Boozybear Special - Part VII

Hi, servus and welcome to part VII of our boozybear sponsor special feature!

We thought it was about time to give Glenda - the designer and owner of the boozybear etsy shop  - and her fab steampunk chipboard pieces the attention they deserve and we will be doing so by showing steampunk/industrial style projects done by my wonderful DT - each using the same boozybear parts but in totally different projects and ways of using them so you can see how versatile these are and maybe also grab a little inspiration here and there for your own projects.

So throughout the next months you will find extra project posts over here - each done by one of my talented DT ladies and I am so happy to have the opportunity to not only show Glenda's amazing chipboard designs but also let my DT each have the stage to herself. (to make it easier for you to compare the projects I will add links to the previously posted boozybear projects to every new project post.) I find the idea thrilling to see how differently the same chipboard pieces can be approached. I hope you do too. ;)

*Here's the link list to previous boozybear projects done by the DT:

Boozybear Special I
Boozybear Special II
Boozybear Special III
Boozybear Special IV
Boozybear Special V
Boozybear Special VI

Today it's time for Dee to share her final make as a member on our design team.  And once again she has outdone herself! We will miss her and her amazing art and we wish her all the best for her future creative endeavours!

Hi everyone I hope you are well I have my piece using the lovely shapes that we 

were given from Boozy Bear I hope you enjoy reading how I did it as much 

as I did making the tags.

This is a photo of the shapes that were sent to me and the other members of the DT 

we were all asked to make a piece and look at all the different results.

I also used a couple of other Boozy bear pieces that I had in my stash,

they were the picture frame and i cut up a couple of the pieces 

to fit in with what i was trying to achieve.

 So above I cut the hands off with the flourishes as you will see further on.

I started with the wings i put black modelling paste through a stencil 

then used a texture comb and ran it up and down the

 wings so it gave them ridges.

I triple embossed the piece that I had cut the hands off with chunky embossing powders from Stampendous.

While still hot I pushed a cog stamp from stampendous

into the hot powder. Once cool I used Deco Art patina 

antiquing cream and left to dry. 

I prepared all three tags by using the following process.

Deco Arts Media black modelling paste was put through 

a verity of stencils. Different stencils were used on

each tag.

Once the modelling paste was dry I used black gesso followed by black 

media fluid Acrylic as it gives a different surface to the gesso.

This was followed by white then patina antiquing cream.

I embossed the clock and sprinkled some teal over to give it a patina effect. 

 Below you can see I cut the small clock off a bigger piece and 

gold embossed it.

Tag 1 was collated together and finished off with building wax

and coloured gauze.

Same for tag 2 I added a glass embellishment to the base of the tag.

Also the same for tag 3 I used the embossed clock and the photo frame

from Boozy bear the frame was painted with Deco art crackle paint and 

coloured with washes of fluid acrylic.

I hope you have all enjoyed my post and will be desperate to try these 

amazing chipboard shapes as they are so versatile and you can

 customise them if you so wish.

Cheers Dee x
