Beauty


We have a new challenge starting today at

The theme is 
Anything Goes.

I created a mixed media canvas.

using  Cameo 13 from one of our sponsors this week
Morgan's Artworld

Our other sponsors this week are
 Robyns Fetish & Bugaboo.

I started with a blank 10 x 10 canvas and added
card stock that I tore into many pieces with
gel medium for some texture.
Next I painted the canvas with acrylic paints.
More texture was added by stenciling with texture paste.
I added some wood flourishes which I painted with gesso.
The image was colored with pencils and fussy cut.
I added a little bit of glitter to the image.
I popped the image with foam tape on the canvas 
and decided to add some feathers to the headpiece.
Next came the flowers in the upper corner.
I thought i needed a little something more,
so I painted 3 chip board butterflies, 
added some glitter and gems and positioned on the canvas.
The title came last and was painted with gesso.




I hope you'll join us at
Glitter 'N' Sparkle!
We love to see what you create!

MHKDesigns August Inspiration



Hello all!
Today I am on the
sharing my Inspiration Project for August.

I have a lot of time on my hands lately
so I've been experimenting with some new, to me, types of paper crafts.

This is a mixed media canvas I created using the 



I used quite a variety of items and mediums on this 7x14" canvas.
The 3 butterflies and sentiment were colored with pencils & fussy cut.
The canvas was painted, first, with 3 different glimmer mists.
I added texture with a stencil & texture paste.
I added wood elements which were painted with metallic acrylic paint.
I framed the sentiment with a die cut,
which I also painted to match the wood pieces.
There are a few metal pieces at the top.
I added paper flowers and finished up m with some pearls.

Here are some close ups




I will definitely be doing more pieces like this!

I hope I have inspired you to try something new & to
