"Spread Your Wings & Fly" Mixed Media Canvas
Hello Craft Friends!
It's hard to believe September has arrived! It still feels like summer where I live. I'm excited to share my first September Project using the newest Tres Jolie September Mixed Media kit!
This month's kit has some great Mixed mediums to play with. First off you get Studio Light's Structure paste, Lindy's Flat Magicals in 5 different colors: Mountain Meadows, Wild Rose Rouge, Evergreen Emerald, Foxglove Fuchsia and Stormy Sky! Also included are Tres Jolie Chipboard Angel Wings-2 pieces, Lindy's Glitz Spritz-Pixie dust, Prima marketing Art papers and Finnibair Mechanicals- Grungy Butterflies.
Here's a photo of the Mixed Media kit:
Be sure to order your kit today before they are gone!
From my stash, I will be using a blank white 12x12 canvas for the base of my project. I purchased this at my local craft store. Waterbrush, small paintbrush, Cosmic Glitter Kiss, foam tape and Sticker sentiment.
To begin I took the Studio Light's Structure paste and applied with my pallet knife around the edges of my canvas. Let dry. See photos below:
Taking a waterbrush, and Lindy's Flat Magicals Moutain Meadow & Stormy Sky, (Note: you only need a very tiny amount of Magical powder. The colors are vibrant and mix well with water) I applied both powders one at a time, blending the colors with my waterbrush, along the edges over the top of my Structure paste. Let dry. See photos:
Now taking a small amount of Lindy's Glitz Spritz-Pixie dust, apply over top to add some Shimmer, until you get the desired effect you want.
Here's how mine looks so far:
Set your canvas aside for now. Next take both Chipboard Angel wings and apply the Structure paste inside each section of your Angel wings, using a small brush. See photos:
Now taking some Cosmic Shimmer Glitter Kiss from my stash, I applied this around the outside edges on my angel wings.Let dry. See photo:
Next I took Lindy's Flat Magicals Moutain Meadow, Wild Rose Rouge, Stormy Sky Glitz Lindy's Spritz-Pixiedust, Lindy's magicals Bright Yellow powder(my stash) and with a small paintbrush, I applied these powders over top of the structure paste and inside each section on each Angel wing. Here's some photos:
Set your Angel wings aside to dry. Bring your canvas on your workspace and with my waterbrush I applied some more Lindy's Flat Magicals Moutain Meadow and Stormy Sky along with Lindy's Glitz Spritz-Pixie dust, in the center of my canvas See photo:
Now take your Chipboard Angel Wings and apply foam tape on the backside of each wing. See photo:
Apply both of your Angel wings on each side facing each other, with some space between. Take several different sizes of Finnibair Mechanicals Butterflies, bending the wings upward, then glue on top corners, and along the bottom edge. From my stash, I glued this sticker sentiment at the bottom.
Here's some closeup photos:
Now we all finished with our project and it's ready to display!
