Img 163 Full of Hearts

So excited to be using Img #163 from Sherri on my very FIRST post as DT member. I just love this image-is so versatile for many occasions. I used Copics, my colors of choice, mounted her on foam dots so that I could run some Baker's Twine around her to tie a bow. Also, I added some dimensional insects down the side. On the inside, I finished it off with some design paper and a sentiment from my stash.

Thank you all again for inviting me to join this terrific group! Can't wait 'til I post the next project!

After coloring her up I fussy cut her out and decided to make a canvas project with her

I started off with a 9 by 7 inch white canvas board I got from the dollar store

I added some texture to it by stenciling all over using modeling paste and letting it set to dry.

I then decided to use my spray inks to color the canvas, I used a lilac, aqua and wanted some green but only had a light green so I made my own by using an ink refill and some alcohol in a spritzer

works wonders. so did the green this is how the canvas background turned out.

I then cut out a frame for my image out of watercolor paper, I added some ground espresso distress ink to it, and then watered it down for the color to go all over, then did it again to get full coverage.

I decided It didn't look old or like metal so I added some taupe frantage to it and then some gold embossing powder in spots and then heat set and then went over it a bit with the ground espresso, this is the frame and how it turned out

I placed it on the canvas

and then added some other stuff to the canvas to see how it would look

I was liking the layout but the chain was silver and so was a couple of the gears, so I used some gold embossing powder on them and heat set to turn them gold

I then let it set a while as gold elements on the canvas and decided I wanted a bit more of the pink so I took everything off the canvas again and added some pink spray to it, just a touch in the center area

I then put all back on the canvas and was pleased with the effect with the exception of the white areas around the image, so I took my Cool Grey 1 marker and went over those areas and added some more color to the glass of the glasses as well. I then used some Gel medium to attach all to the canvas

This is the final result of the canvas
