Lady Heart

Hi there, it's Kay. Can't believe it's nearly Christmas, but I'm taking a break and sharing this heart panel to show some of the new Mixed Media Papers being released to trade at the beginning of 2016.  

I'm loving these new papers and unable to decide which are my favourites, but the Lost Family and Arts and Crafts After Morris sets are front runners!

The heart shaped panel was first painted with black Gee-SsoGood then covered with Townhouse Teal paint, blended with a little SleepingBeauty paint. Interest was added by stamping Teeny Backgrounds with FlitterGlu and applying Chocolate Box Mega Flakes and stamping one of the Tasty Textures stamps with Peppermint Tea paint.

I coloured the glamorous lady from the Lost Family paper set with Copic markers and now it looks just like a old fashioned tinted photo! The edges have been lightly distressed and covered with  more Mega Flakes. The script is from the Tasty Textures stamp set and helps to add a little more glitz.  

Flower shapes and patterns from the Arts and Crafts After Morris 12x12 Mixed Media Paper pad were cut out, given a wash of Snow White paint then layered to frame the lady.   

I had such fun making this panel. Talking of fun, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Take care, Kay x
