Mixed Media Canvas | Shannon Allor

Hello friends!  It's Shannon up on the blog today.  I am so honored to be Guest Designing this month.  I could not wait to jump right in and use the Mixed Media Kit for this project!

 I quickly sketched a lovely lady in the bottom right corner.  I was so inspired by the artwork in the Card Kit that I used an image for reference.  This gave me the perfect guide to know where to place my stencil and use the Prima Molding paste!

Next, I squeezed out the smallest amount of each of the three Prima paints.  They have the most lovely translucent quality.  They can be thinned out with a bit of water or used full strength.  I loved creating new tones by mixing them!

I continued to add color as well as a bit of white paint from my stash to add highlights and lighten up my Prima paints.  I am loving how this is turning out!  To add a nice amount of texture, I mixed the Prima Paints with the Molding powder.  It feels just like sugar sand.  I love the look!

Here you can see how nicely it all came together!  I borrowed a couple of small Prima flowers  and some wordy bits from another kit for a nice bit of contrast.

I cannot say enough about how much fun I had working with these gorgeous products!

You can see my process here:

I cannot wait to see what you come up with using these gorgeous kits!

Happy crafting!
