Adventure

I love to make mixed media and especially as a present for some loverly familly or friends.

My dear friend Monica visited her father lately in Norway and send me some wonderfull pictures. With this one i new exacley what to do with it.... making a special chirstmas present for her.

I started with a 20x20 canvasboard. The edges i made blue with my favourite Versamagic Ink Night Sky GD56.



Then i found the perfect paper for my project. In the Blue Magnolia Collection from 13arts (13@rts). It has a wooden look in dark blue and black. Offcourse i ditressed my edges.

To give it an nice structure on the back side is used a mask from DDBD with snowflakes. And this time i used Viva Decor Eis Effect Holo (113990550) as a structurepaste.

When it dried a made the composition with the picture and some cardboard with a fine sturcture.

And several lovely items from Snipart from the Frosty Moments Collection.

I used  FroKru2SB, FroSmo2SB and the Big Snowflakes. The text adventure is also from Snipart Create Art XXL CA14x26CB.

To give them the perfect color which matches with the picture i used Inka Gold Tinte (124095036) AND Old Silver (120490936).

At first i used the ligh one and than when it dried i used the darker one.

For the text i used only the light one on top of the text and let i change color with the versamagic inks.

When everything was fit together is covered the picture and made some gesso splash on it and when that dried the finish touch was made with some mat medium from IndigoBlu (SlapitOn) with a lot of eiskristals from Viva Decor (6651)

It is lovely to make art like this, but even more special to make it for a dear dear friend. I hope she likes it.

Please leave your comments below... ask if you want... i would be honored to help you out.

With Love
