Love for Scrap FX

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you a tag with lots of Scrap FX goodies.
I have just purchased some pots of coloured wax and not knowing how to use them, I took to YouTube and was inspired by a Prima Marketing video by Keren Tamir.

I have used a large tag for my base which I added some gloss gel to with the Botanical Stencil.  Once dry I have coated this in Colour Blast Black Gesso.
I have then assembled a few pieces with a thick matte medium and left to dry overnight.  I think I have stuck the wings the wrong way round but am really happy with them like this.  The body piece of my insect has been made by building up a few chipboard pieces.  A piece from the Chess Set, a key from Bund of Keys and lastly a Crown.
These have all been adhered to my tag with a few miscellanious bits from my stash.  I used all the colours of things that were my least fave because they are all going to end up coated in black gesso.
I've added a couple of Triangle Tags and a Duo Hearts chipboard piece to the top on my tags.  These were all painted in black gesso.  The Heart piece has had a small piece of paper coloured  and attached to the back to colour the cut out piece.
The next day I have painted the whole piece with black gesso and attacked it with my new addiction, wax.  They go on amazingly simply and so soft and lush on the chipboard pieces.  It's delicious.
I used a few different colours and the Patina Blue to highlight parts of the focal point.
The title is a Bracket Word Mini, this has been painted and a metal frame with a layer of charcoal wax added over top.
Hope you've been inspired ♥
