Tando Creative DT - Wooden Heart

This weeks Tando DT theme is Pretty in Pink and I decorated a hanging wooden heart.

This home decor item started off as plain wooden hearts.  I painted each heart pink with Annie Sloan chalk paint, then painted over the pink with white chalk paint.  I then rubbed the hearts with sandpaper to take some of the white paint off so you can see some of the pink underneath.

I then used the Tando Creative Cogs Group mask on the hearts with Viva Decor Ferro Iron paste and left to dry for a while.  This created a nice raised effect as the application was quite thick. 

This is the Cogs Group mask I used and you can see I just used a small portion of the stencil.  I'm now thinking of  project where I can use the whole mask.  I just love how versatile stencils/masks are!
