Beautiful moments

Hello

What a wonderful day it is here in SA.

I'd like to share my Penelope Dee mixed media layout, with you!

Beautiful moments!

Captured of My brother and his daughter in Virginia on a snowy day. 

Apply Ranger Archival Inks with a wet wipe to the background. 

Stamp and add dimension with the Diamond Azure stencil. 

Trace the outline of the stencil with a foil art pen and covered with gold foil.

Hey, Hey, Hey,

I'm back :P

So this is my last impression of this months mood board,

not intricate but simple and effective.

My Kids when they were young!!

Using Penelope Dee papers from the Paradise Collection.

I started with spaying Nuvo-Nebula blue onto a wet wipe and wiping 

over areas on my back ground page.

I added white netting, tore my blue page and added the cut off strip.

Attached to the back ground raising it!

I cut my photos into different size circles and sanded the edges.

For the sand dollar and bubble chippies, 

once again I painted white first, then dusty-Capri green, adding Prima blue and touching up with white paint.

For the Title, I cut it in half and painting Prima-deep waters-blue 

and then spraying Nuvo-Nebula Blue. 

I included drops of Nuvo-Turkish Rose.

Attaching and layering 

then adding Prima- medium and small art stones.

as well as metal starfish charms.

Completing the layout with Flowers.

Summer Fun

Good morning fellow scrappers!

Hope those of you who are attending Creativation are having a blast!

Today I'm here with the first of my inspirational mixed media canvases!

This is my brothers niece, Gabi, 

doing her impression of surf boarding antics!

I used Prima -Deep waters paint, watered down 

and poured onto the canvas. To create the darker areas I re-did it.

I then mixed sand into heavy gesso to create my white sand.

Adding small art stones and netting.

I coloured my gauze with Nuvo-Turkish Rose 

and spraying water to get it lighter in areas.

I also added a few drips onto the canvas, with the blue and pink.

For the drift wood chippie I painted brown. 

For the shell chippies, I first painted white then 

added a bit of brown and gold embossing paste. 

The title I mixed the blue with some green 

until I got my desired colour.

Then layered and assembled, adding glass stones 

and a real Starfish to complete the canvas!

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.

Wishing all happy Scrapers a wonderful Festive Season and 

Prosperous New Year!
