Hi
there, this week I have an art panel to share as I just got my inky mitts on
one of the lovely stamp sets by Darcy Wilkinson for PaperArtsy which I
couldn’t resist and the colours I used were inspired by the new collection of
one of my favourite clothing lines which featured lovely shades of pink and
green.
Ingredients:
Ranger Archival Ink – Cactus Flower, Fern Green, Olive
PaperArtsy Fresco Finish Acrylic Paints – Blush, Orchid, Rose, Zucchini, Sage, Toad
Hall
Scrap
of Thick Card
Recipe:
I
applied the paint to the MDF panel this time with a brayer, layering the colours
on and starting with the lightest pink and green, following up with the medium
shades. It’s really just a go with the flow process as I know if I repeated it,
it wouldn’t turn out exactly the same but I quite like that as it makes your
creation unique.
The
next step is to make the circle pattern on the panel as I was aiming for a sort
of bokeh effect again. I cut a piece of thick card and die cut a couple of
circles from it to make a homemade stencil. I then used this to make a circular
pattern with the lightest pink and green paints.
I
then used the bubbles stencil with the darkest pink and green paints to add
more pattern to my panel, overlapping some of the large circles to add depth. I
also added a few more larger circles with the green shade.
I stamped
the flower on a scrap of deep pink paper from my Gelli print box using the
olive ink and stamped the leafy vine on a green scrap. I drew a stalk on the
green scrap and then fussy cut everything out. I stamped just the flower centre
on green and cut this out too.
To
assemble the panel, I stamped the text from the set on stamping card using the
Cactus Flower and Fern Green inks and trimmed this to a panel. I then glued all
the elements to my panel using some foam tape for the flower head, layering the
images for added dimension.
Have
a great weekend and see you next week.
