Off the page - nature in love
This is an off the page project that I finally managed to finish. I love this project and I spent ages, just getting the edges of the revered canvas to look like wood. I started with gesso and put it all over the back of the canvas edges. I then painted it, and then started the changing of mind, colour and products used. Everything from paint, to sprays, to inks, to stains, well you get the picture. I inked all the edges as well. I added metal Tim Holtz corners to the project. I added the picture in at this stage, it was cut fom the inside of a calendar. I then added chipboard flourish painted brown, up the left handside and then some glitter tule stapled amongst it. Then added a Prima marketing vine, prima birds nest and a couple of little birds. I added extra kaiser flowers and then some black and green leaves. I still wasn't happy so i added the top chipboard flourish and some flowers in the top right hand corners.
