 With this months mood board being beautiful pastel blues i thought creating a sweet fairy would be super fun.  I started out by using a mixture of Lindy;s sprays, colour blast sprays and water and allowing it to drip and blend on the canvas. I also used Lindy's shaker. I sprinkled some onto my messy mat and added water, i then sprayed the canvas and used a paint brush to add the shaker. Apparently there was some glitter on my craft table from another project, so a few flakes made it to the canvas. Not to worry though as i used a lot of glitter later in the canvas. I kept adding more spray to the edges of the canvas to frame the centre, lighter section.  I then flipped the canvas as i liked the look of the drips going upwards. Not that it really mattered as i ended up covering the middle with Texture paste. I used texture paste through a stencil around the edge of the canvas.  I used plasters tape to cover the middle of the canvas then used my pallet knife to smear texture paste through it. One i pull the tape away it leaves behind tiny little squares. I then sprayed it with Lindy's spray. I then rubbed the sides of the canvas with Lumire Halo-gold acrylic paint. (Product list at the end of the blog)  I forgot to take progress shots here sorry. I used a Tim Holtz frame that i covered with white gesso and then sprayed with lindy's sprays and then rubbed Finnabair wax over the top. I did the same with the hip board fairy and small chip board vines. I also sprayed some of the flowers with Lindy's sprays. I used small light blue beads under the frame and then the fairy to give them some height. I also filled the middle of the frame with clear craft glued and sprinkled glitter all over it. I also dry brushed the fairy with white gesso, however i wish i had made her a little more white as she almost gets lost with the bakground. Opps, maybe another day.
I also used some old white curtain cord and a mitforms casting plaque. I dry brushed the mitforms with white gesso and sprayed it with Lindys spray.
