Good Morning all, i hope you all enjoyed your weekend.
Today i am sharing this Mixed Media Home Decor Canvas that i made for my mum for Mother's Day.
Box Canvas 16x6" (40x15cm) After doing the brick background (see below for details) I die cut lots of daisies from white card, made them up, added yellow stamens & florists wires for their stems. I then die cut various foliage from brusho and inked cardstocks in different shades of greens and ferns from kraft card. I then slowly built up the layout.
The top half. I added a lovely big bee metal charm ive had in my stash for years.
The bottom half, i added more foliage and ivy in the bottom as you naturally find at the bottom of a wall
Just close ups. Once it was all stuck on i sealed everything with a matt sealant to keep it all fresh.
The wall - first i added texture paste through a stencil and once dry i added black acrylic paint over the whole canvas. Once dry i put the stencil back over and added red and orange starlight paints to the bricks, i found doing it this way kept the black between the bricks better. I then added touches of green paint to give a kind of mossy effect once everything is added on top.

Tattered Lace fern dies
Joanna Sheen & Brittania Ivy dies
