Hi Everyone!
Are you enjoying the challenge this month so far? I see there are a few entries already posted on the Facebook share page and they are fantastic! I hope to inspire a few more entries today.
I've created a small canvas to share with you today. I've used Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays that have a shimmer.
I didn't really have a plan when I first started. I knew what I would like to use but I was unsure if I would use them.
I glued strips of 7 Dots Studio papers (Cotton Candy and Write's Block) across my canvas and covered them with gesso.
I did hope that some of the detail on the papers would show through.
I glued on the metal elements that I wanted to form the base of my design first and coated them with gesso. Then the rest of my metal elements, shapes, jewels, stones and beads. Next, a final coat of gesso.
Once dry I sprayed my lightest colour in the middle and worked my way towards the edges using darker shades. It required a couple of coats to get the result I wanted. I had hoped that the colours would drip along the strips, but they didn't. At least not the way I wanted.
To highlight some of my elements I added some wax from my stash just to make a few details stand out.
I finished with a Tim Holtz sticker.
I hope you like it.
Jen.
