Inspire 20

Mona Pendleton | Wednesday, March 14, 2018 @ 9:25 AM |

Hi! Today I'm sharing a mixed media canvas featuring a variety of fun techniques including stamping, stenciling and dripped candle wax which was a first for me. 
Up close, you can see the dripped wax in various places such as on the butterfly wings and randomly on the metallic embellishments. I was inspired to give the dripped candle wax by the Stamps and Stencils challenge: wax lyrical:
I randomly stamped and heat embossed a doily image using versamark and gold embossing powder:
I randomly added texture using a stencil along with sand texture paste:
For color inspiration, I'm joining along with the Mixed Media Place February challenge:
I'm also linking my canvas to the Paint Party Friday site where they are celebrating their 7th birthday:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
