Honestly, I was thinking of my son's grandma when I started. She loves everything old... antique, books, etc. Soooo... I grabbed Theresa Momber's, "Timeless Treasures" and started coloring!!
The paint was acrylics and I made sure I used her favorite colors... red and black. Now I DID stamp each item and color them with my Copic markers but afterwards I mounted them on the canvas using Crystal Lacquer just to make sure they would hold.
I have no idea what I was thinking when I scribbled on the acrylic... and no idea what I was doing when I painted the heart then decided to add the wire shaped heart over it. But... I flooded it with more Crystal Lacquer just to .... oh... I don't know... ummmm make it shine??? LOL My sentiment came from Melanie Muenchinger's set, "A Charmed Life".
Now I must say.... I don't always go about things in such a hap-hazard way, but for what it's worth... she LOVED it! LOL And seriously... I knew she would. She COULD have just been being nice. But... I will always maintain... there is just something about things you make on your own and give to someone else. They think I'm Andy Warhol. LOL LOL
Ok... I promise to have something worth looking at. Hee Hee But I will say... no matter what... I DO try and I DO risk it all by venturing into the unknown. P.S. Don't send anyone here... just pretend you accidentally opened my blog. Ha Ha
Have a great day and if you find canvas and are not sure what to do with it... I know a few illustrators who could make it worth the cost of postage. *smile*
