Mixed Media - Passion !



Hi All......

Good Morning.....and I'm back with yet another canvas ....totally adored the way this piece turned up.

I have used these products in the above project:

Prima White gesso, Prima 3d Heavy Gel, Wendy Vecchi's crackled Texture paste, Crafters Workshop Stencil - Rock TCW573S, Finnabiar Artstones, Dusty Attic Heart Attack Border, ColourArte - Silk Glaze acrylics - Turquoise/Blue, Handmade Foam Flowers, Resin frame, Mulberry flowers/leaves, DCWV Paper strip, Glitter Balls/Prills, Pearls, Border Chips, Metal embellishments, Fussy cut Butterflies.

I coated Prima White gesso  first and dry set the canvas, then used Crafters Workshop stencil and applied the Crackled Texture paste and allowed to dry. Later gave a nice wash of ColourArte Silk Glaze acrylics and started arranging my centre pic adhered it to a strip of  DCWV card stock and played around arranging my layout with handmade foam flowers, metal embellis, prills, chippies.  I used Dusty Attic heart attack border strip, I cut the hearts individually and heat embossed it with Zing Silver embossing powder and randomly adhered it on to the layout.  I also used pearls to enhance it a bit more and used  gel white pen for highlights around the pearl. Lastly stuck micro glitter prills with 3D heavy gel and randomly placed the fussy cut butterflies around the layout......

I'm quite happy....that I have been experimenting a lot off late....being a beginner and without a tutor just by following few really cool and nice artists around the globe.

I'm enclosing few close up's here....





Hope you all enjoyed this little effort of mine.

Mixed Media - Celebrate



Hi Friends!!


Today I'm here to share a beautiful canvas.  I enjoyed working on this project. I have used Papericious Wedding collection paper pack for the scrap layout. The paper was very much coordinating with the theme challenge of this month ...hence I choose it.

I used Prima white heavy gesso along with Diecuts and more Raindrop Stencil. I used ColourArte Twinkling H2O's Yellow Rose and gave a neat coat for shimmery yellow randomly around the layout. Then stacked my centre pic with doily cut in half and adhered it... next used coordinating DCWV strips of cardstok and tag behind the centre pic.  Later used splashes of black heavy gesso,Lindy's starburst Red Rudolph's Nose Red and Poker orange and Brown splashes. Later embellished with Tiara along with pollens and small gardenia flowers.  Then used Cherry Lynn's Gardenia flower strip and made roses and highlighted with Diamond Dust for sparkle and also used Spellbinders Dies for Small Daisies in grey and white and used glitter micro beads,fussy cut coordinating butterflies and adhered them along the layout and applied InkaGold  randomly on the edges of the layout for a shimmery effect.

The word Celebrate itself fascinated me to create this little piece ....and I loved the way the whole layout turned up.

Hope you all enjoyed what  I shared here.  More close up pics ....

Mixed Media - LAVENDER LOVE




Hi All...........

I'm here to share a new mixed media canvas.  I fell in love with the picture I choose for this particular layout.  It was quite romantic about the scenery. I went wild and vibrant with the textures, colours and experimented with the whole project.

I used cheese cloth,tissue paper, Prima texture paste, Prima white heavy gesso, Finnabir art stones, Artanthology stone texture paste, micro beads, rhinestones, handmade flowers, spellbinders die cuts, Dustyattic jewel chippies (The original jewel chippies were used for a different project) and the negatives, which I felt were quite useful here, I had these chippies used with some embossing powders and stuck it along with the flowers and added micro glitter here and there. The main picture I stuck it in three layers to give a 3D look which has the river flowing, so that it looks as the stream is flowing down towards and stuck coordinating dragonflies and butterflies flying along with the whole layout.  This gave me an imaginary presence on the whole. It was quite romantic. Romance is not all about a male nd female holding each other.....but I felt this was quite a lovely scenetic appeal for LOVE/ROMANCE ...... its all about celebrating a feeling. What say? (LOL)!

I spread the whole layout in a manner that it looks quite natural with the centre picture coordinating with all the elements used in the project.

Enclosing more closeup shots.....





I used the cheesecloth, tissue paper, art stones, stone texture paste and colourarte's twinkling H2o's  on the canvas.











Now after I gave a neat wash of colours and started sticking my centre picture with all the required embellies.






