Hello Roadies, it's Melody here on the blog today. I have an 8 x 10 canvas to share. I have been working on adding some mixed media pieces to my studio. This on has definitely found a home!
I pulled out some pretty doilies, flowers, wooden and metal pieces, chipboard, stick pins and leaves and played until I came up with a layout I liked.
I thought I would share how the canvas looked before I added the embellishments. I started with a blank canvas, added a coat of gesso and black paint around the edges. Next I covered the canvas with patterned paper and used a stencil and crackle embossing paste to add texture.
Once the paste was dry I sponged on distress inks. In the left corner I used a white Vintage Doily Transparency, an Ornate Round Filigree, a Milk White Felt Rose, and a sentiment from the Black Rubons Sentiments.
In the right corner I covered a Manila Shipping Tag with patterned paper. Then I embossing a sentiment from the Love Words Mini Chipboard Set with embossing powder. I added another felt flower and metal embellishment, a medium Paper Leave, two Leaf Trinket Pins, a Kraft Library Card, and a Feathered Friend Resin Embellishment.
Here's a look at the bottom part of the canvas with includes a Kraft Ticket, a house from the Welcome Home Chipboard Set that was embossed, a Mini Tree Charm, and a Wooden Ruler. So many pretty embellishments!!
Thanks for stopping by!
