Welcome - Altered Tile

Welcome back! Today I have another wonderful project using Unique Laser Designs wood embellishments. Lots of color and texture come together to create a unique home decor project. For this project, I used a 6x6 stone tile as my based.


To start, I painted the entire surface of the stone with a tinted glaze. Once the glaze was dry, I added different colors of ink to give a marbled effect.


Next, I used a stencil and modeling paste to add a layer of texture to the tile.  While the paste was still wet, I sprinkled it with glitter.  Every project must have a bit of sparkle.


Once the modeling paste is dry, I added some ink to give the tile more color.


Now on to the embellishments.  I used a mixture of alcohol inks, Stickles, and dimensional paint to add color to my ULD embellishments.


Now it's just a matter of pulling everything together.  I added a couple strips of washi tape to the bottom, adhered all of the wood embellishments, then layered on the flowers.


A wonderfully simply project with striking effect. Now I have something to display in my home to welcome guests.

MR & MRS

...hey there!!....Debbie with StudioBeeCreations...
here I have my latest canvas using several
pieces.....I am soooooo in love with this awesome product!
GREAT for cardmaking...scrapbooking and MIXED MEDIA canvases!
I took a 12x12 primed canvas...and layered it with wallpaper samples, and stitched on vintage BARKCLOTH couple...along with a vellum bible verse from my stash...some vintage lace and applique' cut from an antique wedding dress...along with antique mother-of-pearl buttons.
I started with the ULD MR&MRS and then went back with the  ULD curley corners and frames.



I painted and embossed the MR &MRS and decided to leave the swirly-o's "naked"....because this product stands beautifully on its's own!!
As a DT member, I receive product...however...I have to say...I am soooooooooooooo in LOVEEEEEE with Unique Laser Designs..that I have just placed an order ( and received lickety-split!) to use in many of my up-coming ART canvases and blocks for my shows!
The "cabinet card" is from the Tim Holtz line(uber fun!)...and works well with this vintage theme!
StudioBeeCreations is always available to do special works of art and one-of-a-kind gifties!
