Family ~Stuck on U Sketches!

Yay! Its reveal Friday at Stuck on U Sketches! This weeks sketch was supposed to be done only using scraps, but I didn't accomplish that part of the sketch.  I've been sick this week so I was just glad I actually got the sketch done!  I had a back flash to the 1980's with this photo my dad found hidden away. This is a photo of my older brother, Brent, me, and my little sister Cheryl [who is all grown up now!]  I love this photo cause it is physical proof that I was once thin and hot! lol

I used the Prima Romance Novel collection that I got from Swirlydoo's awhile back. I just love the colors in this collection!
Here is the cute sketch we got to use created by our own Nanne!

I used all kinds of flowers I had kicking around in my stash.

More flowers, and I used gesso on them as well, and I also used some cheese cloth.

I've had this resin bench from Prima in my stash for quite a while and was glad to finally use it!

I did some masking with a Prima mask and molding paste. I used a piece of a ornate fence from Dusty Attic. I painted it with a heavy layer of gesso and then used my heat gun to quickly dry it, and built up a few more layers like this. Then I sprayed it with Glimmer Mist. Love the effect it gave!

just a bunch more close ups!
