Mixed Media card for C4E recipe challenge


Hello :)
What a lovely weekend it has been here in somerset! I hope you got to enjoy some sunshine too!
I have my DT card to share today, It's a little late this week I got caught up with preperations for the monthly C4E crop yesterday.
The challenge details and all the gorgeous DT inspiration can be found HERE.
The challenge this week was to use die cuts or die cutting on your project.
I came across THIS fantastic mixed media video and had to have a go!
I've used the techniques before for various projects but it was the Clear Gesso I have never tried before, it is fabulous! I love how quick it dries and how it dries clear so you can see as much or as little of the pattern as you like. If you haven't tried Clear Gesso I really recommend it! I got mine from the Range, Windsor and Newton 225ml for £8.99.



Materials used :
die cut chipboard Trellis (Tim Holtz edge die)
Flower ( Petaloo)
Pattern Paper (My Minds Eye)
A6 card base
Dylusions ink sprays ( Crushed Grape and Bubblegum Pink)
White and Clear Gesso
Perfect Pearls Mists (Inference Red and Violet)
Die cut Feathers (Spellbinders)
Lace (Stash)
Stamp (Indigo Blu Script)
Stazon Black ink pad
Wood veneer word (Trimcraft)
Stencil ( Dylusions diamond border)
Modelling paste
Viva Maya Gold (Magenta and lilac)

A few detail photos, there is lots of lovely colour and texture.
It was a surprisingly quick card to make!





Don't forget to join us for this weeks challenge have a great day!
Michele :)
