Seek Paradise

Hello hello hello! How are you all today. Shanna here excited to be back on the blog today! Today I am sharing my first encaustic art piece with you all.


Let's be honest my images didn't blend well and probably would have been better if I added them before I started the wax layers but I am still excited and happy with it. I really loved the piece before I started adding wax so more of these will be coming.

My inspiration came from the Our Mixed Media Moods challenge DeeDee and Jenn have for this month.

 

If your interested in seeing how I created this please check out the video.

Here is are some close ups.  Hope you enjoy.

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!
