Hi dear peeps! Today, I am happy to share my altered liquor bottle project, as DT for Conie Fong, which I made for Conie's monthly Facebook challenge. This month's theme is "Anything But a Card".

I love altering liquor bottles and this was so much fun to make. This is a long post, so here goes:
This is the bottle before I altered it:
After removing the labels and cleaning it with rubbing alcohol, I applied a coat of gesso. Then, I painted the entire bottle with orange acrylic paint. I lightly sponged red acrylic paint over the orange areas. Next, I sponged on some purple acrylic paint around the perimeters of each side. Once they were dry, I applied a coat of matte Mod Podge over the entire bottle to seal it.
Then, I added the image and the other die cuts around the bottle. The image is coloured with Copics and Polychromos pencils. I drew the background fence. Finally, I applied Mod Podge to the image and the die cuts. Here are more views:

The spider is raised with 3-D foam dots and I added Swarovski crystals for its eyes.

OK, now I'm done - LOL! Until next time. Hugs, Lori xx
