white sprinkle mists 

Now add layers with photo and flowers
