Art House Co-op Coolness

Hi everyone! This is my project for the Art House Co-op 4x6 Exchange. Thank you Misty for the heads up on this awesome concept: a worldwide community art swap! How cool is that? It needs to be mailed and therefore has to lay flat but I couldn't let it go without putting some sort of texture on it L:)

I took a 4X6 piece of canvas paper, covered it in book and tissue paper, put down random strips of masking tape and then gessoed over everything. Next I covered the whole page in glimmer mist, stamps and then dripped some liquid acrylic around. Lastly I heat embossed the quote stamp on vellum used gel medium to adhere the vellum. Just a bit of bubble wrap, ink stamping, and gesso and I was done.




Cheers! and I hope everyone is having great week......! Thanks for visiting and leaving your comments!

  4. I'm participating too- at some point I'll have to walk mine over- I'm pretty sure they don't want that but I'm not wasting a stamp on a card that will literally go 5 blocks northwest from where I live. :) I like the texture the tape gives the paint- that's really cool. Maybe I'll end up with yours! That would be FREAKY! :)
