Today's DT project for Visible Image is a mixed media canvas, featuring the stunning Break Free set as the main focal point. This was so much fun to make!
I started with a piece on thick backing board recycled from a paper pad. I adhered corrugated cardboard and used the Ink Swirls stencil and texture paste for my base layer .
Once the texture paste was dry, I applied generous smatterings of Izink sand texture paste and left to air dry.
The next stage was to cover with gesso and again. leave to dry ( I am SO impatient when it comes to things drying so these steps were very frustrating for me haha!)
Then cam the fun part! I set to work with a combination of spray paints and distress oxide sprays.
They reacted beautifully together and just look at that texture!
Once the paint was dry ( yes, more drying!!) , I used the fabulous new Grunge Tones stamps with white paint to add more texture, and added paint splatters with a fan brush.
I used the Break Free stamp set, embossed in white, on an inky mop up sheet I had to hand, and fussy cut. I added more texture by mounting it on top of some sisal. I just love the natural fibres for creating interest.
I added the sentiment from the Lost for Words set and layered on black card to finish.
