Hello friends
Hope you are all good!
As its Valentines day this week I thought
I would share a vintage inspired make with you...
I started with a scrap piece of wood, to which I added lots of layers of gesso and texture crackle paste, I then coloured it using distress paints.
Next I used some of the new collage floral papers (yep... I'm using colour!) onto one of the new large cabinet card frames using collage medium, I also layered the background
using some of the new wallpaper from Idea-ology.
Then I selected the photo from the found relatives pack and added layers,
stitching and some Idea-ology embellishments.
To finish I added a couple of butterflies and a word chip
and added a rusty wire to the wood to make a hanging.
As always please feel free to leave a comment, I appreciate each and every one
Wishing you a very Happy Valentines!
I will be back soon with more of my samples from the Creativation show!
best Wishes
Kaz

this is beautiful Kaz! I have got to try this type of coloring...just makes the flowers look so very vintage!!
ReplyDeleteJust love this Kaz! I was really drawn to the texture on the wood, it looks amazing, and then my thoughts turned to those beautiful flowers-so glad to read they are from the collage papers since I prob could never color my own so beautifully. Thanks for sharing this super valentine!
ReplyDeleteI love it... those found relatives are so amazing aren't they? Can't wait to get the new ones ! I'm loving how you used the wall paper too. My wishlist is so long for Tim's new product :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful - such gorgeous colours and all those wonderful details. I can't wait to get some of this gorgeous paper!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely piece! TFS Kaz!
ReplyDeleteWonderful hanging Kaz and I just love all those delicious layers x The papers look amazing, reminding me of some of the wallpaper I had in my room as a kid xx
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. I love the vintage feel and the crackle in the background. The papers are gorgeous and I love the addition of the ruler . Tracy x

Can you use the crackle on burlap? I made a vintage burlap picture with my husband's great grandmother and it is missing something
ReplyDeleteColor and vintage goodness...beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTo me you are the 'Vintage Queen' but it is also lovely to see you use colour - and you still manage that vintage vibe - a gorgeous make Kaz! Anne xxx
ReplyDeleteLovely. I love the vintage effect. I’m not sure about using crackle stuff, I’ve got some, just not sure what to do with it.
ReplyDeleteOoh, just love this project with all the different elements and layers!
