Canvas


Readysteadystamp have a long list of ingredients again for their latest challenge,think I have included quite a few on my canvas but I really could not find a use for eggshells on it ! The things I have used are 1.Canvas. 2. wings(on the butterfly) 3.Little girl theme. 4. acrylic paint. 5. alcohol inks(on the flower) 6.Pink. 7.pearls & gems. 8. metal flower. 9.Lace. 10. ink & distressed paper and 11.butterfly. I have actually made this canvas twice ! had it almost finished when I thought I would just run a bit of darker pink paint round the edges ( I never can let well alone) opened the paint and squeezed it to get a little bit on my finger and the paint shot out like a fountain all over my canvas,the table and down the wall! I said "oh dear " (or something like that !) I almost decided to give in but don't like to be beaten so started all over again, at least I had the metal flower made but had to tea dye some more lace etc, taken me all day on and off but I quite like it now its finished. Don't usually enter things into two challenges but I,m also putting it into Tuesday Taggers this time. They are being sponsored by Art From The Heart this week who are offering some of their new ink sprays, would love to win them !