This is Dustyattic chippy.....I used the jewel part chippy to another project and use the corner negatives here .....the S shaped curvy  joint....which I placed in the centre was cut and embossed with lavender embossing powder and stuck along with other embellishment.
                               

Below are some closeup shots....for you all to see the textures....


                   






Hope you all enjoyed this as much as I loved working on it.

Mixed Media - In Blue





Hi All.....

Today I share with you all a canvas of mixed media which I loved playing with. 

I first applied clear jesso (Prima) and brushed the whole canvas and heat set it.  Now, used the white jesso and just brushed randomly at few places and heat set it. Next I applied Distress Clear Crackle on the white jesso and let it dry.  After the crackle paste left the cracks on the jesso, I used Lindy's Bachelor Button Blue starbust spary and Carribean Flat Fbio spray for textures and blended it. Now stamped a compass clock with archival black ink and also used my script stamp and randomly stamped the canvas.  Next, I had my image ready.....gave a back support with a corrugated paper and stuck the centre image. Now I took few beads, shells, chippies all glued with 3d matt gel (Prima).  I used Spanish Moss for the natural effect and splashed few drops of the blue sprays of Lindy's on to the shells. Next I took few micro beads, glass beads and pearls mixed it with clear gel and applied it randomly on to the canvas for a deep sea look......thaaadaaaaa...I was quite happy with the whole outcome of the canvas......to finish with the final take....I applied Prima Blacck jesso with dry brush and covered the outer edges of my board.  Now finally to give a word ....I took BEAUTY as my pick and I hand wrote it with my brushpen, fussy cut and adhered it on to my canvas.  So this was a little piece of work which inspired me and I'm sharing it over here.....

Sharing few more close up pics below:







Hope you all liked my work....

Merry and Bright- Christmas




Hi Dearies.....

Wishing you all a Happy Holidays......and a coming New Year!!

I have created this mixed media layout for this month's bright season .........and the lovely mood board challenge.

Created this mixed media mini canvas by using Prima clear gesso and stenciled with Prima Heavy white jesso using Rain drop Stencils by Diecuts and more. Now painted it with acrylic colours for texture colour.  Heat embossed the window with Wow embossing silver powder and adhered it on to the pic. Used the glittered snowflake and adhered it on to the board.  For snow used the cushion foam which was in my stash and glued the strayfoam balls with clear dry glue for snow effect.  Fussy cut the polar bear from DCWV the Arctic Wishes paper pack and also the sentiment from this paper pack.  To finish.....I adhered few flowers in my stash and also added few strayfoam balls for snowy effect........thaaadaaaa......my layout was bright and snowy.....with Christmas jingles.

I loved doing this and hope you guys liked it tooo...

I'm posting this project to all these  challenges below:

Mixed Media Wedding Layout



Hello friends......

This is Hema here and today I share a Mixed Media Layout with you all and I have used Papericious Wedding Paper pack to create this layout.

I used two 12"x 12" papers from the paperpack. Distressed the edges of the paper with Ranger distresser.  Then applied Prima white heavy jesso and heatset it.  Used Colourarte H2O's for the background where I had the focal image... ..Placed the photomatts adhered cheesecloth and placed the picture. By now I had dried the chippies with white jesso and colored them with Colourarte  H2Os and adhered it to the layout. Now gave a good spray with Lindy's Pink starbust spray's.  Now decorated the layout with flowers, embellis and some lace.  Fussy cut Heartfelt creations sentiment and some butterflies and adhered it to the layout......thadaaaa......this is it.....!! 

Sharing a few closeup shots of the same here............




This month's mood board colours were fab....I felt it was quite romantic with pinks, greys, purples....and I thought since its wedding season, wanted to make a wedding layout....so played with these romantic colours and made a colourful pretty layout!!!

I'm posting this layout for December month's challenge 2016. 









Hope you all like it and share your love !

Love to all

Mixed Media - Fall theme


This a mini canvas measuring 5x11".  I created this mini for this month's mood board challenge.  I used Fall as the centre Theme for my creation.  

I used Prima white jesso for texutre and have painted using brown and green acrylics. I used dry leaves, flowers, spanish moss dry grass, golden beads, micro beads and handcut blue roses for more glamour.  In the end I sprinkled white jesso splashes for the finishing touch.

Hope this little piece of art has brought some smile on your faces.
