Monday Inspiration Post

Hey guys,
Welcome back, This is Creative Designer Archana here, Today I am here to share my inspiration post for our ongoing challenge, So this is what I have created:

Supplies used:
8"x8" Canvas
Cloth tags
MDF coaster
Metal Butterlfy
Glass nuggets
Immix White gesso 
Glass beads texture gel medium
Immix Chroma Burst "Cranberry Kiss", "Coral Reef", "Gamma Black", "Ice Plant", "Bright Carnival Light"
Immix Metallic paint "Ancient Gold"


To create this super simple canvas you don't need lot of supplies, I used few shades of chroma burst, art medium for pasting, mdf coaster and metal butterfly as a focal point, and our newly launched glass beads texture gel medium...

First I pasted cloth tags on to the canvas forming a random composition (Whenever we buy new cloths we get tags with them so instead of throwing them out I used them on canvas and trust me it really adds beauty and dimensional look)

Next I added MDF coaster on to it, but before adding I applied glass bead texture paste on it to give texture and add interest to blank coaster and I also added metal butterfly in center, Next I added glass nuggets on canvas at random places....

Once everything dries completely I covered entire canvas using Immix white gesso and let it dry completely, After that to color the project I used Chroma Burst...

I applied Immix Metallic Paint and then white gesso again using dry brush technique and I finished this canvas by adding Sentiment...

Voilllaaaaa!!!!! our super simple mixed media canvas is ready, I am absolutely in love with this piece, here are few more picture of this canvas :

That's it from my end today, Hope you guys have enjoyed this process, do participate in our ongoing challenge and get a chance to win exciting goodie bag from us, I will be back till then bye-bye, Take care and Happy Crafting

Love
Archana Sehgal

Monday Inspirational Post

Hello!
Today is inspirational Monday and we have our DT Ruchi  & Irina to guide you beautiful inspirational on the monthly challenge Beach Adventure

Hello all!
This is Irina Chebotareva (IraChe).

Today I'm with my inspiration by beach adventure theme.

Just imagine that once upon a time somebody lost a casket in the sea. It lay on the sea bottom a long time. And here, fisher find it in his nets. The coral polyps growth on the casket and the seashells are on it.

The base of casket is cardboard, glued outside with net.

Then I sculpted polips and funny sea plants from clay. They and various seashells I glued to casket.

Then I colored all with white Gesso.

After, I colored they with Chroma Burst. I took shades of sea: Blue Lagoon, Fresh Water, Woodland Bay, Golden Glow.

And I made sea shine with Immix Metallic Paint: Sapphire Blue, Mermaid Song, Citron Verdes, Hunter Green, Snow Pearl.

I used Immix Metallic Paint Holiday Gold to color the protruding elements for detailing. It turned out lighting parts, as rays of the sun.

Make beauty with smile,
Irina Chebotareva

Supplies Used:
Immix heavy gesso white
Chroma Burst
Immix Metallic Paint
