Today's post is one of my Mixed Media projects that I made for a friend. It is on a piece of wood panel from Zutter and is the front of a notebook yet to be made, like Lisa Hoel had done. I also took Lynne Forsythe's inspiration of using
Wendy Vecchi's embossing paste through Tim Holtz's Hearts stencil then drying it and adding Ken Oliver's Gamboge Colorburst powder, then spritzing it with water. But the first thing I did was to use Pan Pastels in red and yellow on a piece of Watercolor paper. This
sentiment is Impression Obsession by Yvonne Blair's which was stamped with Versamark. After I die cut the
Sizzix Caged Bird onto a slick paptern paper I added
Viva Crackle Paste, dried it and then after dry I again added Ken Oliver's Colorburst in Cerulean Blue, and then added the Gamboge again. The flower is
Stampendous Lovely Garden Jumbo and die, stamped with Momento Tuxedo Black ink, onto watercolor paper. Sprinkled with Ken Oliver Colorburst in Scarlet amd Spritzed with water and layered a little more. The colors I used all were from Ken Oliver's Color Burst Rich Moroccan Shades and I love them!! The last step was taking the wood piece and Stayz On black ink onto the edges before glueing it down with Beacons 3 in One adhesive.
Well, that's all for me now! Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful piece! I love the color palette you've chosen and how you've blended and combined all those shades of pink and orange so beautifully! This card has both warmth and whimsy and I love how the bird gives it just the right pop of color. Excellent composition and an amazing eye for detail.
