I took an 8 x 10 canvas board and glued various items to it, ie chipboard letters and numbers, spellbinder dies and some stencilling with grunge paste. Then painted over everything with gesso.
And coloured it with sprays, inks, primary elements and treasure gold. I added some DecoArt media texture sand paste too. I basically just kept going until I was happy with the colour.

Over at Pan PastelUK they have a theme of add some bling, well I used so much treasure gold that I think this will count!!!
Lovely canvas! :-) xxx

ReplyDeleteFab effects........ and I also like the gesso'd look before you added any colour !
ReplyDeleteHaving seen the "plain" picture you tweeted, I just love how this turned out - I bet the shimmer IRL is just gorgeous.
