Part One: Paper Flowers, Silk Flowers, Mixed Media Jewelry and Grungeboard Necklace Bases

Join B'sue in the Messy Workshop as she explores preparing silk and paper flowers so that they can be made into jewelry projects. With the assistance of Connie Rios-Relyea's apt tutorial (found under PROJECT IDEAS section at B'sue Boutiques) we discover the importance of prepping the materials with a decoupage medium (B'sue likes Collage Pauge by Traci Bautista for Aleene's) before topping with sealant. Connie's sealant of choice is ICE RESIN, and she has become an expert in using it over silk flowers, ribbon and paper flowers as well. Find her Ice de Cristal components at www.JewelsDesigns.org You can also print her tutorial out from our website,complete with photos! You can purchase finished resined flowers from Connie at her site; we carry paper flowers (Prima, and Anna Fearer's handmade flowers) as well as pretty papers, Graphic 45 ribbon and paper, Grungeboard by Tim Holtz and ICE RESIN....as well as Collage Pauge in matte and glossy, Aleene's Paper Glaze, Diamond Glaze, Gel du Soleil and many more! Be sure you check out Part Two in this series as well for the comparison of the products. As always, we so much appreciate your patronage at http://www.bsueboutiques.com It keeps us going so we can make more and more videos for you!
