Here is my take on the mixed media challenge hosted by Kyra this week. In MIX53 Loving Layers, we are challenged to add layers.
I'll try to get all the layers in because there are many.
- Taped down a 4 x 5 1/4 inch watercolor paper to craft sheet.
- Viridi acylic paint wash all over and let it dry.
- Bubble wrap covered in acrylic.
- Wonky stencil painted over with acrylic paints.
- NK Studio Mish Mesh stamped in Rich Cocoa.
- Heavy medium gel over stencil included in stamp set.
- Paint smudging with finger on base and on paper doily.
- Stamp sentiment and paint over it.
- Glue down doily and sentiment onto card base.

This is stunning - to me it looks ancient and uber-contemporary all at once. Your color choices are fabulous! Thanks for the step by step of your layers - and for your inspiration Janelle!

Wow this is amazing. Thank you for your detailed description, I have a long way to go before this comes naturally LOL. I love your layout and the way the doily extends past the textured layer.
