"BEST FRIENDS 4 EVA"

 

 

 

 

 

Lots of Layers and some Mixed Media!!

 

Hi all and welcome to my blog!!

 

Well I have been busy and keeping my

promise to update regularly !!

 

Life throws us some doozies as we all know

and I guess we can get caught up with all

the negative stuff and forget

to "Stop And smell the roses"

 

So I have been trying to put my not so happy

thoughts into my art....as you do!!

 

Well it's what makes us happy, me happy :)!!

 

So I have been having a go at this yummy

"Mixed Media", it's funny

 

Been doing it for as long as I have been doing my art

I guess but it's something that we all incorporate

into our cards/ layouts without even realising!!

 

Stamping ,painting, sploshing, stencilling,

using fabrics, papers ect....

 

So anyways I thought I'd have some fun

with this and really make my page POP

 

so I doodled, painted, splotched (lol) even threw in some

sequins for good measure!!

 

Love these photos, took these of my son and his "BF",

down at our park, they're in a cardboard box !!

They had a free family day and there was a maze made out of

huge boxes ....how to entertain kids for ages...BOXES!!!

Great day and they loved this maze!!

 

So enough rambling, I came up with this LO and am entering

it into Prima's May Bap

The sketch called for some check patterns, so

of course used my 2nd fav stencil Fin's checks....

sploshed that around with some gesso, and covered that

with some glimmer mists and silks "Guatemalan Green", 

Dragonfly, trunk bay glimmers!!

Modelling paste with the new paint splots prima stencil

Cut out some hearts, butterflies and leaves with white glitter paper

resins and lushes flowers Prima, Prima Baby!!

I have a love for corrugated card too so threw some of that in for an extra layer

Or two!! Doily's and some divine chippy corners  !!
