Live in the Moment

Saturday, 14 May 2016
Today I am sharing a layout I have created with you. This layout has been inspired by the More than Words challenge for this month and the Words & Paintery challenge. I have combined the challenges to create an over the top layout that I can frame for my wall.


Rusty book

When I saw Finnabair's rusty book, I knew I wanted to try making one for myself, and when I found an old bible that belonged to my Dad that is no longer in use I thought it would be perfect.


Finnabair Inspired Canvas

Tuesday, 21 October 2014

Today I have made a Finnabair inspired canvas. If you have never seen any of her work, here is the link to her blog http://tworzysko.blogspot.com.au/. She is amazing.




First I covered the canvas in black gesso.

I then stuck on lots of ephemera and flowers. This is the fun part. It doesn't matter what colour they are as the next step is to cover them all in a layer of black gesso (you can also so this with white gesso).

I then sprayed it with Lindy Stamp Gang Starburst sprays. I used quite a few layers of these to get a nice coverage and shimmer. I then used gold paint to add some highlights and I was done.
