"Twelve Days of Christmas with Reneabouquets" "Day 4" by Design Team Artist Diane McClosky


 TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS

Welcome to Day 4 of the Twelve Days of Christmas with Reneabouquets.  

This ornament was crafted using an IOD mould and a high-quality white resin.  After allowing the resin to cure, I applied a pearl metallic paint, which adds an elegant sheen to the piece.  To accentuate the intricate details of the mould, I brushed on an antique silver metallic wax along the edges, creating a stunning contrast that highlights every contour.

At the center of this piece, I decoupaged a design using Ice Jewels Rice Paper from Ciao Bella.

For the beautiful flower cluster that graces the top of the ornament, I cut pieces of evergreen from a pick I had in my crafting stash.  Nestled within the greenery are Reneabouquets mulberry paper roses, which were arranged to create a focal point.  To enhance the floral display, I added Midnight Magic Iridescent Pearls that complement the colors of the roses, alongside shimmering clear glass beads, and a sprinkle of pearl glass mircobeads.  To complete the ornament, I brushed on fine Diamond German Glitter Glass for added sparkle.
