Through Santa's Eyes... (Photo Tutorial)

Greetings everyone!

This is Isha Pai and today I am here on the blog to share a detailed photo tutorial of my project "Through Santa's Eyes" which goes very well with the current monthly theme

Winter Celebration.

This project depicts a beautiful house which is decorated for Christmas and Santa is spying on the house through the window on when and how to get into the house. Also, in this project the reindeer stands camouflage with the wall of the house, as he is sent by Santa himself to have a close look of the house.

In this project I have used newly launched chippies like Mistletoe (leaf and berries) and Pillar flourish frame.

Let's begin with the photo tutorial:

Step 1: I took an 8" by 8" MDF base, with panel of a window. And few newly launched chippes. The picture shows snowflake and star chippies also, but I decided to not use in the project as it will go unnoticed.

Step 2: Then after pasting the window panel with glue gun, I pasted few molded bricks and later applied a coat of Heavy White Gesso with the help of a sponge dabber and then added Deco art stones mixed with Opaque Matte Texture Paste.

Step 3: Applied a thin coat of Heavy White Gesso and then painted the reindeer with Sprinkle Mist Chest Nut and two Christmas trees with Sprinkle Mist Deep Teal Blue. Also painted the mistletoe chippie with Metallic paints like - Ancient gold, Wedding Red and Mermaid Song. And painted Pillar flourish frame chippie with ancient gold metallic paint.

Step 4: Then I colored the base with Sprinkle Mists - Blaze Orange, Chest Nut and Deep teal blue.

Lastly I pasted all the embellishments with some dried moss and enhanced the Winter look with Ice & Snow Texture Paste and Rainbow Sparks.

Materials used in this project are:

1. Heavy White Gesso

2. Opaque Matte texture paste

3. Ice & Snow Texture Paste

4. Deco stones Mini and Medium

5. Sprinkle Mist - Chest Nut, Deep Teal Blue and Blaze Orange

6. Metallic Paints - Wedding red, Mermaid song and Ancient Gold

7. Chipboard - Mistletoe and Pillar Flourish Frame

8. Rainbow Sparks

Beautiful winter canvas with textere paste. Photo tutorial.

Hello all!

This is Irina Chebotareva (IraChe).

Today I, IraChe, with the unique photo tutorial about creation of mixed media canvas, inspired by our month theme "Winter celebrations".

In this canvas I want to show how the last Autumn leaves was covered with thin ice. Then they set their lacy imprint on it.

here is the step by step process,
I took a thick cardstock for the base. I cover it with white gesso.

Then I cover all with texture paste. To made an leaves imprint I lay leaves on wet paste cover and pull they down. In empty places between leaves I add texture paste too.

When, the paste dry up (not completly) I remove the leaves. Then I left the paste to dry.

And started to coloring. I used Chroma Burst. I wet the canvas with water spray and I added color to veins, first - fresh water, after - silk magic magenda. In the end I added some drops of Golden glow.
