Woodn't it be Lovely?

Woodn't it be Lovely

Hi there!

Are you enjoying this

theme as much as I am?

When I first saw these

wooden embellishments

I was somewhat bemused

but I am fast becoming

a convert to their versatility

In case you haven't quite

made up your mind take

a look at Hazel Harler's canvas:

 "Hi everybody, my latest project 

is an oriental canvas using

Kaisercraft wooden flourishes 

and Color Bloom sprays.

 I used a canvas board, 

Kaisercraft wooden flourishes

 and a piece of chipboard.

 I also used Kaisercraft stencils

 and blosson stamp - 

in the end I didn't use the bamboo stencill

I stencilled some modelling paste 

on the canvas board and 

when it was dry I gave 

it a coat of gesso. 

I also gave the chipboard and

 flourishes a coat of gesso.

 To colour the canvas I scribbled

 some Gelatos over it.

Then I used a baby wipe to spread the colour.

I turned the canvas upside down 

and sprayed some sunshine Color Bloom 

and let it run down the canvas, 

then added some dragonfly blue Color Bloom.

I then sprayed some iris Colour Bloom 

on the top and let it run down the canvas.

Then I sprayed some wild raspberry Color Bloom.

I stamped the main image onto tissue paper

and on the back painted the face white,

 I also stamped the blossom onto tissue paper 

and then used matte medium to glue them 

to the canvas and chipboard. 

The wooden flourishes were painted with

 iris Color Bloom.

 I glued the wooden flourishes and

 image to the canvas and then I used 

my finger to spread some white gold

 Starlight paint over the blooms

 and edges.

Starlight paint and the sequins
