Creative Team - Flying High Mixed Media Project
By Creative Team Member - Linda Drynan
Supplies:
Pre primed board, canvas, thick cardstock, art journal etc (I used a 6 inch square MDF panel)
Distress oxide stamp pads - gathered twigs, worn lipstick,
antique linen, vintage photo
Pages from an old book
Black texture paste (or white with a bit of black gesso added
works!)
Needle and black thread
Baby wipes
Black Archival or Staz On Jet Black stamp pad
Glue stick
Paper towel
Instructions:
Tear some strips from the book pages and adhere to the
board. Using the sponge applicator apply
gathered twigs, worn lipstick and antique linen randomly over the board. Spritz
water onto finger tips and flick onto board and dab off with paper towel. Draw a couple of circles and a heart using
your choice of distress crayons and smear with baby wipe. Then stamp the shapes over the top of the
crayon drawings. Using Vintage photo, go
around the outside of the panel to add some depth and contrast. Select the person you want use and stencil
them in the corner with the texture paste. Let dry!!
Layer a couple of pieces of the book pages and die cut the full heart
from the die set. Giving you lots of cut heart shapes!
Using a paper piercer, put holes through the middle of multiple layers
of the paper hearts. Then thread the needle with double thread and stitch the
hearts leaving long threads to show and to reach to your stencilled person.
Stick hearts onto board and glue threads to a hand on your person.
A pretty piece with clever heart balloons
