Altered Game Pieces


Here is the altered game piece that I did for our 200 Member Contest on Altered Designs. It is two Rimmi-O tiles glued together and then background colours applied using Sharpie markers and spritzing with rubbing alcohol until I was happy with the colour. I used a combination of Memories ink by Stewart Superior and Brilliance ink by Tsukineko. All stamps are from http://www.quietfiredesign.ca/ I then used a really sticky double sided tape (also available from Quietfire Designs) to edge the game piece, then dipped it into gold and green micro beads to cover the glued edges. A wood bead was glued to the top to put the cord through. Each side was then given a coat of JudiKins Diamond Glaze to protect it and give it a shine. On the front while the Diamond Glaze was still wet I attached a small blue flower gem from Heidi Swapp.
