Gingersnaps Creations Frosting Challenge



Here is the challenge:

We challenge you to frost your creations with anything that takes your fancy. It could be glitter, flower soft or flocking; beads, pearls or rhinestones; Stickles, crackle paint or Diamond Glaze. We have such incredibly talented readers that I know you'll come up with some fabulous projects!(quoted from Gingersnaps blog)

I stamped onto a piece of Carson Canva-Paper with this wonderful stamp by Lost Coast Designs. I lightly painted the paper with gesso to give it more texture. After the ink dried from the stamping, I colored in the dress forms with pastel pencils, metallic markers and pearlescent watercolors. When those had dried, I added more 'frosting' with tiny pearls, self adhesive bling and painted on Stickles.

I'll put some detail pictures up tomorrow.

The challenge is up at http://gingersnapcreations.blogspot.com/ so head on over and give it a shot! Thank you for looking.
