Hi, Lynn Good here and I am SUPER excited to be part of the Memory Maze Design team and for my first project I have created a 12 x 12 board to hang in my craft room.
I had my husband cut a piece of mdf 12x12 - I was going to apply alot of mixed media and hang it on the wall so I wanted something sturdy.
Some shots and explanation of what I have done:
I began by randomly applying torn up dictionary paper, book paper, and wrapping paper. I covered this with heavy white gesso, wiping back areas so the papers still peeked through.
On top of this I then applied white crackle paste.
Once the crackle paste was dry I covered it with acrylic paint - I used Cobalt Turquois Fluid Acrylic from Golden Paints. Quickly before it dries I wiped and rubbed with a wet wipe so all I was left with was the colour in the crackle and bumps. I then also applied some Bone Black Fluid acrylic randomly on the crackles and wiped away.
I have painted all the chipboard pieces with white gesso. I used the crackle paste on the centre of the doily and embossed the edges with White Embossing Powder and then a sparkle embossing powder on the top.
I paint the small wrought iron flourishes with white paint
The butterflies I painted with the Golden Fluid Acrylic Paint - Cobalt Turquois
The black chipboard in the photo is the centres on the circles on circles chipboard. I embossed them used Stampendous Aged Black Embossing Enamel
The Crackle on the chipboard tag was created by painting the Cobalt Turquois on the chipboard. Once dry I covered it with Deco Art Crackling Medium and set that aside to dry. Once dry I painted the tag with White Paint and left the crackling medium to do its job.
The chipboard title - Love - was covered with the Aged Black Embossing Enamel.
Here are some more close ups:
Thanks for stopping by and I cant wait to create another project for you all.
