TwiddlyBitz


After being inspired by the very talented Nathalie Kalbach recently I got creative with a 12x12 piece of cork, some impasto and misting sprays. The impasto is not as porous as gesso so it took longer for the colours to permiate. I used tattered Angels screens on the background with the impasto over the top. I have imbedded some metal charms and some medical gauze. You then let it dry or very carefully help it along with a heat gun. I found after it was dry it was very soft and flexible like a piece of fabric which was cool.

This is the finished layout. I have added my favourite chipboard of cause "TwiddlyBitz"
