We are sponsored this month by
Dusty Attic
And the mixed media theme is
"Anything Goes"
with the option of
"Use Chipboard, Stencils or Flowers"
I opted to use stencils and flowers and I decorated this 8"x 8" (20cm x 20cm) canvas.
I first cut out a couple of clouds and used them as masks while I painted the canvas with a pale blue acrylic. Then I used an ivy stencil with green acrylic paint. I made the fences with lolly sticks from Docrafts Craft Planet range.
I cut circles of felt to make the spiral roses and leaf shapes from green felt which I pinched and glued. I topped the roses with pearls.
The sentiment stamp is from the Enjoy Life set by IndigoBlu and was stamped with Paris Dusk Memento ink.
Now please visit the Creative Artiste Challenge Blog to see the wonderful projects created by my talented team mates. Remember to have fun and enter your "Anything Goes" or "Chipboard, Stencils or Flowers" mixed media creations in the challenge.
I've entered this project into the following challenges:
