Now on to my 2Crafty Project....

 

"Baby"

 

I created this soft sweet and delicate canvas for a lovely friend of mine who has just recently had a little baby boy.  The cute "Baby" banner chipboard piece was just a perfect fit.

I primed the chipboard with Gesso and went around the edges in some baby blue ink.  Then smearing with my finger in random places some Shimmerz.  I have also added some foam thickers over the top of the inscribed "baby" letters. 

I have also used some cute butterfly chipboard which I inked (such a simple but effect way to alter chipboard) and also slightly bent it in the middle for a 3D effect.

 

And lastly I created my background of this canvas using some Hexagon shape chipboard.  I placed them onto the canvas raw, then just painted over with some Gesso until all chipboard was well covered.  Once this was dry, a couple of mists were sprayed.  Next I placed my muslin over the top for more texture and then went around the outline of the hexagons with a water coloured pencil.  Love this effect.

 

A mixture of Prima, Manor House and Kaisercraft flowers used on this canvas.
