Altered Heart with Tyvek Flowers by Katie Lamb

Hi all

I am on the blog today with a Winter themed wall hanging. I used Tyvek paper to create embellishments.




 Take a mdf heart and paint with gesso before painting it with Copper Aztec Metallics Lustre paint and leave to dry.



Paint over the heart with crackle medium and leave it to set before painting over the top with white acrylic paint.






Cover surface with Aztec Metallic Lustre White Pearl  paint to add a icy shimmer.


To create the flowers i.used a die cut to cut out circles from the Tyvek paper. I tried it with cog dies and achieved a more textured look.




Paint the circles with Aztec Metallic Luster or fabric paints.




Punch a hole through the centers and use a  heat gun to crinkle up the Tyvek to create the flowers.




Finish of by adding flowers and foilage around the Tyvek flowers and add lace to the top of the heart so it can be hung up.

Thank you for visiting
