"Bee Wired"

Materials List
Directions
  1. Stamp the bee image on a piece of linen card stock.
  2. In separate Studio Cups mix Jewelz Powdered Pigments - Brilliant Gold and Macropearl with PPA - gloss to create acrylic paints. Paint the body of the stamped image with Brilliant Gold and the wings with Macropearl.
  3. Apply Duo Adhesive to selected areas of the image and let dry. Apply Gildenglitz to the adhesive areas and remove the excess with a Texture Sponge. Save all the remains for future use.
  4. Attach WireWorks to the wings by poking small holes in the paper. Use a dab of PPA on the back side of the paper to hold the wires in place. Create a pair of antenna and attach in the same way.
  5. Collage assorted papers and Sanwa Tissue onto a piece of black card stock with PPA - gloss. Lightly coat the entire piece with PPA-gloss and sprinkle on Mica Flakes - Sparkling Champagne. Let dry.
  6. Tear the edges of the yellow paper and Holographic Paper and layer onto the card stock piece using Great Tape.
  7. Attach WireWorks as embellishments to a piece of Holographic Paper with PPA - gloss.
  8. Stamp the bee image in black several times onto a larger piece of yellow paper and let dry.
  9. Press a clear stamp pad around the edges of the stamped paper and sprinkle on Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel - Clear. Heat emboss.
  10. Layer all the pieces using Great Tape.
