Caromal Colours April's Frames & Mag Holders

Isn't that the cutest birdie?  This cutie adorns the Magazine holder box that April painted in the evenings, while we were on vacation at the beach last week! Read on to see what all she did with Caromal Colours Texture Base Coat and Stencil Cremes. (Remember to use my coupon code "DGS" when ordering online or by phone with Caromal Colours, or just contact me to order)
April started with simple inexpensive wooden frames and wooden magazine holders from Ikea.  No prep work needed when using the texture base coat. April painted one frame with Bayberry, one frame and one magazine holder with Mustard and one frame and magazine holder with Pumpkin.
 April took her own advise and designed and cut stencils out of watercolor paper.
April stenciled her designs on the three frames and the magazine holders using Caromal Stencil Cremes, Rosy Red for the birds on the frame, Lilac for the flowers on the frame, Sunflower for the pears on the frame and Mossy Green for the bird on the magazine box.  For the letter A, April based the letter with Snowberry White and once dried went over it with the Lilac.  When all was dry she sanded them lightly, stencil and all!

Still using the Stencil Cremes, April took a paintbrush and added details to her stenciled designs, beaks, feet, stems and centers using Blackberry Stencil Creme.





Aren't they great!  I love them all!  Great job April! Caromal Colours , Check it out!  (Remember to use my coupon code "DGS" when ordering online or by phone with Caromal Colours, or just contact me to order)
