New Orleans, LA…NOLA
New Orleans is color, food, music, people, heart, & soul.
Hello Blogosphere! Welcome to the Ice Resin Faber-Castell Week! I am so excited to share details about my NOLA Pendant. NOLA stands for New Orleans, LA which is where I call home! It was my first time using Ice Resin & Iced Enamels…totally fell in love.
Instructions:
1. Trace the heart-shaped bezel on a book page, cut it out, and save the negative (top portion) to color.
2.Draw a New Orleans Skyline with a black PITT Pen (S) on a book page. Color the sky with Art Grip Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils (107, 136, 166) and blend it with a wet brush. Heat Set. These watercolors are permanent once they’re dry
3. Adhere Skyline to Bezel with Gel Medium.
4. Apply Iced Enamels Medium to the bottom portion of the Heart-shaped Bezel using a paintbrush, making sure to avoid adding the Medium to the Skyline. Pour Iced Enamels Relique. Shake excess. Heat Set.
5. Add more Iced Enamels Medium on top using a paint brush, pour Iced Enamels Relique (German Silver), shake excess, and heat set. Repeat until you achieve desired results! I layered mine 4 times.
6. Add charms, embellishments, and letters to create a scene in your Heart-shaped Bezel.
7. Mix the Iced Enamels Resin Syringe per the instructions (I used half of the amount in the syringe & mixed it for a minute). Pour into Bezel. The air bubbles will release with time & warmth.
8. Allow project to dry for 6 hours. Allow to cure for 3 days.
I hope you enjoyed my project! Sorry for the lengthy instructions, but this stuff is SOOO cool! There are a TON of videos and tutorials out there (thank you web)!
