“Look at how cute and regal this rabbit is. He comes from a small portion of the new Redesign with Prima® Decoupage Fiber Paper in Fancy Friends. I also used the new Redesign with Prima® Decor Mould in Lucian. I flipped the frame upside down so the decorative element from the top would act as a handle for the lid of this box. I was able to create this copper penny texture with a bunch of Finnabair’s items like her amazing wax!! See below for list!”

“Who doesn’t like to have everything in order, from their work materials to the smallest things on their bureau. As soon as I saw the Magnolia rouge collection, I had in mind to upcycle a drawer to put my wax crayons for the wax seals.

Finn monthly product are the metallique wax, these are great to enhance any project, they come in a wide range of colors, you can give shine, light, paint with them, or just give a different touch to the reliefs made by the pastes with stencils, to the ceramic and/or resin pieces, to the papers to give some kind of effect… leather, bronze, copper, etc, etc. I encourage you to try them in different ways and give free rein to your creativity.”

“I love working with finnabair moulds and waxes, with the “pieces of underworld” mold you can get a result in the purest steampunk style. I felt the metallic copper flakes really stand out against the base of metallic wax brushed iron and old silver. As a suggestion, heavy black cast is absolutely essential. My undying love for molds, they never cease to amaze me!!

Have you had the chance to experience the brilliance of Finnabair waxes? These cute little tubes are packed with gorgeous metallic shine that effortlessly add elegance into any project! I made this mixed media canvas using Finn’s metallique waxes Peacock and Vintage Gold along with Clockwork Sparrow and Mirror Frames moulds. The backdrop is a generous layer of White Crackle Paste which dries to form these stunning crackles. I highlighted the composition with Finn’s waxes, to give it this breathtaking finish. Finally, some touches of white paint or gesso to highlight some areas and the result is this beautifully detailed,textured mixed media piece.
