Very Last Colour Challenge...

Hello, thanks for stopping by. Today marks the start of the 3rd week of the very final Colour Challenge over on Chocolate Baroque's Challenge Blog. You still have time to enter so why don't you hop across and have a go because as always there is a chance of a prize.


My canvas using the challenge colours, has been created with the Patchwork Butterfly set that was recently featured on Hochanda. You may have caught a glimpse of my canvas in the background if you watched the show.

To start with I painted the entire background with a green acrylic paint, then once dry I coated the surface with cheap PVA glue. Just as the glue is starting to dry paint on some white Gesso and leave to dry. The cracks will start to appear as the PVA and Gesso dry.
The large butterfly has been stamped onto acetate. I coloured the reverse side with alcohol markers, crystal lacquer and glitter.
The three smaller butterflies came from the butterfly stencil that Chocolate Baroque recently launched on Hochanda and I applied molding paste through the stencil that I had mixed with acrylic paint. Before it dried I sprinkled with Glamour Dust to add an extra sparkle.
The flourish has been stamped with various acrylic paints.


Thanks for looking and don't forget to give the very last challenge a go.
