Do I like getting messy... you betcha... the messier the better... it's the cleaning up I don't like. I haven't taken part in Margarets Dress it up challenge for ages... despite the best laid plans... I get sooooo sidetracked :D There are just sooooo many things I want to do and try that there just aren't enough hours in the day!!
I love sloshing paint around and made a background using acrylic paint... pva glue... watercolour paint and inks. Placing the colour randomly on the sheet along with the glue. Then I bubbled it with a heat gun... it's really cool doing that... magic before your eyes... just love the texture it creates. I then just cut out the dress shape from the piece I painted and shaped it a little so it didn't look flat.
I just adore Autumn colours so I think this is gonna be one of my most favourite of the dresses I've done :D
To see the other dresses for October go here.
Hope you are having a good weekend.
