Steampunk Heart by Katie Lamb


 Evening Crafty People 

Katie has been making a steampunk heart using lots of treasure from the Treasure Trove.
You may also recognise the some MDF pieces from Samantha K.







Start by arranging all the wooden cogs and resin wings on top of the MDF heart. 

Paint Everything with black gesso.

Take the heart and paint over with dark brown rust paint and then the rust colour, dry brush the yellow rust paint on to finish.






Repeat this process on all the layers.

Next paint the whole piece with blue metallic lustre, once dry add the smaller cogs and metal cog charms.

Add another layer of metallic paint and a bit of rust paint to the charms.

















Add flowers and the Scrapiniec sentiment to finish
















What a fab rusty heart, love the composition of this piece, and the flowers soften the industrial look.
