Dream- Lindy's Stamp Gang & Mixed Media Place challenge entry

Good morning everyone, where has the time gone by, hard to believe that we are already in September, feels like yestarday that we were in June. With the close arrival of fall comes beautiful orangy green colors. In Canada we are quite lucky to have the 4 seasons and fall is particularly nice here. Once again, my craftiness was inspired by some blog challenges.  

For the first entry, I was inspired by the colors of the Lindy's Stamp Gang challenge. Unfortunatly, I did not have the exact colors in my stash, but I did have slightly brighter hues of the orange and green, so I opted for thoses 2 colors of the combo as my main colors.

  I used my magical powders with watercolor paper (technique shown by one of the DT members Caroline recently). I splattered some magicals on my paper and then sprayed water and let the magic begin. Then I stamped my flowers and butterfly with Archival black ink over the colored sections:  

  I also wanted to add some texture to my blackboard, so I mixed my darkest green (Ponderosas Pine Olive) with modeling paste and applied that thru a stencil to create the small hearts on my blackboard.   Link to the September challenge: HERE  

 

The Magical colors I used can be found online in the store using the following links:

I was inspired mainly by the quotation. I love my finnabair buttefly stamp because it has this beautiful dreams quote inside:

 

 

I used my beautiful green metallic paint to cover the base of my project and added the stunning gold microbeads to the center of my stamped flowers with Gel medium. The Alchamy paints have become some of my favorites to use, I just love the shimmer they have.

 

  Other ornaments used are  my badges from Cuts2Luv, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and stamped leaves by KesiArt using the Ombre inks.   Hope you enjoyed my project, It sure brightens my crafty space. Wishing you a great week.
