Mixed Media Canvas by Jenn Engle

Hey everyone! I have a 4x4 canvas to share with you today. I used this Banksy stamp and made it into a really cool 3 dimensional piece for my canvas. Be sure to check out the video to see exactly how I made this project.

Stamp Used:

Banksy Child Fishing in Paper Boat

Check out the process video to see exactly how I made this canvas!
(All supplies listed & linked at the bottom of this post)

This is a very photo heavy post because I wanted you to get the best idea of how this looks in real life. There are so many different elements to it that look different when the light hits in different ways!

In the photo above and below, you can see my girl's fishing line is actually a thin wire that's 3-D!

 The brown color is instant coffee. I love using instant coffee because it gives this perfect vintage brown color that I have not been able to replicate elsewhere. Plus it smells super good!

 

Thanks for looking!

Wonder?

How did you enjoy last week? I know I did. 

I played a little further creating something else to go along with my box. 

What do you think? Isn't this cute stamp just adorable?

I used some clear detail embossing powder to to stamp the largest moon in the stamp Moon Phases - 19543. The embossing powder will resist the spray. 

I really enjoyed using two different dimensional paints from Art Anthology with the Wildflower Silhouette - 19556. I just used a paintbrush to add it to the stamp.  Then I used the spray to add color for the sky. I used the stamp Wonderland - 19580 to give a little title to this project. 

The Girl in Princess Costume - 19536 was stamped on some white cardstock and cut out. 

I used black embossing powder on embossable acetate to stamp the Dragonfly Wings - 11042. Then painted the wings with alcohol ink and cut them out.  I created dimension using cardboard and pop dots. I also added some Prima Glass Beads to act as flowers adhered using Glossy Accents. 

I even have a quick video on how I created this lovely little project. 

So check it out and let me know what you think!

Dragonfly Art Journal Page

Hello and welcome everyone to a new day of inspiration here. I made it into a video YAY. So check that out below!

I played in my art journal. YES it was fun too! I got to play with some new sprays, and some metals, and a new stencil. I am crazy excited and loved how this page turned out. 

Here you can see the Dragonfly Wings - 11042 were stamped and cut out. 

You can see all the stamping I did here using Staz-On Ink and Prima Chalk Inks. All the stamps are listed below. I used a a bit to build up a background!

I used glass beads, in the 3d gloss gel with a stencil. 

The tag was a fun add too but I wasn't sure what to write on it or stamp on it so I colored it in with some Bloom Sprays.

The stamps I used are the following:

Dictionary Page - 19015

Dragonfly Wings - 11042

Tag - 19079

Writing Circles Background - 19567

Three Staples - 19576

Staple X - 19577

Double Coffee Rings - 19568

Six Staples - 19578

Wings Are Ready

Hello everyone. Shanna here and I am beyond excited to be a part of the design team and here sharing my first post with you as a design team member. 

Now on to the fun parts right!!!

I had so much fun picking out stamps and your head just pops with so many ideas. The thing I love most about the stamps is that you can color them or leave them plain stamped images. I love doing that as it makes the stamps pop off the project.

So I decided to kick it off with an art journal creation.

First I had some Tim Holtz tissue wrap that I added to my pages with some mate gel medium. After that I gave the pages a white wash with gesso.  Then I added some Dina Wakely Acrylic paint in the color turquoise and magenta. Spraying each color with some water to create paint drips. 

Then I used the stamp Wildflower Silhouette - 19556 (Plate 1451) with a Distress Marker Crushed Olive and stamped it twice at the bottom of the page.

Then I stamped the sentiment Your Time As a Caterpillar -19585 (Plate 1452) using StazOn Ink Jet Black.

Then I thought the Girl with Wings - 19005 (Plate 893) would look perfect for this spread. So I stamped her with the StazOn Ink and fussy cut her out. Although I decided to go ahead and pop her wings up for dimension. 

Then I couldn't help but add some glass bead gel for a little more texture. 

Then I wanted to add some brown and went for my Twinkling H20's, using the colors Cedarwood and Autumn Butternut. 

I tried hard to stick to the January challenge them the mood board is just amazing but I love pink and had to splash some in there.
