Doll Sculpture Ft. Sculptor Tex

Hola beautiful crafters,

Today i will be sharing my last DT project for expressions craft. I have created a doll sculpture using sculptor tex contour medium and cheese cloth available in the fabric pack. 

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the new sculptor tex medium from expressions craft. The end result is always breath taking with this medium. So without further a due, let's see how I made this sculpture. 

Step 1 -  I created the base of the doll and painted it with red cherrywood chalk paint to give the brown skin tone. 

Step 2 - I dipped my cheesecloth from the fabric pack in the sculptor tex medium and created a beautiful dress for the doll. I also made the bow on the dress with fabric dipped in sculptor tex. 

after i let it dry over night, I covered the dress and dolls hair in black gesso.

Step 3 - Lastly once the gesso dried completely, I add metallic colors on the doll's dress as well as her face and arms. I used dry brushing just to highlight the peaks on the dress. 

Here are some close-ups-

Hope you liked the project! Do tag us in your creations using sculptor tex medium.  

Until Next Time

Sorting Hat Sculptor

Hola crafty peeps,

I am back with a very exciting project for you all. I have created the sorting hat from the magical world of Harry Potter as an inspirational project for Expressions Craft Studio blog. Being a DT member it is always a personal challenge to create a project for fellow crafters which inspires them to use the new mediums and experiment with them. So, here I present to you the sorting hat made with the new IMMIX Sculptor Tex Medium. 

I have used the sculptor tex medium and gauge from the fabric pack to give the desired shape and wrinkly look of it. She has colored it using black gesso and metallic paints in the shades browny rust and tuscan red. This medium is absolutely amazing and easy to work with. Once the medium is dry it is rock solid and holds the shape you mold your fabric in. 

Here are some closer looks -

Hope you liked the project and are inspired to make one of yours as well. Do not forget to participate in the March monthly blog challenge 'Anything goes with Mediums' on Expressions' blog. 

Until Next Time

Starry Nights Mixed Media For Beginners

Hello beautiful crafters,

I have created a mixed media project from scratch for you to be able to understand the whole process. This project is best for beginners to understand how only a few products are needed to make a mixed media project and not a ton of colors to create something like this. 

Since it's Christmas time I have tried to give it a snowy effect as well. I used only two colors of chalk paint for coloring the whole project. So without further a due let's dig in! 

Hope you liked the video tutorial and are inspired to create a mixed media project of your own. Don't forget to tag me in your creations inspired by this one, I would love to see them. 

Until Next Time

Merry Everything Tags

Heya beautiful crafters,

With Christmas around the corner and all of us planning crafty gifts for our friends and family, I decided to do a couple of tags to go on my gifts. 

I used chipboard tags as my base from Expressions Craft Studio and covered it with white heavy gesso. Next using texture paste and stencil added some design in the background. Post that I adhered some clay molds and metal charms and covered everything with black gesso.

I used impasto paints in colors cobalt and poppy red. I highlighted the embellishments using IMMIX holiday gold metallic paint. Lastly, I added some handmade foamiran flowers, micro pearl beads for a snowy effect and a sentiment sticker which says 'Merry Everything'. I also dry brushed white gesso for a snowy effect. 

Here are some detailed pics!

Hope You liked this small little creation for the holiday season. If you create your own tags inspired by these don't forget to tag me in your posts, I would love to see them. 

Until next time

XOXO
