Watching Over

Hello and welcome,  Kay M here to share a panel with you today.   I've used the beautiful Angel from Peace On Earth to watch over and bless a town.  

A 6x6 (15cm x15cm) grey board was painted with BlackGeeSsoGood and then Sleeping Beauty metallic paint to make a night time sky.   FlitterGlu was sponged through the Starburst stencil in the top left corner and Sheffield Steel Megaflake applied.  

Black GeeSsoGood and Super Thick Slap-it-On were mixed together and applied  through the Whimsical Houses stencil onto orange card,  when dry the houses were cut out.  Unicorn Sparkles and Super Thick Slap-it-On were mixed together and  used to edge the house's roofs and applied through the Stars stencil onto the night sky.  The houses were then attached to the panel to make a townscape.

The Angel was stamped twice onto white card and painted with Luscious, one Angel was cut out completely and the other just the wings.  Both had a little of the remaining Unicorn Sparkles mixture spread over them before the extra wings were attached and added to the panel. 

The sentiment from Spirit of Christmas was stamped on a little painted card, embossed in white, cut out and edged with Unicorn Sparkles and adhered to the panel to finish the panel. 

I do hope your holiday preparations are going well and you are still able to get creative!

Take care,  Kay M 

Family Canvas

Hello and welcome, Kay M here to share the canvas I made for this month's seasonal theme of bonfires and fireworks.   

November has a few annual family gatherings involving food, bonfires and fireworks and where there's a gathering there's the group photo!   I've used one from the  Lost Family paper stack as the main image.

A 20cm x 25cm canvas was painted with Gee-Sso-Good black, when dry,  a Sleeping Beauty wash was painted over and more black sponged around the edges to frame the canvas.

Unicorn Sparkles was mixed with Super Thick Slap-It-On and used through the Starburst Stencil three times on the canvas and left to dry.   Pink Luscious was then added to the mixture and this was used through the Weird Science Stencil into the centre of the Starbursts.  This same mix was watered down and splattered over the canvas,  when dry,  white paint splatters and lines were added.

The elements were prepared. 
I used fine texture paste through the Laurel stencil and fussy cut them out when dry, they were painted with a Emerald City and Pheasant Bronze mix and then dusted with Gold Luscious.   Wooden sentiments were painted with Gee-Sso-Good black then dry brushed with Vodka Martini and a little Hot Cocoa and backed with white card.   The family were fussy cut and a black pen run over the cut edges. 

To finish, the family group was attached with silicon glue and the laurel leaves adhered horizontally behind and in front of them.  The sentiments placed as shown.

I love how the Unicorn Sparkles work with the Starburst stencil to look like an exploding firework.  I do hope you have enjoyed this canvas.

Take care until next time,  Kay M x
