Limited Edition - Mixed media tag for Lindy's Gang DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Lindy's Gang blog with a new tag inspired by the August challenge. 

Color Guidelines: Dark Lilac - Golden Yellow - Light Aqua Challenge Ingredient: Gears

I glued some pieces of wood on the background and recovered them with paper paste and clear crackle paste. When the pastes were dry, I colored the background with Screaming Banshee Black and Jana's Jade.

I primed the resin gears and the face with clear gesso and colored them with Jana's Jade and Lara's Wild Malve Magicals. 

I colored the Face with Bayou Boogie Gold,  Jana's Jade, and Lara's Wild Malve. I glued the gears and the face with 3D matte gel. 

I also added a few flowers that I colored in the middle with Lara's Wild Malve to add some deep. I die cut a few leaves in a watercolor paper which I colored with Jana's Jade Magical. 

To finish, I highlighted the details with white gold wax. I

Rochelle's Folie - Mixed media panel for Mixed Media Place

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Mixed Media Place blog where I've been inviting as a guest designer. I worked with a photomontage I made a while ago inspired by Almayer's Folie from Magritte.

Here is the beautiful mood board for your inspiration 

I began my project by gluing a piece of the Solar paper tissue with Soft Matte Gel. When dry, I covered it with clear gesso. I mixed some Frozen Lake mica powder with 3D Gloss gel to make a paste. I used this paste along with the Golden Dust Jewel paste and a stencil to add a design. 

When everything was dry, I colored the background with different liquid acrylic paints to match the colors of the photo. I mixed Prussian Blue, Ultramarine, and Violet to obtain the right shade of blue. For the sun part, I worked with True Yellow, Tiger Orange, and a hint of Carmine. 

Before gluing all the embellishments, I primed the resin elements with Black gesso and the metallic elements with clear gesso. To color the elements, I used waxes: the pipes with Charcoal Black wax, the frame with White Gold, and the flowers with Old Denim and Peacock.

Next, I applied Vintage Gold over everything but I was careful to give the impression of the light coming from the yellow part of the panel. 

To finish, I added glass glitter and glitter.
