Hello! I hope all of you are having a great summer, well mine has been a little hard but I'm still recovering day by day. My poor blog is behind and today I will show you a canvas that I made with the July Mixed Media kit by My Creative Scrapbook.
More details... |
I had a lot of fun creating with this kit and I will show you step by step how I did it. Let's get started!! Canvas Tutorial |
I'm working in this canvas with the heart canvas album from Maya Road, Melisa Frances's jar, Glitz stamp, tissue paper and embellishments from the Mixed Media Kit. |
I worked with a 11" x 16" canvas and covered with the tissue paper from the kit. I used Mod Podge to glue the tissue paper. |
Here's the canvas covered with the tissue paper, then I gave an extra coat with Mod Podge. |
Then apply gesso to all the canvas. |
With a wipe eliminate the excess of gesso. |
I put apart the hearts and made this design and then with a pencil mark around it. |
With a mask and molding paste I gave texture around the hearts. |
Continue doing this around all the design(hearts). |
Then apply gesso to the canvas hearts, don't cover it all with gesso. |
When they are dry, apply paint. First, I painted with Sage color and then with pink color. |
Using the Glitz stamp from the kit, start to stamp in some areas of the canvas. |
Stamp in the canvas heart, too. |
Take the canvas heart like pattern and cut four mat for them 1/4" largest. I used the paper from the July Limited Edition kit and glue them in the canvas like the photo. |
I sew around each of the heart and next I tied two hearts by the rings with a twine from my stuff. |
Then tie the two others hearts and glue them in the mats. |
The Mixed Media kit comes with this beautiful yellow flower that I painted in pink. I also painted another flower from the Limited Edition kit for my canvas. . |
Now it's time to start to decorate and to place my photos. I handle my photos to the twine with the tiny clothespins from my kit. |
I filled the glass bottle with the silver beads from the kit. |
It should look like this... |
I covered my design with wax paper and then my final touch is with the Antique Copper Maya Mist from the kit. Closer details... |
The final result. I hope this inspired you!!! The Mixed Media Kit is an awesome kit to develop your creativity, so don't wait any longer and get this kit...HERE |
