piece by piece

Hello mixed media friends!

Today I'm hosting the Mixed Media Place. I created a small 12x17cm canvas I made for my art wall. It's already hanging there in a frame :)

To create this project I started making a collage with tiny pieces of paper and chipboard pattern. I applied clear gesso all over the surface and started playing with stencils and stamps.

I used the 'Weaving' Prima Elementals stencil with the light paste to give some dimension to the background. I also aded Lindys Stamp Gang embossing powders for more texture.

Then I had some fun with the colors: I made some splashes with the Lindy's Stamp Gang Opal Sea Oats and Dark Chocolate Truffle sprays and spread some Blue Grass Primary Elements on several spots.

I also used my permanent pen to draw some details like the fish at the photo below...

Finally I stamped with a few stamps here and there, spread some Copper Glass Glitter and wrote my tittle with alpha stickers from 7 Dots Studio Domestic Goddess collection and an alpha stamp.

Brave the storm

Hello!

Today I'm sharing a canvas I created with the June 2015 Limited Edition Spray Set for Lindy's Stamp Gang.

To create this mixed media background first I made a collage with papers, next I applied some light paste with a stencil and then I glued everything down. After that, I used the sprays with a paint brush and spread the colors here and there... I also used the sprays to paint the flowers.

I altered the chipboard pieces with the Shabby Turbine Teal spray and the Obviously Black and Midnight Bronze embossing powders and some bronze mica flakes.

I also used the embossing powders on the background with a stamp to create more texture and give more interest. I really love the result.

One more thing I did with the embossing powders was to create this beautiful butterfly. I stamped twice the butterfly on rice paper, spread the embossing powder and heat it. Then I cut it around with a scissors and painted it with the Shabby Turbine Teal spray.
