Hope...a step by step tutorial by Mona Pendleton

Hi there, it's Mona here with my first 13 arts DT project to share using a variety of fabulous 13 arts products! I had this wooden star stashed away in my garage that was just waiting to be altered!

I combined a piece of pretty 13 arts patterned paper from the Faces of Spring collection with a variety of 13 arts Ayeeda mediums including: Gesso Acrylic Primer, Medium Acrylic Modeling Paste, 3D Glass Filler and Medium Acrylic Gel Medium:

For color, I used the following 13 arts Ayeeda Mists: Mist Chalk Blue Light, Mist Pearl Green and Pearl Turquoise Light:

Once the background was created, I embellished with a variety of 13 arts flowers: Fabric Flowers, White Twigs and 13 arts Twigs ornamental fruits decor:
