Little Sunshine- Mixed Media Panel

Hello everyone,

Fairuz Fabiha here and welcome to the EC blog. Today I’ll be showing you how to use EC products to create a beautiful monochromatic project.

Today’s project is inspired by ‘Monochrome  theme’ that mainly came from the expressions craft September challenge mood board. 

For today I wanted to create a contrast of light and bright by using different shades of the same color. I chose the color yellow as it’s such a happy color. Yellow is a color associated with sun. It symbolizes optimism, energy, joy, happiness and friendship.

So for the base, I’ve used a plastic wood panel. The composition is done using expressions craft chipboards, flowers and used an image for the focal point.

At first I have used EC heavy white gesso to prime the base. Then for the textures I’ve used sunny yellow embossing powder and micro deco stones. And for coloring I’ve only used Amber gold chroma burst. For highlighting the elements, I’ve used soft glitter gold shimmer paint and gold metallic stencil paste.

All of the products are listed down below along with the website link. 

Hope you enjoy the close-up pictures of today’s project along with the YouTube tutorial linked down below.
