Itty Bitty Things

I'm on a Retro Cafe Art high! I love using these products and I always always find myself inspired!! 

Here's one of my new pieces...I think I used at least 10 RCA items. Things like two different shadowboxes,gears,candle sticks,butterfly,egg,Sandra Everton's resin pieces,key and much more! A girl can get lost with so many yummy things to work with! ( :

Today,I have a new tutorial for you using what else...RCA Designs!

They're itty bitty assemblages and I think their super sweet and fun to make!

First I glued and assembled the Mini-Ornate-Framed-Shrine,then covered them in delicious UmWowStudio cardstock.I also inked the edges.

I painted a spool black,added some metallic luster and wrapped a cord around it.

I then added some Iced Enamel embossing powder on the frames and then covered them in Amazing Clear Cast

Next I took some more itty bittyies and covered them in paper.Here I used houses and angels.

and instead of using these as the wings,I turned them into clouds.

 

then I added some words ,added a tiny number and all I had left to do was assemble.

Before I go...

I'm thrilled to share that my Retro Cafe piece called "In my Heart I know the Way" is on the cover of the new issue of Somerset Studio. I think you would have had a nice chuckle if you saw me when I found out...just about fell off my chair! Pretty darn exciting.Pretty darn thankful.
