Inspiration from our Design Team:

Hello everyone!
My today's project is inspired by Finnabair Art Recipe for March. Wonderful Liquid Acrylic Paints with the addition of gesso. All composition in shades of blue.

I like to add some natural elements to my projects, that's why there are dried sticks;) My project based on HDF frame on which I applied a fantastic new Finn mask from winter release.
You probably already using these beautiful new products! I couldn't resist. This time I used a cracking paste with new stencil. Then, with Heavy Body Gel I glued metal embellishments. You can find all the links below. For this sticks and a thick rope.

I added glass cabochons around the whole composition and covered it with Clear Gesso. Then I painted all elements with Liquid Acrylic Paints in shades of blue with delicate green accent. After drying, I whitened everything with White Gesso and splashed it. Next I added new Patina Blue matte wax. It gives amazing matt finish and has beautiful color. I emphasized the edges with black gesso. I really like this effect. .
And what ideas do you have for Art Recipe?
Hugs,
Kasia Salmanowicz

Hello, friends!

New Art Recipe inspired me to create a folder for coins. I took the usual folder and pasted it with Tissue Paper. For this, I used a Soft Gloss Gel.

Then I muffled the background a bit with the help of the White Gesso. When I put together the composition, I covered all the Mechanicals with Clear Gesso. To tint the composition, I used Liquid Acrylics, Texture Effect Paste and Waxes.

I used Art Pebbles and Metallique Coral Reef to create sparkling accents. Looking forward to seeing your creations!

I have some Artist trading cards for my project. I used some Alphabet cards and added some gesso. Then I used the Laurels stencil with some paper texture paste.

I used some deep turquoise liquid acrylic and some deep teal color bloom spray as my base color. Then I used a few paper clay pieces I created using some prima moulds.

I also used some of the new matte white wax to highlight the embellishments. I also used some coral reef paint in a few areas and made some splatters .
