Today I have a really fun bit of art to share with you. Sometime this past summer I bought an old pair of vintage ice skates at a garage sale. I knew they had potential and for $2.00 I couldn't pass them up! Yes, they started out a bit grungy... but hey, it's nothin' a little paint, ink and embellishments won't fix!
I used a combination of Craft Attitude Printable Film, Altered Pages Collage Images, IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko Creative Medium, Luxe & Brilliance Inks and Deco Art Americana Acrylic Paint, Deco Art Media Crackle Paste & Antiquing Cream. Throw in a feather boa and some holiday floral pieces and you get this.....
and here is a handy dandy little SnapGuide tutorial on how it was done...
these are so pretty! I would love to make something like this for Christmas, but I live in Florida and ice skates are scarce here. thanks for sharing your project.
