Encaustic Wax Mixed Media Board

Time for another Anything Goes challenge at Altered Eclectics.  This month I decided to get out my Encaustic waxed and create a mixed media board with them.  The background of the board was done with several colours of wax which the blue and silver sections were mixed with small glass beads.  I used masking tape to divide the layers. 

Once I had my basic design I added a few findings.  The star fish were from a dollar store and I coloured them with alcohol inks.  The small beads were from my stash and the shell was made using a shell mold and thick embossing powder. I coloured the shell also with alcohol ink and then added a little glitter. All the findings were glued down with wax. Once the wax was total set I buffed the piece with an old nylon to bring out the shine. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.  Remember to stop by the Altered Eclectics challenge board to see the beautiful creations of all the design team members.
