hello everyone

welcome to my blog , this is my first craft topic
fortunately is't about magic 💫 I hope my blog be a magical and inspire you with something 😄

magical mixed media canvas

It can be a decor or magical frame for a small photo

here is some tips about how I did it

first I imagined how my layout would be ,I placed the gate on my canvas and put the leaves & grape above so it looks like this 👇 then the ideas brighten in my mind to make it a magical thing by adding fairies glitter & all the stuff you will see I brought everything may be use it in front of me

the brand products that I used

gate chipboard from sacrafters
prima marketing flowers ,watercolor & turquoise spray
kaisercraft fairy dust paper collection
wood piece from live&love craft
Martha stewart glitter (white).
timholtz stencil
bubble stencil
brick wall stencil

the other products are from a local craftstore

sprays
some leaves &leaves trim
some small flowers
pearls & pearl trim
cheesecloth

first step

I colored everything white & cut the flowers & fairies from the paper

second step

I used 3 different stencil on the canvas

tim holtz stencil - brick wall stencil - bubble stencil

third step

start coloring my background with prima watercolor

green - purple & turquoise spray , then splashed the colors & add Martha stewart white glitter on the circles

fourth step

: I colored the leaves green & start gluing them on the top with sprays ,cheesecloth , paper flowers ,pima flowers , small flowers .....a lot of flowers here 😆

fifth step

: I used bubble stencil on grape wood piece & the glitter as well

sixth step

for the gate I cut a chipboard pieces & cover it by the paper from the collection & used stencil on it , add flower & butterflies from the collection then glued the gate

I made it dimensional by adding another piece of chipboard too

as you see on the gate there is cheesecloth ,pearls,& butterflies . for the fairy stick I used a small paint brush twisted around it leaves trim , some cheesecloth & small flowers

seventh step

: in this part I cut the piece of wood two parts on the corner of the photo place , putting beneath it cheesecloth twisting it with leaves trim and adding some flowers , pearls over
