My April version of the 12 Tags of 2016 includes a dinner plate setting on the wood grain background. I didn't have the wood grain paper so I embossed a piece of cardstock. I painted the little Idealogy forks and knives to look like silver. You know I wrote one blogpost about my Tim tag failure at some of the monthly techniques that were demonstrated. Well, I think this one mainly worked. I don't think I did the resist part exactly right, but it looks the way I wanted it to look - as an old tabletop. That counts as success, right?
I ordered the mosaic kit because I wanted to see how that worked. It's pretty cool. And the mosaic glaze works exactly as advertised. It does not drip past the margins of the paper. It is amazing how it outlines each paper tile. It does take some time to dry, however. The grout looks nice as well.
I was thinking a teapot and/or teacup would look nice with this technique as well. Have fun if you make an April Tim Tag.

This is awesome! I love the plate. Rich would say because it's blue. I really got a kick out of the saying. I love when food is involved!

Wow! when I first glanced at this I thought it was a real dinner plate on a table--no kidding! then I saw the bits of Ideaology and your title and I gasped! Amazing! SUCCESS? Heck yeah!
Thank you for your kind comment on my blog! :):) and I love your little bunny houses, too!
