6x6 Dreams Canvas

Helloooo Everyone...
Today I have a Project where I have done a bit of experimenting
with some of the new & old LB products...:)

Using a 6x6 deep side canvas
do some stencilling with the embossing paste (charcoal)..
Then heated it with a heat gun to get those yummy raised bits....

I also stencilled on 2 sides

When dry give the whole canvas a couple of coats of LB black gesso...

Paint some LB flowers with black gesso and glue them to your canvas..

I made some shimmer spray by mixing some LB Mica Powder into some 
Colour Splash Spray..
It works fabulous on black ... 
I painted the chipboard with the Metallic Paint..

I have used some gold waxes to give definition to the paste and flowers..
 Here are some closeups...
 

I hope you have enjoyed this project..
Happy Crafting

November Moodboard Challenge 

by Amanda

Helloooooo Everyone....Here is my project for this months challenge.
I dont usually use alot of red, but really enjoyed doing this creation.
 

 Sorry I got so in the zone I forgot to take some pics....
First off I applied some White Crackle Paste a bit unevenly
for better effect. Then I used some black and red sprays,
and used a brighter red to add splatters.
I also did some stencilling with Graphite Paste.

Using Alcohol Inks and AI Foil Tape sheets I mixed some colours.

Then I used a Strip die to Diecut the butterflies.

I coloured a chipboard tree with black gesso and Color Bloom spray,

and fussycut a pic I found online, then coloured her a bit 

and added some glossy accents and words...

Then I arranged everything and glued them on..

Here are some Close-Ups...

I have used lots of fun products.

First off I put out the  products I want to use...

I have built up the layers with watercolours and magic wands.

 

Then I fussy cut the girls.

 

I stamped heaps of flowers onto watercolour paper

and colour them with Lindy's and color Bloom sprays,

then fussy cut them and added a sequin for the centers..

For the background I used white crackle paste, then

used some color bloom and Lindy's sprays.

Then I have stamped some small flowers to fill 

some of the background.

Then I arranged all my pieces on the page, 

I used a gold stamp pad to colour the chipboard,

and the chandalier is a sticker.

Helloooooo Everyone....Today I have a project
using homemade resin pieces and a 
cool background technique I have been 
experimenting with.

1st off I taped some squares with washi tape. 
Then I did some stencilling with Modelling Paste. 

When it is totally dry remove the tape to reveal 
the tile like pattern... 

Sorry I missed getting a pic for the next step.
Glue the Resin Pieces and when dry paint with a 
coat or 2 of Black Gesso.

Waxes so bring out the details.
