Just Be You - Mixed media canvas for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel.

First I added an uneven layer of Plaster Paste. Next, I added some Paper paste and White Crackle paste. When everything was dry, I colored the background with the Burnt Sienna and Ink Black liquid acrylic paints.

While everything was drying, I painted the foliage #27, the Branches and Berries, and the Tea Leaves with the Dark Chocolate Impasto. I dry brushed them with the Linen Impasto, and finally, I added some White Gold and White Pearl waxes. I painted the Grid with black gesso, then with the Old Silver wax. And for the Mystic Frame #1, I painted with the Dark Chocolate Impasto, then I added a layer of clear Crackle paste. When dry, I added Sparkling Onyx Jewel paste. 

I colored the background with the Burnt Sienna and Ink Black liquid acrylic paints. I added several layers and dried between them until I was happy with the result. Next, I added a design with the Ledger stencil and the Burnt Sienna. 

I glued all the chipboards with 3D Matte gel and I added some flowers as well. 

To finish, I added some sequins and glitters.
