Blog Hop - Club Scrap's Crewel & Unusual kit

Crewel & Unusual Blog Hop!!

Today I am working with Club Scrap's Crewel & Unusual kit.  I decided to make some fridge magnets out of dominos.  I found a ginormous bag of dominoes at the 2nd hand store.  These could be a great item to leave around when I travel as "Abandoned Art".  I love to leave Art goodies when I travel to different towns, I include my email and occasionally get a response which is always fun to find out who found my goodies!!

Supplies:
Dominoes
Sharpies (in lots of colors)
Stazon Ink (black)
Rubberstamps
White paint pen (optional)
Clear protective spray or Glossy accents (optional)
 1.  Get some dominoes.  These ones are white with a flat perfect artist surface on the back of them.
 2.  Use various shades of sharpies and color the domino.  I started by doing each end and then the center color, then I would overlap the colors and blend them together:
 Here is the assortment of different color patterns I did:
 3.  I then used a 'script' image (ClubScrap Homestead kit) and stamped onto the colored backgrounds:
 4.  Rubberstamp main images (ClubScrap Crewel & Unusual kit) as shown:

 5.  Optional step: Add highlights using white paint pen:
 6. If you want, you can protect your art by spraying with clear acrylic protective overcoat or use glossy accents, let dry.

7.  Adhere magnets to back of domino art:
