This is a reverse canvas, it measures 8 by 10 inches. I covered the whole front of the canvas with gesso. I stenciled on Prima Platinum Crackle Texture Paste with a small spatula onto the frame and on the inside of the canvas. I attached some items with double sided foam tape and used corrugated cardboard under the image to make it higher. I glued on other items with Glossy Accents.

I brushed on Huez. I loved using these new colors, they're so clean and bold! I added Shimmerz and Inklingz to balance the bright colors with some neutrals.

To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads, pearls,gold leaf, crystals, glass glitter, tulle, feathers,moss, wire, and bling and metal from my stash. 

      Many of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents. 

I added a lot of black tulle to blend in the photo with the background.

I rubbed on gold,copper and pearl mica powder on a lot of areas and items on the page.

To make this page, I stenciled on Prima Platinum Crackle Texture Paste with a small spatula onto watercolor paper.

  I added a watercolor mat under the photo, and a cardboard mat under that. I put white gesso onto  corrugated cardboard, then poured on ultra thick embossing powder onto the wet gesso. I heated it with heat gun. 

 I put dimension between the layers with cardboard.

 I brushed on Huez. I loved using these new colors, they're so clean and bold!

To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads, pearls, crystals, glass glitter,sequins, ephemera, tulle, feathers,dried flowers,paper flowers, and bling and metal from my stash.

Huez are highly pigmented watercolor powders that burst to life with just a touch of water! Sprinkle, spritz, mix, and paint to create vibrant washes, bold color, and beautifully unique effects. Use them on paper, art journals, mixed media projects, and more—just add water and Live Colorfully!
