Life doesn't have to be Perfect to be Wonderful

Hi!

I made this canvas with a mixed media background that I put aside for a while not knowing what to do with it after I did the background. Then I came across it last week and I finished it with this creation.

I used a mixed media stencil and applied sand texture paste. After heat drying I used Prima WaterColour to create the background colour. Then I stamped a honeycomb stamp around it.

On a piece of white cardstock I used the same Prima Watercolours as the background and stamped the butterfly images from Stampendous and matching dies to cut them out. And stamped the sentiment and hand-cut matted on black cardstock

I used wired stamens in my stash to create the antennae and added some glitter glue on the wings. Flower from Prima Marketing with some plastic ferns and clay embellishment.

Thank you for visiting :-)

I would like to enter my canvas into -
