Butterfly Dreams Canvas by Steph

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with a butterfly canvas using handmade papers created with the Arnold Grummer Papermaking Kit.




Using a 5" x 7" canvas, spritz top 2/3 with several colors of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists.



Using hand made papers, die cut butterflies and their shadows from the assorted handmade papers.  Assemble the butterflies.


Use molding paste randomly through a brick stencil.  Allow to dry.  Ink the edges of the butterflies in assorted colors and place them about the canvas.


Add dew drops on the butterflies.  Add more dew drops for the butterfly tails.


Using a left over scrap of hand made paper, stamp the phrase in black ink.  Tear around the phrase and ink the edges before adding it amongst the butterflies.



Thanks for stopping by.

Steph
