A Mixed Media Canvas

Hi there!

Tania here with you today to share a canvas and a photo tutorial.

Lots of yummy WOW Products Used :

Chicken Wire Piece - WOW1636

Fabulously You Title - WOW2464

Mini Background Panel 2 - WOW2182

Butterfly Elements - WOW1858

Messy Circle Frames - WOW2144

To begin with I firstly applied 2-3 different coloured acrylic paints with an old credit card.

Once this was dry (I sped up each step by drying off each layer with a heat tool)

I grabbed one of my stencils and randomly applied texture paste over the canvas.

I repeated the above process with the second stencil.

Next up I added all my chipboard pieces and adhered them to the canvas.

Then it was time to give it a nice thick coat of gesso, I applied the gesso with a sponge so it would give it more texture.

This next bit was where all the fun happened, I used an assortment of different 

sprays and sprayed them randomly over the canvas until I got the effect I was looking for. 

I then grabbed a Gold paint dabber and painted the title, the butterfly and the frame around my photo, and then dabbed the paint over different parts of the canvas.

To finish off the canvas I embellished it with lots of yummy blooms and an assortment of pearls.

Some close ups of my finished canvas!  

Well thats all from me today.

Thanks so much for stopping by and happy crafting

Altered Ornate Shadow Box

Hello there!

Tania back with you today to share this quick and easy photo tutorial on how I altered one of the WOW Chipboard Ornate Shadow Boxes - M15.

Once I had assembled my shadow box I mixed a little bit of one of my Dylusions sprays (aqua based) with some Gesso.  With a large sponge I applied it to my shadow box quite thick, when it was almost dry I gave it another coat. As you can see it gave it some great texture.

I then used some Ken Oliver Color Bursts to give my shadow box some colour.  I just love this product, lots of fun and looks awesome.  I chose purple for this project.  I sprinkled the Color Burst randomly over the shadow box and then spritzed it with water until I was happy with the colour......How easy is that??

I finished off my shadow box with some New release chipboard - Dangles and one of the "Love This" quote from the Fun-Multi Word Pack WOW2457 which I sprayed with Dylusions sprays and lastly added lots of yummy blooms.

Here's a couple of close ups.

I also wanted to share a couple of other projects I made recently using some yummy WOW products.

I created this first layout for White With One's new challenge. Butterfly Elements WOW1858, Hanging Heart Flourish WOW2287,  Fun-Multi Word Pack WOW2457  and the 6 x 6 Moroccan Stencil ALTA138.

My second project was created for Off the Rails latest Mood Board Challenge.

I have used a New Release "Summer At The Beach" WOW2466 Chipboard Title on this one. 

Well that's all from me today.  I do hope you have enjoyed the projects I have shared with you today.

Be sure to check out the Website for products and stockists and our new WOW Creations Facebook page. Can't wait to see your creations on there using all the gorgeous WOW products.

Until next time,

Tania xx
