Here I stamped the giraffe on acetate, then painted with acrylic, then I did the wheel in white and chalk-coloured it. the background is glossy white, sponged with orange, then wax-paper resisted, then the wheel went on top of that. I wiped off the ink where the wax was to give it an even more distressed look, but it's hard to see that.

Wow - this is so out of Africa! Great pattern and color combinations. Sounds like a lot of work! The three eyelets are a nice finishing touch. You really did a nice job. TSF

Stunning! The multiple layers really give it wonderful eye appeal. Love all the different techniques that went into this gem. Definitely going into my favorites!
