Mixed Media Canvas

This 8" x 10" canvas was a Christmas present for a very special couple.  I asked their daughter for their favorite scriptures or at least ones that they really liked.  Romans 8:28 is an Our Daily Bread Designs stamp.  John 15:16 is computer generated.  


In the background I've used Wendy Vecchi's lovely leaves stencil and white paste, gesso, distress paints, stenciling with the leaves from Wendy's From the Garden stencil and Archival Ink, stamping with Archival Ink, and Viva Inka Gold.  The scriptures were die cut with Spellbinders die Labels Four.  The greenery was die cut with the Sizzix Tim Holtz die Garden Greens.  The flowers are die cut with the Sizzix Tim Holtz die Tattered Florals from music paper glued onto cardstock.  The butterflies are a punch.  Lots of painting, inking, stamping, and Inka Gold on all the cut outs.  Flower brads in the center of the flowers.  Viva Pearl Pen dots scattered about.

Amazing! And what a great choice of scriptures! To be reminded every day that we are CHOSEN - how uplifting. And the colors match the message.
