Believe

Last one for the year....

I love to work on canvas!
I adore this photo that I found on Pinterest.

For this layout I used two photos.

Once again, 
for the back ground I mixed the nuvo shimmer powder - Atlantis Burst 
and applied to the canvas. 
Re-applying several times to get the desired effect. 
Also splatting, including Prima sparks - Unicorn hair.


I stencilled using a music note, 
and stamped with Christmas stamps.


The painting all chippies with dusty Capri paint, 
let dry and touching up with Prima sparks.


I included white netting to the back ground and layered from there.
I also used gold netting as well as flowers.
I attached 2 little glitter birds.

Looking forward to seeing you all in the New Year.

Wishing all happy Scrapers a wonderful Festive Season and 
Prosperous New Year!
With all my Love

Sweethearts!

Me again...

So here is my final mixed media layout for this month!!!

This is my Daughter and her boyfriend at her Matric dance!


Using colour stock card, I tore a piece off and placed at the top of the page.
I stencilled with the Dusty - Demask, using heavy Gesso and 
then the Clockwork using Prima Graphite paste. 



Then added Ranger-Seedless Preserve ink, plus water {to help spread the paint} Pouring on to the page and guided the spill the way I wanted, then a touch of Prima colour bloom – Precious stone, to create the back ground. 


For the Dusty Lace chippie I painted with Prima colour bloom–Precious stone and touched up the dry brushing white gesso on top. I then, touched up with Nuvo-Glimmer Paste- Amethyst purple. 
I also sprayed the words with Ranger-Seedless Preserve ink and boarded with gold paint.


I also included a page from an old book, Lace, Metal bits and Dusty in bloom flowers plus handmade ones. 
I splattered with gold paint to finish off the layout.
