Maid of Honour for Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenges


Hey Everyone

I love these heart canvases and this photo is so beautiful of my daughter and her Maid of Honour 
The photographer captured a glow in their faces it's just gorgeous
So I started off by using the Rosy Stencil over the whole background 

Then I painted the canvas with the Art Alchemy Red Wine
I used the Art Alchemy Metallique Wax in Old Silver with my finger rubbing it lightly over the top which looked great 

But then I decided to use the Prima Midnight Garden products and they have a copper colour foil on a lot of the pieces so I went over the canvas with the Rich Copper wax but I'd put too much so I brushed it again with a bit of the Red Wine and ended up with this colour 

I added the bow then arranged the chipboard stickers and some of the Journal Cards after I stamped randomly with the Paint Chips Clear Stamp


 Before I added the photo I added some muslin over the cardboard that I used to raise the photo up

 I added the flowers they matched perfectly with the ones that the girls had in their hair and bouquets

Enjoy the Journey for Memory Maze


Hey Everyone my turn on the Memory Maze blog today 
Make sure you check out the Memory Maze Store and check out what's new this week and see the blog for what the team have been up too
We also have an Instagram account so make sure if your in Insta you go add us memorymazelaser

and I'm slowly working my way through my daughter's wedding photos 
There's no hurry as they don't want an album so I'm doing what I want with the photos that I love the most



The girls did their own hair and make up which turned out beautiful




This is what the Heart with Wire Insert looks like except with all the hexagons in it 



I sat and glued all the hexagons onto a piece of cardstock with the outer edge but not the full frame 


Once everything was glued down and dry I added Colour Blast Heavy White Gesso over the whole thing - I did a couple of coats to make sure I got into all the grooves 


Then as you can see above I used the Colour Blast Colour Spray LOVE painting into the grooves as steadily as possible but as you can see that didn't quite happen I went over the edges a bit but it added to it I think


Then I used some Journaling Cards from the Prima range Midnight Garden (it's so pretty) and a couple of flowers from the Ephemera pack


On the Words Fancy - Smile and the Enjoy the Moment I rubbed some Finnabair Metallique Wax in the Brushed Iron to add a contrast colour



Then on the Prima Junk Yard Findings Globe I painted the back with some Finnabair Mettalique Acrylic Paint in Red Wine which suited the flowers in her hair and is a very similar colour to the Bridesmaids skirts 
Then I randomly placed different sized white flowers around the project
