Hey bloggers Rita Barakat here today! Today I am amking a
mixed media piece for a sweet new baby girl.
Here are the May Arts products I am going to work with!
First I am cutting off the wire...
Then using some Stampers Big Brush pens to color the flowers.
Right after I color each flower I mist it with a little water so it blends.
Set aside to dry!
I used Gelatos to color my project!
I used a little glue ...
A little twine..
I used Gel Medium to adhere the flowers and leaves.
And PITT pens to add lots of accents.
And there you have it!!! I hope you are emjoying the blog hop!
Lucky little girl - to get such a beautiful gift. Love how the flowers were colored. The elephant is so cute (love elephants).
Great project. thanks for sharing.
