Tando Sponsor Spotlight No.2

Welcome to the second of our Sponsor Spotlight posts at OCC in April.

This month our Sponsor is....

 And we have our amazing Trish here today to share with you a brilliant creation using a Tando set - and her creation is as wonderful, bright and dazzling as always! You have in for a treat today!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Hello! I am thrilled to be sharing a project today, using an amazing kit from TANDO CREATIVE!

The kit I used is the MDF shelf kit, with a heart cut out. This one!

Once I'd finished with it, it looked like this:

These kits are made from sturdy 3mm MDF, so they will hold all sorts of stash! I glued it together first..

Then added a layer of old book pages...

Once this was dry, I gave the shelf the 'Trish' treatment... lots of smeary paint, with stencilling and stamping! This is the base layer...

Even though some detail won't be seen, it's good to get lots in at this point!

When you receive your kit, you'll find that the heart cut out in the shelf needs to be popped out. This means you have a heart shaped embellishment to use! I drew around this on a sheet of masking film...

I cut the hearts out and applied them to the shelf. Difficult to see because they're clear :)

Just about visible! I then added more layers of colour, stencilling and stamping...

The heart masks were covered with this layer....

Once removed, the masks reveal the design underneath...

I then doodled!

Lots of doodling!

The darker colours in the second layer contrast nicely with the first layer...

I even doodled around the cut out heart!

A coat of clear varnish and the design won't chip off or get discoloured when you start to use it as storage.

I hope you like it!  

Don't forget, our Gypsy Fayre challenge still has a few days left to run! You could be the randomly picked winner who receives a set of Tando goodies!

Have a fabulous day, Trish xx
