Good Times Mixed Media Panel for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

 Hi lovely Friends, 
On this grizzled day in my part of the world I bring you some summer vibes,
 because I for sure need it. For today's post I made a mixed media panel with three pictures of our Abbey on the beach in Greece last summer. I was planning on posting this panel for a challenge but then I thought I have used a bunch of beautiful 2Crafty Chippies that I could better post it as one of DT projects here. Enjoy my post....

Good Times:

As you probably know by now I always gesso my chippies first most of the time I do two layers. I treated my two text chipboard pieces & the seahorses with two colors of embossing powder I jus really love that effect.

This wooden panel is 4 by 12 inch I just love to work with that size, a while back I saw a wonderful piece of art on pinterest with a whole bunch of frames {sadly I don't know the maker} After I saw that gorgeous piece I really wanted to make something like that myself. 

The rest of the chipboard pieces are decorated with embossing powders. I only left the beautiful seashells raw I only added some shimmer spray and a touch of white wax 

 Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a blessed & sunny week!  

Forever Treasure this Day heart canvas for ***2Crafty Chipboard***

 Hello fellow creative souls, 

I am so excited that you are here with me today as I bring you some new inspiration. For this occasion I created a heart canvas for my co-worker. Her daughter went to Curaçao with her aunt & grandmother last August and her dream came true which was swimming with the dolphins. She & I just really love the pictures they took so she asked me if I could make something for her so I did.

The background that I created here took a couple of days since I love it when it dries & crackles naturally. I also used a couple of stencils on my background and some sprays and waxes.

All the chipoard pieces are treated with either acrylic paint, spray paint, rust paste and waxes. I really love the effect that paste makes on the chippies in the end I added some wishing bubbles & art stones. 

Sure hope you like my canvasses as much as I love making them. 

Stay happy & creative much

Sweet Love Thank you for being Mine canvas for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

 Goodmorning sweet creative friends, 

Happy 2023 to you all, I hope you had a lovely New Years eve here it was rainy with lots of pretty fire works but I was in bed by 12:15 lol since my husband & kids all have the flue they were not in a festive mood. Since we now have Valentines day approaching I created a canvas with my husband as the center pieces well him kissing me that is. This year in April we will be celebrating our being together for 25 years. So you will see some more works of me in honour of that. 

Sweet Love Thank you for being Mine: 

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Berry Branch 

Festive Vine

Frame Handrawn Hearts 

All the pretty 2Crafty chipboard pieces are firstly treated with a layer white gesso. After that I added two layers of aqua embossing powders and one layer of pure white embossing powder on the berry branch & festive vine. BTW don't you just love the new collection by Prima Marketing called  "Aquarelle Dreams" you will see lot's more of that frome me for sure. 

On the berry branch I added less white embossing powder then I did on the festive vine since I wanted them to look slightly diffenrent from each other. In the end I added some crystal drops on the circles to give them more demension en also some white matte wax. The heart frame was painted with two different types of acrylic paint the first with a shiny finish and the second one with a matte finish. 

Sure hope you like my canvasses as much as I love making them. 

Stay happy & creative much
