Random arts July Mood Board challenge post

July Mood Board

Challenge post.



This is my take on the July mood board Challenge. 
I absolutely adore the vintage colour's and feel of the mood board. 



July Mood Board





I started by gluing down wooden pegs and old broken jewellery and using Little birdie Embossing Texture Paste. I LOVE this paste, watching it dry under a heat gun is so satisfying. Watching it bubble up is amazing fun. The end result is kind of spongy and soft.
I then painted the whole thing with white gesso.


I then used a little bit of dylusions paint (tangerine dream) with white gesso to get this pretty cream colour.


I then smudged some white gesso over the top to blend in the cream to a more vintage look. I used
 art alchemy artist wax colours (Firebird and White gold) over the whole thing. I started with a soft brush, working the White gold into the gaps of the pegs, jewellery and texture paste. I used my finger tip to rub in the firebird in spots here and there to give it an aged look. I also used lindy's starburst sprays (glory of the seas gold). This gave it an amazing shimmer and the amazing speckles you see in the work.


I took inspiration from the black lace in the mood board and just had to use it in my artwork. I also had this amazing rose gold beaded lace to edge the black.


I then added Little birdie flowers and white pearl beads. Oh my goodness i love these flowers, so pretty.
