Happy Haunting Mixed Media Frame

 Hi Everyone

I was so excited when Snip Art released their new designs and there was chipboard for Halloween!! Here in Australia it's not celebrated like other countries but I love doing Halloween type projects so I decided to alter a frame using the new designs. 

The frame I used is by Ikea, I used texture paste and black gesso on frame and then highlighted using Art Alchemy Waxes.

I stenciled onto my snip art MDF tag using their mask - wood and texture paste. I painted the tag, 3D Skull, Open Roses and Halloween Set chipboard with black gesso and used the same waxes as the frame to add colour and highlights.

I sprayed the flowers with a black spray and highlighted with a wax and then adhered the tag to the clear board in the frame.

Duch lasu / Forest unicorn

Witajcie kochani!
Dziś zapraszam na typowo mixed mediowy projekt. Jest to zalterowana zabawka mojej córci, która odmówiła współpracy (przestała działać, za to mamie działała mocno na nerwy :) ). Dostała nowe życie. Zrobiłam z niej Ducha Lasu. Jednorożca opiekującego się fauną i florą. Dumnie stoi w środku lasu i obserwuje. Na jego nogach zadomowiły się pobliskie skrzaty i ptaszki, a na grzbiecie wyrosły magiczne grzybki. Ten niezwykły koń jest dla mnie symbolem jedności natury. Jego nogi mocno zakorzenione są na ziemi, natomiast głową sięga gwiazd stąd tli się w nim nieziemska moc, która zostanie zbudzona w potrzebie!

A tak wyglądała alterowana zabawka. Odniosłam sukces!
Córcia nie zorientowała się, że to był jej konik!
And this is how the altered toy looked like. My daughter didn' notice that it is her toy! 
I am proud of myself ;)

Miłego dnia / Have a nice day!

CHAINED TORSO

Hello, today I bring to you my Chained Torso.

This month has been difficult for me,

then I looked at my chipboards and saw the chains and cogs and thought of my heavy wooden Torso

that I have had for a few years and suddenly knew what to make!

It has just been waiting for a project like this!

It stands about 48cm tall and made from wood.

I started by preparing with a Base coat of blackgesso .

After selecting my chipboard pieces from the Industrial Factory range.

And the Jolly Roger chains

I made them a bit wet so I could bend them. 

I then stuck them in place with gel medium and dried it all. 

When it was fully dry I painted it with black paint and added some more cogs to make the layers 3D

then adding some texture paste all over using cadence texture paste to give it more depth and shading. 

The products I used after are Lindy's silver spray and Finnabair White golden wax

It could represent the inner clockwork that keeps us ticking or the way we feel at the moment trapped in chains, with our inner cogs getting rusty from not being able to live freely? Or just a really nice Steampunk style piece of art with no hidden meaning!

I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed creating it

Round shaped MDF by Phoebe Tonosaki

hello friends,

I have a MDF project to show you today.
I did a mixed media layout on it 

with some photos of myself

visiting the place where my father in law was born 

and grown up.

I wanted to record that beautiful scene

I used some paper elements

to add some details about the trip

I also emphasized the textured with 
Lindy's gang Glitz spitz spray and some glitters.
I really love the texture here :D

here is the products I have used :
