Its February and Love is in the air !!
And all the more in blogland :-) I see a lot of challenges asking for projects with non traditional colours , no hearts and all sorts of out-of-box ideas for Valentine's day.Of all , I loved Beyond Grey's second challenge.
No red or pink and no hearts. I came up with 6X8 Mixed media canvas with all unconventional colours.My theme for this canvas is "Love is the Key"
Here is the canvas:
I created a stripped background, by masking with a tape and painting with Gold coloured acrylic paint.I added some layers with handmade paper and Echo Park pattern paper.The word Love is hand cut and the key is from stash. I added a net ,saved from old fruit packaging (inspired by Ujjwal !!!), to add some extra dimension.

Cute! Love the buttons and key.
ReplyDeleteP/s: This is not very dimensional so gel medium would work. Gel medium works like varnish...it's just acid-free and protects your work from turning yellow or having age spots over time.
