'Dream Chaser' by Emma Zappone with VIDEO

Welcome to my Thursday share.
I have an 8x10" canvas with VIDEO for you today.
It is based on this months Palette Play 'Natures Bounty'

I'm not going to lie, this Palette excited me, as I love browns and greens. The earthy feel this has is sensational.

You can check out my YouTube Video here to see it all play out.....

I had fun mixing and matching some of the Lucky Findings papers for this project.
And I love the effect the transparency from the 'Earthly Riches' collection has for the background.

I love how it looks like a large stamped area.
I also added papers from the 'Velveteen Elk' collection, they matched the Earthly Riches range just beautifully. There is also a layer of a 'Ciao Bella' rice paper to compliment all the layers.

I loved adding all the textural elements also. Like the resin wings and gear elements. 
They added a little edge to the project. 

The ticket elements are a variety of pieces from all different Tim Holtz Ideaology tags, tickets and ephemera. I just rummage through and choose pieces that compliment the colour scheme.

And my project wouldn't be mine if it didn't have some 49&Market on it. Leaves & Butterflies are always a must.

Grab a cuppa and enjoy the process video too.

I hope this project inspires you to create something unique.

Until next time, Em xx

 

Salvaged Canvas with Emma

 Happy Sunday everyone!
Today I share with you a bright canvas created with mostly resins. I LOVE LOVE LOVE resins and so I had to create something fun with them. This canvas features 3 different Mould designs.

And it just so happens to match the awesome moodboard a little this month. Let's check it our here....

I shocked myself and used my Distress Oxide Inks....like inks..hahaha! I tend to use them more like watercolour or a tint. So it was nice to spray them and get a little messy.

Firstly I used a Finnabair stencil on the base of the canvas with a Ranger crackle paste. I then slowly layered all the moulds over the top of the stencil. I had these rusty pipeline moulds that I was desperate to create with and decided to add this amazing butterfly from the mechanical Insectica mould. Plus a heap of little cogs from different sets.

Once all the moulds were glued down and firmly in place, I primed all the elements with white gesso.

Once the gesso was dry then came the colour. This canvas has 4 Distress Oxide sprays on it. I started with Mustard Seed, dried a little then went in with Cracked Pistachio. I made sure these colours were dry before adding a couple of pops of pink.

I kept the butterfly separate at this stage (not glued to the rest just yet). The butter fly features Kitsch Flamingo and a little Speckled egg to keep the contrast from the background colours it will be on.

In among the moulds I added a couple of Finnabair Mechanical metal flowers. These also were sprayed with all the other elements.

 

Once everything was dry and stuck down including the butterfly, I started to apply a mix of different waxes to a lot of the moulds. I used a little Rose Gold, Indian Pink, Brushed Iron and plenty of Rich Copper as this is one of my faves.

Finally I flicked all over with Black & White inks and added a title. This is from the Tim Holtz quote chips collection.

I hope this canvas has inspired you a little and I look forward to seeing what you create with this striking moodboard.

Stay safe friends, Em xx

My Super Quick Canvas

Good morning to all our SC readers so glad you have come across to our blog for a peek, I hope your weekend is going well and that your Sunday is a relaxing one.

I am so excited to share today's blog post - I just love the fabulous Jane Davenport, she is so very clever and her drawings definitely inspire me to create.

Jane's new release of products included a JUMBO RUBON at first I was going to rub it straight to a wall in my Art Studio but where is the fun in that right......

So I pulled out a large canvas 20 x 32 inch canvas and sprayed lightly with some water I then painted a rough coat of black paint all over the canvas and edges leaving some white space.

Once the canvas was covered and dry I then painted around the edges randomly with Art Anthology Gemstones Dimensional Paint Blue Topaz, I love how this paint is thick and it has a glaze type finish. I also added touches of the Art Anthology Sorbet Dimensional paint Honolulu Blue around the edges which has a glitter finish.

I then painted some Liquitex Heavy Body Titanium White paint across the black layer using some water and a large brush.

Using 3D Gloss Gel and some gorgeous metallic wrapping paper in several designs I glued random torn pieces around the edge of the canvas.

Using Sienna Colour Blast Paste and a Dylusions stencil I placed it randomly around the edges of the canvas and set aside to dry.

Using a wet wipe and some Inka gold Marsala I randomly rubbed some colour around the edges of the canvas.

I then added another layer around the edges using Dina Wakley's Printed Media Tape

Using Bo Bunny Glitter Paste Turquoise ( I LOVE THIS STUFF) I added some glittery magic in random sections of the Canvas.

Using Super Heavy gesso and some Colour Blast Shimmer Dust Candy and some Ken Oliver Color Burst Cadmium Scarlet I made my own colour texture paste using a stencil, again I randomly placed it around the canvas and set aside to dry.

ONCE ALL THESE LAYERS ARE DRY - ITS TIME FOR THE JUMBO RUBON

Place the rub-on on the canvas exactly where you want it and start gently rubbing the surface bit by bit slowly pulling the top film away to reveal the rub-on transfer adhered to your canvas.

Yes, I added yet another layer, some text was needed, so I have used some Tim Holtz Tissue paper and the Soft Gel to adhere random sections to the Canvas.

More Bo Bunny Paste (I told you I love it), I painted around the outside edges of the rub-on.

I have used the Mod Spiral Stencil and some Liquitex Black Lava to add even more dimension and colour to the canvas, using a heat gun to dry off and develop the beautiful Black Glitter paste.

More dimension around the canvas with the Whipped spackle, I love working with this as it's  so easy to use through a stencil.

Almost complete just needed to add my Journaling.......

So easy with the amazing Tim Holtz idea-ology foam stamps and some black paint. I stamped on some marshmallow cardstock, set aside to dry, and then cut each word out and adhered them around the hair and head of the gorgeous ru-bon.

I just love how my canvas has turned out.

I'm definitely hanging it in my scrappy space...

I hope you enjoyed the process.

See you all next week, be sure to keep popping in for all the awesome
