Learn to laugh ... - Mixed media canvas for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel. I promise you this is the last one for this year :)

 I primed the canvas with white gesso. Next, I added randomly plaster and white crackle pastes. When dry, I colored the canvas with black gesso and black liquid acrylic paint. Finally, I added a design with the Ledger stencil. 

I primed all the chipboards with black gesso. I painted the Geo Panel #1with Sparkling Onyx Jewel paste. 

I painted the Gear Corners #2 and one of the Jumbo Cogs #2 with Silver Spoon metallic paint. When dry, I covered them with wax, then with black gesso. I allowed the gesso to dry, then remove it with a paper towel. For the chains and other cogs, I simply waxed them with Old Silver, Brushed Iron, or Old White. 

With a splatter stamp, I added some gilding glue which I covered with silver metallic flakes.

To finish, I added glitters, microbeads, and some Ice Crushed paste.
