Hi bloggers! Today I would like to share this canvas which was inspired by the very talented Hels Sheridan. I started with a piece of cardboard which I coated with white modelling paste. While the paste was still wet I stamped the top and bottom with a Craftynotions Karantha Stamp - ' Cottage Garden: Summer Meadow'. I left it overnight to dry then brushed with green and blue Pan Pastels. I then inked through part of a Pronty Mask Stencil - 'A4 Butterfly' with Wild Plum Adirondack. The butterflies and birdcage are Spellbinders 'Les Papillions' and 'Bird Cage Two' which I cut out of Copper Engraving Board and sanded back. The 'Live Laugh Love' and black edges are Visible Image stamps which came free with this month's 'Craft Stamper' Magazine. I stuck the cardboard to a 5 x 7 canvas board which I had edged in black.
I would like to enter this project into the following challenges:
I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!
