Love this


Hi everyone.
Today I am sharing a canvas which I created using inspiration from the 13 Arts mood board challenge for March, being inspired by the colour palette or the individual elements.



I loved the colours of this palette, including the old stone look so wanted to create a project with the look of an old stone wall.

To prepare the canvas, I stenciled onto the background, and then painted it with an olive green paint and then with dark brown chalk mist, spraying with water to allow the colour to run down the stenciling and drying between each colour.


Once everything was dry, I lightly painted some white gesso across the stenciling.


I made some of my own rust paint by mixing Cinnamon Latte and Matte Mahogany paint 
together and then adding craft sand to it to give it texture.
The chipboard clock was first painted with this rust paint and then some of 
the brown chalk mist.


When the paint was still a little wet, I added some puffy white embossing powder 
to the clock and heated it until the powder had melted.


I applied a layer of gel medium to the bottom of the pebbles and then 
coated it with grey grit.




The chipboard swirl was also heat embossed with a white puff embossing powder.


The chipboard title and the resin wings were coated with Mineral Pearl alcohol ink and then 
lightly brushed with a silver wax.



I hope that you like this canvas.
Why not take up the challenge and participate as well.
Until next time!
💛
