chunk book house swap, Bee's Wax


My next page for the chunky book artists house swap was themed House of Ill repute. I love using Bees Wax for collage. One problem I have had is that a dark bckground like this one would tend to show through the lighter image making it a murky mess. This time I sprayed the back of the image and the music with Matt fixative before adding it to the collage. The beeswax still incorporated all the layers but the image did not become quite so translucent. I stamped the chandelier behind the napkin so it would be a ghostly impression. The lace was a find in a reverse garbage store and I think it is a nice alternative to German Scrap. The back shows one of my favourite quotes from Mae West. The background is just credit card technique
