Chocolate box roses

Hello again and welcome, today I have for you another mixed media  tag using the wonderful Tim Holtz products. As I have decided to enter another tag into the Simon says stamp  Monday challenge.

I set out to create an opulent chocolate box style rose tag. there are lots of layers going on here including the different products that I used to colour the roses as I just couldn't quite get the colour I wanted. I got there in the end!

I think that the close up captures some of the layers added.

A little bit of collage.

Some lovely texture and a hint of foundry wax Statue and gilded.

Mushroom alcohol ink and gilded foundry wax for the hole re-enforcer.

Layers of stamping, oxides and paint for the background layers.

That concludes this chocolate box roses tag, I really do hope you have enjoyed these close ups.

As ever I am hugely grateful that you have joined me here, I hope you have found some inspiration, if you have I really would love for you to tag me in your photos as I am always interested and honoured to be part of your creative journey.
