I've altered a box that used to once house nail varnishes. I have used Gesso to prime the box, Maimeri modelling pastewith my newest favourite mask from PAB, A4 flower (to create the raised pattern) and finally sealed everything with Glassy Gel. Everything has been coloured with pan pastels and metallic pan pastels. I have ecen coloured the metal letters with metallic pan pastels! Full details are on my blog.

I've used lots of metallic PanPastels on this altered frame and little picture. I used gesso to prime the frame and gave it a coat of Bronze Maimeri Acrylic pant. I and then coloured the crackle medium with Rich Gold PanPasel. I stamped the image with versamark and applied Copper and Bronze PanPastel over the top, adding some glitter for a frosty sparkle. The little bird was also coloured with Maimeri Acrylic in Bronze, love love love this colour!!

Altered wooden Doorstop

I had so much fun altering this little wooden doorstop with a mixture of Pan Pastels, Metallic Pan Pastels, Maimeri Gels and Mediums, scraps of paper and words from book pages. You can see more over on my blog here.

Terry I had a blast with the fabulous Metallic PanPastels, love the colours and the shine they give. I altered a photoframe and used the Wendy Vecchi technique of stamping onto Modelling Paste and I can tell ya that works just wonderfulll. The borders of the frame are worked on with Gesso, Modelling Paste and the Roses/Butterfly stencil and a honeycomb stencil. The butterflies are covered with Iridescent Paste and on top Metallic PanPastels. To cover it all I painted with the Metallic Acrylic Paints.


Suzi I had lots of fun transforming an old ribbon reel into a pretty pin pot, using White Gesso, Glassy Gel Medium and Light Modelling Paste to create my embellishments.
