Inspiration from our team
I have made a

There are always

Hello dear friends!
I am incredibly glad to take part in this art recipe. And discover a new adventure for you!
I made a canvas with dried flowers. Have you wondered where and how to apply Clear Gesso? I decided to try to cover them with dry flowers. And my experiment was a success!
In the background I added Icing paste through a stencil. A sprinkled also some mini Art Stones, but then they disappeared in the shimmer of glitter)) And in the end I added a bit of wax. Mmm, how I love these final touches!
I hope you liked our recipe, and you will also try to do something new and interesting for yourself!

I'm so happy and excited that Art recipes are turning into challenges! When I was not yet part of this amazing Creative team I used to do "oooh's" and "aaaah's" each time I saw new Art Recipes published. I often went to the older Art Recipes for the inspiration. I love to take part in monthly Art Recipes and I'm sure this challenges will inspire you all so much! Can't wait to see your beautiful creations!
This month we are playing with clear gesso, mini art stones, metallique waxes and icing pastes and we are creating in Vintage style and color scheme. So I decided to go all Vintage.
I altered an old, empty tin left from my paints in tubes and I've hidden an altered Vintage handmirror inside. I used shades of light brown, gold and rose gold. For giving a bit extra interest to my tin I dressed it into new Finnabair Decorative tissue paper. I hope you'll like my project and be inspired by it!
Enjoy your day! Hugs, Aleksandra

I used Clear Gesso for my background .
When everything was dry, I added more texture with Antique Gold Icing Paste.
I also used Indian Pink Metallique Wax to highlight details.
To finish my project I just had to use my favorite Mini Art Stones mixed with White Heay Gesso.
