I started with a 16x20 flat canvas panel. I cut 2 sheets of 12 x 12 Stampin' Up! First Edition Designer Series scrapbook paper into various sizes. I used gel medium to glue down all the pieces. I had to use some scrap paper to fill in some gaps. I watered down some plain white gesso and gave the entire canvas a good white washing. I then printed out all the words to the scripture I wanted to use and cut out some scrapbook paper into heart shapes. Before gluing down all the elements, I used stencils and modeling paste to add texture. After it was dry,  I used various Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays to color the entire canvas. And I also used a variety of rubber stamps on the canvas. I inked the edges of the hearts as well as the words for the scripture. Then I glued down using the gel medium. Here are a few photos captured in the process of making this project. Cocklebells Coral Azure Sea Asters Glory of ...

Lindy's Stamp Gang February Color Challenge I had a general idea of what I wanted the piece to look like. But I laid some of the elements down and took photos for reference.

My inspiration:    Luvleescrappin on YouTube - Mixed Media Canvas Collage First, I started with an 8" x 10" blank canvas. I had a general idea of what I wanted the piece to look like. But I laid some of the elements down and took photos for reference. I used a piece of pattern tissue from an old pattern and laid down with Mod Podge Matte. I crinkled the paper up in areas as I did not want it to lay perfectly flat. I wanted to have some texture for interest. I used my heat tool to dry the Mod Podge. And then started laying down some embellishments. I used different colors and mixed materials. I had paper embellishments, metal, stone beads as well as plastic buttons. I knew that I would cover the entire piece with a couple of good coats of gesso. I will list as many of the embellishments I used, but some of them were just "stuff" I found. Some were beads from broken costume jewelry, I have a jumbo paper clip somewhere in there. Fai...
