Glittered Bauble ATC's by Teresa Morgan




Good evening crafters

You made have noticed there was no blog Tuesday, however Katie shared a little art doll she made with our stamps on her blog and you can view the post here

How's your Christmas crafting coming along? Do you need a quick but very effective and beautiful project??
Look no further as Teresa brings us three colourful ATC's, and I am thinking these would also made fabulous card toppers to send to your family and friends. 
We have the baubles in stock and you can view them here

This is Teresa's last blog post for the year, and I am sure you will agree that she has made so many beautiful projects over the year. 

Big thanks to Teresa :) 








Apply the modelling paste through the number stencil and allow to dry.

















Apply several coats of glitter paint to the bauble bases, building up the colour. (Top tip, if you don't have glitter paint, you could paint and then sprinkle glitter whilst the paint is still wet)

Paint the filigree fronts with a couple of coats of pearl paint.










Once the modelling paste is dry, paint the ATCs with white gesso and let this dry. 

Use your finger to apply metallic lustre waxes to each, highlighting the texture from the stencil.











Glue the filigree layer onto the bauble base, then glue this onto the ATC. 

Finish with a ribbon bow and metallic sentiment sticker.













Thanks Teresa
