Gingersnap Creations - Paint Challenge


This is a canvas using a multitude of techniques with acrylic paint that I've learned from Claudine Hellmuth's class. The techniques include stamping with paint, photo tinting with paint, embossed and debossed paper highlighted with paint, paint with perfect pearls accents, image transfer with paint, faux batik using multi medium for stamping, and a patterned paper transfer with sticky back canvas. Whew! This was a fun piece to create, and I added some Paper Whimsy images, Dresden foil, 7 Gypsies gaffer tape around the edges, and stamped words to embellish my squares. This project fits well with the current Spicy Supply Challenge at Gingersnap Creations where the theme is paint. Stamp credits: Hero Arts, Making Memories, Purple Onion Designs, Close to my Heart
