Mixed Media Layout

"Shine"

Hello there..

I am here today with my second inspiration for September.

Autumn is here and the climate is full of yellows and browns.. so is my layout for today.

I have used some lovely chippies from 2Crafty and incorporated them with my layers. I love the script words chippies, they are my favourite. Here I picked "Shine" to suit the theme of my layout.

This time I chose to keep my chippies in their original colour and I loved the outcome.

Check out detailed pictures and a video tutorial too.

Mixed Media Canvas
"Once Upon a Dream"

Hello there..

I am on 2Crafty Chipboard blog today with my first project for September. I created a Mixed Media Canvas
using some gorgeous chipboard pieces from 2Crafty Chipboard and various mediums, paints and embellishments from Finnabair.

I started by spreading a generous amount of crackle paste on the base as I love to create textures on my canvas. Then I added some more texture with modelling paste and a stencil.

For my first layer, I used some wooden circles that I had grabbed from some stationary shop long time back. Next I stuck a couple of brushes for creating dimension. I then covered it all with heavy white gesso. Then I added some color with finnabair's rust paste and metallique acrylic paint in "golden moss", which is one of my most favourite colors in this range. I used a water spray to spread the color.

Creating a textured background and having a focal element is my favourite in mixed media and here

my focal point is Dreamcatchers and the title.. I layered all the three pieces

of the Dream catchers chippies on top of each other for more depth and dimension.

I prepared my chippies with Finnabair's Metallique sparks in "unicorn's hair".
I used an ordinary kitchen foam to apply the color over the chippies and loved the shine. They coordinated well with my background.

I layered various metal embellishments and some flowers that I coloured the same as my background shades.

Next I gave a touch Finnabair's waxes on all the metal elements to pop them up.

Finally added art stones and some background stamp to finish off.
