Hello Sweeties,
Today I’m up on Lindy’s Gang blog with a brand new canvas. I worked with a photo from Denis Chekanov and beautiful sprays from Lindys including colored it with Ponderosa Pines Olive, C’est La Vie Cerise, Mystic Malachite, and Black Hole Black.
I applied an uneven layer of Paper Paste and Modeling Paste on the canvas. When dry, I colored it with Ponderosa Pines Olive, C’est La Vie Cerise, Mystic Malachite, and Black Hole Black. As you know, Lindy’s Gang inks are water-reactive. It means that every time you applied a new color or media, the colors will react and the result will be different. To make the background colors permanent, I simply applied a fixative. Now I will be able to apply any color or media I want without affecting the background.
I embossed the Mandala with Silence is Golden Chunky EP.
I’ve die-cut some leaves in watercolor paper and colored them with Buccaneer Bay Blue, Mystic Malachite, Ponderosa Pines Olive. I added some shine to the flowers with the Blazing Sun Glitz Spritz. Unfortunately, you can’t see it in the photos.
When the background was completely dry, I added a design with a stencil and a Clear Crackle paste missed with Antique Gold and Gleaming Gold. The result looks like a yellow amber. Next, I glued some Gold Metallic flakes which I covered with Clear Crackle paste as well.
When everything was glued, I added some glitter to finish the composition.
