A Little Prima Canvas

I LOVE BALLERINAS, almost as much as I LOVE PRIMA FLOWERS!!!  Funny thing is I was never a ballerina, but you can bet this girl has plenty of PRIMA FLOWERS!!!  The images of beautiful ballerina poses are a great compliment to Prima flowers!

Today I have a free standing canvas for you!




Supplies:
Prima Art Alchemy Acrylic Paint:
  Metallique Soft Satin
  Sparks Dragon Eye

Prima Flowers
Altered Pages Collage - 1793 Vintage Ballerinas 
Gel Mediuum
Canvas
Black Gesso
Chipboard Swirls
Tacky Glue

Wet around the edges of the image you would like to use and gently rip around the edges.

Paint Canvas with Black Gesso, let dry. 

Apply gel medium to the canvas, spritz the image with water and lay flat on the wet gel medium.  Smooth the image.  Apply a layer of gel medium over the image. Let dry.

Paint the chipboard swirls front and back with the Prima Art Alchemy Acrylic Paint: Sparks Dragon Eye.  Let dry.

Dap a bit of Prima Art Alchemy Acrylic Paint: Sparks Dragon Eye on the Prima Flower.

Dab Prima Art Alchemy Acrylic Paint: Metallique Soft Satin around the ballerina and on the canvas. Dry!

With Tacky Glue attach the chipboard swirls and flower.... who said you have to stay on the canvas?

What ballerina wouldn't want to display this sparkly gold and pink canvas on their mantle?

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
