'The Charm and Destiny of Rusted Enamel'.......yep am talking about two challenges in one this time.
The CofC Challenge is Rusted Enamel (page 41) hosted by the lovely Linda of Studio L3. Never tried this technique before and can honestly say I love the effect it gives, so much so I have made a large piece of it (in a different colour) for future use. Hope you will be able to see the pitting in the photograph.
Also am entering this into the Gingersnaps Charms Challenge. The charms are made from molds and hopefully they look a bit like wood and bronze which is the effect I was trying to achieve. Hmmm maybe a bit too ambitious of me.........lol
There are loads of wonderful entries for both these challenges, plus great examples from the Design Team; well worth having a look at if you get the time and hope you will join in and have some fun.
Will catch up with you all later as I love seeing your wonderful creations. Take care and have a lovely evening. Annette x

Great colours for your rusted enamel. And your charms are wonderful.
Hi Annette. Your rusted tag turned out super! I think I added too much powder to mine because it really was smooth.
Your recent Gingerstamp pieces turned our equally well. Great job.
Nettie your tag is gorgeous hun, really striking.
Fancy telling me to be sensible, that would be as daft as telling you to my mad friend lol. I will try though just for you, after I've done the housework of course ha ha ha
hugs Mandy xx
Why did I not think to add a charm?? Love this Netty! The background color really sets off that charm!

Wow, your piece is striking!! The background pitting is coming through very well on my monitor. The charm looks like it is ages old. Love that little bit of aging you have done to it.
Sweet Netty, this is fabulous! I love the multicultural pieces you've been doing-- India last week, Africa now-- FABULOUS always! Your rusted grunge looks awesome, and that mask is so, SO gorgeous.
Oh! I get to say "awesome job" wearing my Gingersnaps hat, too! Beautiful way to incorporate the charm challenge, my dear.
You're wonderful.
How cool is this? Totally fantastic. Love the way you used the charm. And that Rusted Enamel is one of my ultimate favorites - so fun and a really great effect.
