Hello eveyone !
Today I have the pleasure of sharing my new creation with you, which I created
with some of the beautiful 2Crafty chippies!
Each time I work with my 2Crafty chippies, I feel inspired, because each
piece of chipboard is a precious embellishment.
This month, I decided to work with something different!
Here is a home decor canvas that will have a special place in my home!
I didn't want to work with a photo this time, I needed a change!
So I choose a beautiful picture that would fit in the beautiful little resin frame,
and it served as my main element in my canvas.
So I decided to build my canvas around this element. Looking at the picture and the thin dainty branch, I was then drawn to the "Leafy Rounds", with their delicate and thin branches and berry
like bits and thought that they matched the image in the picture.
To complete the work on my canvas, I decided to use some geometric elements that
would be an extention of the resin frame.
And what a pleasure for me to discover the "Bubble grid panel".
Yes, this was also a great element for my canvas, because I find with this chipboard
right angles that remind me of the right angle from the frame, and at the same time,
the small bubbles in the grid remind the berries.... with some imagination!
I wanted to make a very bright canvas because I find that the light inspires serenity.
First of all my mixed media work on this canvas is made with light colors.
I decided to paint my chipboard with a white color. Here I diluted white gesso
with some water and I painted my chippies with this texture.
Just my title "Escape" has been left natural, I needed to have some contrast.
To remind me of the main picture in the centre, I decided to add some big India ink drops.
Here and below are some close-ups, where you can see these beautiful chipboards !
I hope that
you like my canvas work without a photo!
Hope it helps to inspire you and maybe try a Canvas using some beautiful chipboard.
