I have made an 8" (20cms) mixed media canvas this month. I have used Lindy's Magicals set Beauty School Dropout to colour all the elements.
1. I started by sprinkling Lindy's Kissing Kenickie Coral all over the canvas and adding water to activate it.
2. I sprinkled some wooden hearts and paper straws too.
3. I wanted a bit of a contrast for the paper flowers, so, I used Pink Ladies Pink.
4. Some die cut leaves were sprinkled with T-bird Turquoise.
5. Once the Magicals were dry, I splattered some diluted gold acrylic paint over the canvas, hearts and flowers.
I coloured a torn piece of watercolour card with Lindy's Pineapple Crush from Caribbean Cruise set and added that behind the hearts and straws arrangement.
The hearts were added to the straws using Prima's 3D Matt Gel.
I arranged the roses and tucked in the leaves using the 3D Gel
