Isn't this Vintage Cutie Canvas Art just the sweetest?!!
(& it's super easy to re-create!)
Here's how......
Isn't this Vintage Cutie Canvas Art just the sweetest?!!
(& it's super easy to re-create!)
Here's how......
I am a scrapbooker by heart, so naturally my canvas artworks usually start with some form of collage. I chose some newsprint ephemera paper that I had in my stash, and gave it a quick tear.
I then got out my Tropical 4pk Gelatos and started colouring, blending and having a bit of fun!
As you can see, I had quite a bit of fun!
I even splattered the watered down pink for extra dimension.
Once my canvas was dry,
I got out my permanent black ink & those fabulous stamps from
the Art Textures Cling Stamp Set and had some more fun!
This stamp set is truly a staple *Must Have* for any stampers collection - it's just so versatile, and is perfect for all mixed media creations!
Next, attach lace and then adhere that divine Vintage Cuties Clip Art image.
Add pearl trim & start embellishing your canvas......
I added a few 'precious' vintage metals and paper blooms to create interest.
I also wanted to add to that 'fairy tale' feel so,
I stamped a cute tiny crown,
& a fairy friends bird onto some scrap paper.
I then fussy cut them & attached to the canvas, as shown.
Such a sweet embellishment!
And there you have it! Told you it was super easy to recreate!
A really beautiful Mixed Media Monday!
Hope you liked this creation!
