Challenge 23 DT Post for Creative Artiste "Young Futures"

Hello Crafty Friends and Followers

It is that time again ...Challenge 23 for 

Creative Artiste Mixed Media

Our Awesome Sponsor this month is

             

Scrapmatts

So proud of these two young hard working adults

that dedicate their time together.

They love the beach and life and are very giving in all ways

so it is a pleasure for me to mirror such dedication

by devoting this months post to them.

It is also likely that next months post following special

celebrations will feature the same duo.

In the end, I used quite a few goodies from my

Scrapmatts stash but with so much to choose from it is hard

to restrain ones inspiration...So why try and limit it...

Unforgettable Memories

To start with I used texture paste to apply triangles to

the canvas board and once dry, by turning the ink pad

upside down and rubbing over the stencilled texture

coloured it with Victoria Velvet.

Over this I stencilled with one of the NEW A4 Circles Stencils and

applied a clear gesso over it so the underlying colours were not obscured.

With Brilliance Inks & Glimmermist I added colour to the background

as well as the numerous chipboard pieces.

The central highlight of the canvas is a photo that I cut to fit the

Ornate Frame 01 which was also coloured with ink.

Once all the elements were coloured and positioned as I

wanted them they were glued.

With the exclusion of the photo, the entire canvas was dusted with

Gold Perfect Pearls using a paintbrush.

This made the whole canvas glow.

It didn't take me long to find yet another perfect title for this

creation from the extensive selection of Scrap Words and

splitting this top & bottom framed the central piece.
