Hi all! I'm so excited to share with you today a small canvas design I made using goodies from the September Flying Unicorn kits and some of my favorite Shimmerz Paints Products. There were so many beautiful metal embellishments in this kit I wanted to use them on a mixed media style canvas. Most of what is on this canvas is from the September kits from Flying Unicorn (I think the only thing from my stash is a couple of adhesive gems and a couple small Dusty Attic chipboard pieces and some Shimmerz Paintz....I will list them below). As always, I find it easier to show than to tell, so here is a little video tutorial I made up for this piece,...enjoy!
As I said, most of the products I used on this canvas are from the Flying Unicorn kits, but here are the Shimmerz Products used on this canvas....
~ Sunset Strip Vibez
~ Before the Dawn Vibez
~Truffle Spritz
~ Jeni B Bleu Vibez (in Kit)
~ Apple Cider Blingz
~ Artechoked Texturez (in Kit)
~ Golden Wheat Shimmerz
NOTE: If you would like to order the Shimmerz products used on this canvas you can order them directly from the Shimmerz online STORE. And remember if you would like to get a FREE/Bonus Shimmerz product be sure to mention my name "Gabrielle' in the 'INSTRUCTIONS TO MERCHANT' part at the end of your order and Stacey will send you a bonus Shimmerz product in the color of your choice :)
Here are a few of close ups of the canvas that you can view at your leasure....
I just love that metal branch!
For the centerpiece design I took one of the label chipboard pieces in the Small Art kit and added some bronze dimensional paint to give it a metalic look.
Hope you enjoyed my project! This one came together quick and easy! I've got another really fun canvas/and video tutorial coming up in a few days (11th) done with more goodies from this kit! Hope you'll be able to come by and check it out! Thanks so much for stopping by today!
