MesmerEyes - Canvas Layout and Once Upon a Sketch Challenge

I am so enraptured with the Tattered Angels Spring Collections colours. These colours are WOW - they are bright and cheerful and oh-so-sunny. They are simply A M A Z I N G ! Can you see how bright they are against the brickwall and paver backdrop!






I teamed these with some recent Prima releases to create this vividly hot canvas showcasing my daughters natural beauty and mesmerizing gaze. I started by applying a thick gesso to the canvas through the Brick template from Crafters Workshop. Once the gesso had dried, adding the colour was fast and easy. I used Sun Sisters, Party Pink, Marmalade, Bahama Blue and Dragonfly Glimmer Mist for the background colour and to colour the Prima mulberry flowers, and Emerald Cove Glimmer Glaze on my lettering. Metals are from Prima, Tim Holtz and Bo Bunny, with a few miscellaneous peices from my stash.




I based my canvas layout on the current sketch over at Once Upon A Sketch, which I turned upside down. Why not give it a go yourself.
