Altered Frame - Mirror

The beginning of my project... remove mirror and commence covering with tissue paste of which I'm adhering to the frame with modelling paste to give the crinkles a bit more depth...

Then seal the layer of paper before commencing paint...

Hand made sponge for sponging frame with white paint 

Now for the fun...stamps and stencils, ink and paint ...again used the sponge tool here...

Modelling paste with Stencils ...more drying...

Added metallic paint to the dried paste and resealed entire frame before beginning with embellishments...
