I can still hear Topal singing “Tradition” in “Fiddler on the Roof” …one of my all time favorite movies…I was really lucky that I got to see him preform that iconic role at Lincoln Center many many moons ago. There’s something magical about that song and it’s meaning.We all hope to pass down old and new traditions, and in doing so,keeping the flame alive from generation to generation.
This piece was inspired by that idea.
After gluing the bottom of the Curious Cabinet together I added Christmas themed paper to the inside of the box…
I then added the image from Collage Sheet #300 and bulky glitter to the background…
I glued on the top of the house and then covered the sides and back in coordinating paper…
I painted the top in a lovely vibrant red…
and when it dried,I distressed it…
and to give it that extra pow,I added a thin layer of Amazing Clear cast…you can see the difference in the photo where I started adding the resin…it helps to bring out the color and detail…
I then added some yummy scraps to finish it off …
