Welcome!
It is week 2 at Art With No Boundaries and the Theme is still Anything Goes / Heavy Metal!
The design team was again asked to use metal and I decided to go with silver. Ok, I know, this is not a heavy metal, but because we are doing something for the men in our lives, I decided to go feminine with my metal. And all the metal is in any case out of my own toolbox.
I used the fabulous Metal & Screws for my pink & silver tag. The image was coloured with my pencils and blended. The flowers & scrolls were made with the foil lid of a coffee tin. The edges of the mats were very lightly distressed.
Well, here is my frilly metal tag:
Here she is a bit closer:
And here you can see the flowers:
I hope this has inspired you to also make something using a bit of metal, a washer or a piece of foil, and then joining the challenge.

Beautiful tag, Rene. Your colouring and palette choice are really lovely. I think those foil flowers are so clever...great idea.
ReplyDeleteRene, This is a beautiful piece of Steampunk. Who knew that Steampumk could be so very pretty and oh so soft and feminine. I love the colors you have chosen and also love the silver via the coiled flowers. I have been saving the foil lids as well but really didn't know what I was going to do with them, so want to thank you for the great idea.
