Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! Today I have a couple of holiday projects to share
that were inspired by December's Prima Product Picks inspiration board:
First up, is an altered paper mache deer head:
While Angie and I were out shopping for a masquerade mask that I needed for an upcoming holiday party this weekend, Angie spotted this beautiful ornament:
I began this project by applying Prima Gesso to the entire piece. Once dry, I applied Prima Gel Medium to the antlers then sprinkled with snowflake like glitter flakes. For the head, I randomly applied the following Prima Color Shine sprays: Gold Foil, Storm Cloud and Tea Stain:
Once the color shine sprays were dry, I adhere Prima Gold Rush Glass Glitter followed with a light application of Prima Gesso. For a more feminine touch, I embellished with a layered Prima metal flower which was covered with Gesso, Gold Foil Color Shine and Gold Rush Glitter:
I also made a holiday greeting card featuring pretty papers from Prima's Ephiphany collection:
I embellished with a Prima flower and a snowflake shaker full of various shimmery products including Prima Gold Rush Glass Glitter.
For card sketch inspiration, I joined along with the retrosketches sketch challenge:
here are several of the Prima products used:



















Many thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you are enjoying the holiday season!
Be Sweet ;)
