That is one other of these initiatives that ended up fairly in another way to how I deliberate initially! Typically it’s irritating that the imaginative and prescient would not work out – however I do benefit from the journey of how in another way issues evolve.
This piece of wall artwork is mounted on 8×8 inch gray board with an extra 6 inch panel and a circle, each greyboard, creating some dimension.
My essential provides are proven above – though I additionally used some PaperArtsy Printe Tissue paper. I selected earthy colors to mirror our Nature theme and a few pretty Dragonfly Mattint for some distinction.
I solely added the embossing to half of this background.
For the bigger panel and small circle – I added PaperArtsy Mattint (Dragonfly) earlier than laying over a bit (really completely different leftover sections) from PaperArtsy Printed Tissue – Alison Bomber.
The very first thing I made a decision to do with my layers was create a border / body utilizing the infusions/stencilled card inventory. The was an A4 sheet – so I first lower it right down to be 8×8 (the scale of the massive panel). I then lower a 6×6 inch sq. from the center to suit onto smaller gray board panel.
I highlighted the sides of my border/body with a brown Sharpie earlier than adhering to the bigger panel.
Time to create some gildings. I took a bit of card and added some Dragonfly Mattint earlier than randomly stamping one of many Pressed Foliage stamps from PaperArtsy Stamp Set EAB39 (by Alison Bomber).
I then used the stencil from Tracy Scott to create some leaves/petals.
I additionally used Tracy’s stencil to make these nook gildings.
I collected some leaves, shells, stones and twigs to doubtlessly add for our Nature them – however determined to make use of the twigs and made them into bundles.
Lastly the focal quote – this was stamped onto some torn card with some PaperArtsy Mattint (Glow) added. I distressed the sides with some Ranger Misery Ink (Floor Expresso).
I then began adhering all of it collectively. The gray board panels naturally add dimension and I raised the quote additional through the use of foam pads.
The ultimate piece! An amazing quote from Vincent van Gogh and really related for the Nature theme. I’ve additionally tried to mirror this in all the weather, colors and tones I’ve used.
