Butterfly Canvas

The theme for the August Challenge over at Mixed Media Mojo is Anything Goes.

For my DT piece I made a Butterfly Canvas.


I started by sprinkling Brushos onto the canvas and spraying with water.


I then covered the canvas with tissue wrap and painted it with clear gesso.


Then I stencilled some DecoArt Media Modelling paste, let it dry and painted it with white gesso.


I then coloured it with Gelatos and sprayed water, when it had dried I stamped some script and splattered with white paint.


For the large butterflies I used a Stampendous stamp and cutting dies, for the small butterfly I used a Martha Stuart punch and stamp. For the quote I used a stamp by The Artistic Stamper.


My DT teamies would love you to visit Mixed Media Mojo to have a look at their fabulous makes.
