Helen Chilton #4 Fantastic Plastic

"A fun little project to finish using up one of the credit cards you've been painting with.

The cards I'm using are blank ones - I've long since used up my supply of old cards - but if you are using an old printed card, just layer on the paint more thickly".

I'm using Vintage Collection ID03 and Hot Pick 1214.

HP1214

Paint the card with a basecoat of Snowflake.

Stamp the "thread card" from HP1214 in StazOn Ink black.

Stamp some little buttons in the middle from the button corner stamp and cut out.

Paint with the translucent Fresco colours Limelight and Beach Hut.

Turn over and stamp and paint the back (this is an asymmetrical image so it fits perfectly)

Stand your heat gun on the table, switch it on and then heat up the corner of the image. As it heats the plastic softens and you can curl and bend it to add a bit of dimension. Repeat on the lower corner.

Cover with a thick layer of Gloss Glaze and add buttons.

Finish with last embellishments and a brooch back.
