Hello creative friends and welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing a steampunk vibe project for Dusty Attic.
They have released anew range of Steampunk and Industrial chipboard pieces i so wanted to play with. So i designed this 8x8 on a flat board Canvas.
Now i have to explain, i do not consider myself a mixed media artist, i like to dabble in it. Sometimes, i surprise myself and come up with a great project.
This for me, was one of those projects. I used papers from Sea World from Stamperia for my background.
I also used a few of their acrylics to come up with the colors i have. This came about rather quickly as the paints just happen to be perfect. I added in some Turquoise fluid acrylic and burnt sienna.
The burnt sienna allowed me to create the darker shadows you see under some of the pieces. I also added in some brads from my stash where i felt they needed to be to add that special detail
i love how it turned out, even the title, which i cut out from one of the papers looks metal but its paper. I sanded the edges, then added some mediums and finally gold wax.
Here is the finished flat board canvas, I love how it turned out!!
why not give these new steam punk pieces a try, they are fabulous to play with.
