Spread Your Wings and Fly Canvas

Hello friends, today I am sharing something a little different for me - but something I have loved creating.  Mixed Media - it has taken me by surprise but in another sense seems totally natural as well - I am loving it and have quite a few things being worked on.  

This canvas was inspired by a set of card I had was commissioned to create for the Australian Simply Cards Magazine - they were published in ASC #97 in August 2017 - I was thrilled to have a 6 page article and a card on the cover

One card in particular was a favourite and it the basis for the canvas using Seth Apters Spellbinders Dies. It is an 8x8 canvas and the tittle is 'Spread Your Wings and Fly' something I am endeavouring to to artistically.  I have used the following products:

• Shapeabilities Seth Apter Ring Around Etched Dies
• Shapeabilities Seth Apter Take Flight Etched Dies
• Deco Art Gesso; Imagine Crafts Radiant Neon Inks, Creative Medium and Pico Embellishers.
• Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: 3D Foam Squares
• Want2Scrap: Turquoise Rhinestones
• Authentique Paper
• Chipboard Letters
• Paper Napkins

You can see some of the details in the Collage below.

Textured Birthday Wishes

There is no doubt about it - weekends are the quickest part of the week - they no sooner seem to arrive and then - just like that they are over - hopefully something exciting happened in the process.

I am usually busy in the Studio every day - some days I just play with product to take me out of my comfort zone - this card is the result of one of those sessions...

I have played around with  Imagine Crafts Featuring Tsukineko StazOn Inks on glossy paper.  Once this has dried I have used a Prima Stencil and Texture paste - I love the instant results.  The sentiment is stamped using Memento Dye Ink in Tuxedo Black.  The textured layer has been cut and mounted on a precut card base, measuring 10cm x 15cm.  I have used  Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares for dimension ,and E-Z Runner on this card.
