4 canvases

Inspired by a class I was lucky enough to attend by Hels Sheridan.  They are four 7x5" canvases which I painted with eco friendly acrylic paint in sand and then scraped Paper Artsy fresco acrylics in Hey Pesto, Guacamole and Smoked Paprika (mixed with a little white) across the canvases. I used Dreamweaver embossing paste mixed  with the Guacamole through TCW mini splats mask., adding a little frantage to them.  I then stamped various Creative Expression and JFY stamps onto tissue paper and applied these with Mod Podge.

I then decorated one using some metal alphabet cutters that were my Mum's to spell out the word ART.  I figured that as I had never used them for baking I could make use of them with my Melt Pot! I poured a mixture of clear, black and gold embossing powder onto my craft sheet and then pressed the letters into the embossing power. 


On this one I used a grungeboard label, painted it with black acrylic paint, and then dipped it into the melt pot.  I then rubbed a little Treasure Gold into it and fixed it with a couple of brads. 
 
 
I die cut the smallest Joy butterfly from chipboard, painted with the Smoked Paprika paint and again dipped in the Melt Pot.
