For the love of glossy accents

 
Hi everyone. Can I just say, once again, thank you for your support of late. Some of you will know I lost my Mum and life has been a little difficult. I am also playing catch up with lots of things and haven't been able to visit your wonderful blogs recently. I really hope I will get a bit more time soon; in the meantime I am very grateful that you still pop to see me here.

Today I am sharing this project over on the Country View Crafts project blog, so do pop over for the 'what I did' bit! I also created a version 2:
The main difference here is before adding the glossy accents I added Deco Art crackle glaze - the poor butterfly was a little overloaded with this and it started to fall off so the layer of glossy accents held it all in place.

    I love your marvellous glossy butterfly with all those cracks - he looks just fantastic - and the blue green one is beautiful.
