Making an altered art tin

Hi Diana here, to show you how to make this cute altered tin!

You'll need: 

G&P Pure Sparkle Gold Glitter

G&P Glastique Gloss finishing Glaze 

Washi Tape

Gesso 

Blank Ink pad

Typewriter font background stamp

Paint Spray (you can make your own)

Doll face (draw your own, or buy one)

Cover your tin with washi tape. I do this to prep the tin for gesso. You can't apply gesso directly to the tin, as it will peel (if it even stays on; usually for me it doesn't even dry). 

After that, apply some gesso, and let it dry.

Then, add color by using some paint spray. I do this because it's a fast and fun way to add color to a surface or background:

Once that is done, you can stamp the front cover with a stamp, and apply your doll face.

After that, add a bit of glitter and seal with Glastique. Normally, beeswax is used, but beeswax requires heating, and can be a bit messy, while Glastique is fast and easy and requires no heating.
