Flowerpot Frame by Suzanne Franin

Hey Everyone Suzanne here

This project was lots of fun

A friend was getting rid of a few old craft bits she had and thought of me so I was the lucky recipient of some half terracotta pots, some straw and a few other things that will get used at some stage I'm sure

This project I used the Thistle Flowers and Flourish Corner Set from Memory Maze

Make sure you check out the Blog to see what great creations the Design Team create with the fantastic products Memory Maze make

I made a YouTube Video of the process so make sure you take a look and give me thumbs up and subscribe to my channel x

The back of the frame I covered with tissue paper using a couple of layers to give a bit of depth

I glued the pot to the frame with Helmar Super-Tac Glue as this glue hold just about anything  

I painted the frame and the pot with white gesso then made a mix of water and Colour Blast Colour Shimmer Dust Midnight 

After the Colour Shimmer Dust Midnight dried I used the Colour Blast Colour Clear Shimmer Brush Marker I dripped a couple of drops onto another brush so I didn't get any colour onto the Colour Clear Shimmer Brush Marker I love sparkle the more the better

I painted the medium flourish from the Memory Maze Flourish Corner Set with the Colour Blast Colour Mica Powder Watermelon and clear gesso

Then the Memory Maze Thistle Flowers I used Colour Mica Powders in Lemon Zing, Peach Nectar and Polar

I used some Helmar Scrap Dots glue to raise the Memory Maze Thistle Flowers off the back of the frame to add some dimension to the project I also used some Helmar Tacky Craft glue

I gave the whole project two coats of the Helmar Crystal Kote Gloss Varnish to give a nice shine to everything and a bit of protection from dust
