WOW! Embossing - Family Ties

Good morning!! Today I have another  mixed media canvas to share. I made this one for this month's challenge inspiration over on WOW! Embossing and the theme is Family


I created the background by layering on some Prima papers - Buff by Julie Nutting - and then covered it gesso. mixed with a little water for a more white wash look. Then I added some texture with dry wall tape, washi tape, stiff lace and modelling paste. I used a stencil for the modelling paste. I heat dry each layer with my WOW! heat tool to speed things up. 


Once the background had dried I used some bubble wrap with embossing ink and Copper Pearl embossing powder


Taking my Silicone Moulds I made some Roses and Daisies with Melt-It powder mixed with Copper, Gold, & Pearl powders. I arranged them around the Family Ties wheel adding a key tied with gold ribbon. To finish I added a fabric butterfly and some wooden hearts.
