| Step 1 of 10 Cut out three frames from thick paper and stick them together. This gives the required thickness and strength. | |||
| TOP TIP 1 Wait for the glue to dry before moving on! | ||||
|
| Step 2 of 10 After covering the frame with Perfect Medium using the supplied ink pad, dab on the gold effect Perfect Pearls powder. Leave a couple of small gaps. | |||
| TOP TIP 2 Use the small tipped brush for putting on the powder - it picks up less each time avoiding wastage. | ||||
|
| Step 3 of 10 For a weathered look, add small amounts of green verdigris Perfect Pearl powder in the gaps left above, again using the small tipped brush. | |||
| TOP TIP 3 Other colour combinations are explained on the Perfect Pearls instruction card contained in the pack. | ||||
|
| Step 4 of 10 Using the dusting brush, work the powders into the medium, brushing away the excess. | |||
|
| Step 5 of 10 Using a spray bottle, mist the completed frame with water. This fixes the Perfect Pearls. | |||
| TOP TIP 5 For a hammered effect, beat the frame all over with the brush handle whilst still damp. | ||||
|
| Step 6 of 10 To age the labels, dab the antique linen Distress Ink onto a non-stick craft sheet and mist with water. | |||
|
| Step 7 of 10 Place the white tag face down onto the distress ink and lift up. A random stain pattern should develop. | |||
|
| Step 8 of 10 Don't forget to wipe down your craft sheet with a dampened cloth. | |||
|
| Step 9 of 10 Leave paper tags to dry. | |||
|
| Step 10 of 10 All that remains is to cut out some inserts from acetate to form the glass cover, and assemble - either use mini brads or small eyelets to fix everything together. | |||
