Hello bloggers!
Charlene here! Thank you for joining me today! My husband and I recently had a fantastic
vacation in Mexico with our dear friends. While there we went on our first
camel ride along the beach, what a cool experience!
To create the Mexico word I started playing with Prima ArtAlchemy
Acrylic Paint Sparks. They are so easy to use. Simply brush it on and you have
instant shimmer! I did the word Mexico with Magical Pond and the top of the
palm trees with Fairy Wings. Then I added a bit of Walnut Distress ink on the
top of it. I really like how it added some depth to the chipboard piece.
To create the Small Pansy Arrow Border and the Daisy Frame I
started by painting the flower with white acrylic paint. You could also use
Gesso.
Then I added Barn Door Distress Ink. I then added Magical Pond
Sparks paint to the swirls.
Once it dried I found I didn't really like the colour of it so I
then added some Distress Glitter with Glue n' Seal over the whole chipboard
piece. I love how it changed the colours and added some shimmer.
