Love for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

This week on the Memory Maze Blog I created a canvas for a friend who lost her dad last year and every time I saw this photo on Facebook I knew I had to do something with it

And it just so happens it was her birthday a couple of days ago so what better present that a lovely memory

Don't forget to check out the rest of the blog for inspiration and check out and see the new products that are always coming out

I started off with some impasto on the background with the Diamond Stencil

Then I used Colour Blast Colour Shimmer Cubes in Singin the Blues and Just Blue on the grooves of the diamonds

With the Vintage Corners I painted them with Colour Shimmer Cubes in Snow White just for a bit of shimmer

On the Hearts a Pair I used the Snow White and Fire Engine with a bit of the Snow White over the top

After it dried it gave it a crackle look

Words Fancy Awesome, Spectacular I also used the Fire Engine

After finishing with all the embellishing I used the Micro Beads with a bit of Helmar Super-Tac Glue mixed together

I used some paper flowers, a metal circle and a paper clay key hole

Here I used a paper clay heart with wings I thought it was perfect for this picture

Meant to be for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

Here's my latest creation for the Memory Maze blog
Make sure you check out the Blog and the Facebook page fore everything that's new and up and coming 

I love the Green Grunge stencils that Memory Maze make and they have so many different ones the one I used -Grunge Stencil 3 has the flowers, the circles and then a few bits of greenery 

I used texture paste on the background of the canvas which was the perfect size for the stencil

I used Lindy's Magical Shakers - Grab a Guy Gold, Black Forest Black, Magnolia Magenta Gold, and Autumn Maple Crimson over the background layering each colour until I was happy with the background I had

I used the Hexagon Grunge Stamp and the Circle Stamp randomly over the canvas including the edges

Here you can see chipboard flowers these are from the  Sweet & Sassy Chipboard set and I covered them with Orange Inka Gold for an extra pop I also rubbed the orange over the corners of the canvas and the top of the stencilled area
I also used a vintage frame under the photo

I used a couple of cogs from the Bike, Cogs, Clocks, Moustache and some from the 12 x 12 All there is is Cogs I love that they both have different cogs in them

I added some flowers to soften the canvas a little and some micro beads for extra texture
