Remain Creative & Curious - Mixed Media Canvas

Good morning! Popping in quickly with a little canvas I made recently. I started it at the Create with Kate craft event last weekend and have been playing around with it since. 

On the background I used a mix of Dylusions & Glimmer Mist sprays, drywall tape, stencils and stamps. Then I layered on some buttons, flowers, chipboard lattice, washi tape, chipboard butterfly/bird cage and chipboard letters. I Gesso'd them all and then sprayed them with more Dylusions.

 Taking a flat brush I added 2-3 layers of Silks 'Emperor Gold' acrylic glaze to the raised areas (buttons, butterfly, cage, letters, etc) and to the edges of the large flower. 

I added some Chit Chat stickers, sealing them with matt medium. 

And finally I added some crackling paint to the butterfly. Seriously cannot get enough of this stuff - LOVE IT!! 

 I am entering this into the Mixed Media Place Emotional Challenge which is Curiosity 

Have a creative day!

Altered Canvas Swap

Good morning! Popping in very quickly to share a canvas I made recently for a friend as part of a swap. 

I had such a blast creating this and was quite pleased with the result. 

Supplies: 

5x7" Canvas 

*Grid & Sentiment stamps

*Papers, flowers and the clock stencil from Prima Marketing

*Manila tag

*Gesso

 *Mod podge

*Modelling paste

*Gelatos & Creall Silkies

*Glimmer mist (Bubblegum, Patina & Apple)

*Dylusions Spray (white)

*Washi tape

*Journalling pen

*Glossy accents. 

*Button

*Dry wall tape

*Pearl Pen

The hearts have been covered in gesso, coloured with Creall Silkies and sealed with glossy accents. Sadly, I can't clearly pick the glossy accents up, as I broke the bulb from my light tent and the daylight is awful lately. 

I am entering into the Mixed Media Place challenge, which was to use Glossy Accents. 

Have a great day! I am off to finish my Christmas shopping and hopefully fit in a little crafty time in the afternoon.

Quixotic Paperie - "I am Perfect" Altered Canvas

Good afternoon!! I'm back again with a little project I made at my little one's request. - An Altered Canvas for her wall. 

I gesso'd the canvas and then spritzed the background a mix of Glimmer mists and Dylusions sprays. As long as they were pink, purple or red, she was happy. I also added some Lemon Zest with a stencil handmade by a great blogging buddy - Nicole Mullen. 

The papers are Delight from Pima Marketing Inc.

The stamps is from called Leap of Faith and it's by SCACD. It's been stamped out with Dusty Concorde distress ink. The seniment is from Dyan Reaveley's Dylusions Stamps - The Right Words. 

Have a great day!!
