Inka Gold and Fabric Experiment


For an upcoming tag swap with the theme of fabric on a tag I decided to play with my Inka Gold and some upholstery fabric. I painted my fabric with gold, green and purple Inka Gold. After the first layer of  Inka Gold had dried I used a stencil and added a few small circles of Inka Gold.
 

Once everything was dried I stamped the fabric with a rubber stamp called Flying Stars by Penny Black using Black Stazon Ink, then I added a sentiment and a die cut gold butterfly. To finish the tag I added gold fibers and some small pieces of bling.

I liked the effect of the Inka Gold on the fabric but it does not shine the way it does on some surfaces.  You can get a little shine by buffing it with a soft cloth carefully in the direction of the fibers.  I like the way bits of the texture of the upholstery fabric come through the paint. 

Thanks for stopping by to take a look.  Now back to my craft room to clean up the mess.

  1. That's fabric? Wow, that is stunning and so different! Going to have to look at these products as I have some plain silk that would be beautiful if I could stamp and colour it, thank you for sharing with us and for inspiring me!
