How To Decorate An ATB With Romantic Summer Collection

Hi all

I have made up an ATB using the Romantic Summer Decoupage pad available at Cherish the Memory. An ATB is an Artist Trading block also known as a chunky. It is basically a block that can be decorated on all sides or with one side open like a shrine.

I painted each piece in gesso first so that the paint wouldn't soak into the mdf. Then i coated it with DecoArt Texture sand paste before painting over with acrylic paint.

I dyed some cheese cloth with Tattered Angels glimmer mist and adhered it to the ATB, I then popped out the pieces from the card kit and glued them into place. I added shells and flowers to create more dimension,

For the top of the block i used a stencil and painted over it with Metallic Lustre. Then i placed down the die-cuts and embellishments. I filled a small bottle with seed beads and mini shells before gluing it to the top.

I used one of the backgrounds from the card kit and added the die-cuts. I then decorated it with shells and flowers.
