Altered Embroidery Hoop

Hello dear friends,

Today I want to share with you this mixed media altered embroidery hoop. This is my first attempt for an altered art and I am rrally satisfied how it turned out.

Again I have used all the supplies from Itsy Bitsy Crafters Store in India. This time I have used their newly launched paper pack "Aqua Medley" under the brand name "Little Birdie". These papers are really beautiful and you must try them. All the floral elements are from the same collection.

This post is picture heavy. Please sit back and relax and enjoy the pictures. After the pictures there is supply list and step by step tutorial of how I made this.







I hope you liked the pictures. So lets get started with the process.

  1. I took a 7 inch embroidery hoop and covered it with texture paste and applied some spray mists in blue and green color so that my whole project looks blended.
  2. Then I took 2 sheets from the aqua medley collection and cut two circles, one of the hoop size and other an inch smaller than that. I distressed their edges by sprinkiling a little water to add dimension.
  3. I applied clear gesso on the papers and then I did some stencilling and stamping with a roughly idea of where my arrangement is going to be. 
  4. I added art stones using gel medium and applied some more spray mists on the stencilled area till i got the desired look. 
  5. Then I started with my floral arrangement and added a chipboard sentiment by heat embossing it.
  6. Lastly I sprinkled some white gesso all over my project and added some gesso on the flowers as well so that they all look well blended.
