First I painted my tin with white gesso.

 Then I printed my Vintage Pictures Inverted

so when I Mod Podge my picture face down it would be a mirror image.

 

 

Next I Took a foam applicator and applied them to my milk tin

 

Then I placed my image face down onto my tin.

I did not mod podge after application as I did not

want a resist from the mod podge when I colored the tin.

 

When completely dry I soaked down the paper

with water and rubbed off the paper, creating a

transferred image with only ink remaining on my tin.

 

 

And as you can see my inverted picture is now facing the right way.

As I keep rubbing off the wet paper my image becomes clear.

 

 



I did the same method to my second image.

 

I mixed up some shimmer mixers from

Terri Sproul with water and binder powder.

Then I painted and drizzled down my tin and added some

gold paint rubbed in with my fingers until I was happy.

Then I took a rag and cleaned off my image

and cleaned the can a bit by rubbing it with a cloth.

 

 

Next I started to place my lace and embellishments.

 I used 3D Crystal Lacquer as well as hot glue. 

 

 

 

Here I made a flower embellishment with a piece of

 lace gathered and I used 3D Crystal Lacquer to adhere it with a pearl center.

 

 

 And the final photo..
