Home Is Where The Heart Is

UPDATE: The winner of my recent blog candy is Lynn Stevens from Trash To Treasure Art. Lynn I will contact you and get your gifts out in the post very shortly.

I've decorated a small canvas for my DT creation for Creative Expressions using the fabulous Art Houses by Sam Poole.

I have sprayed my background with Dylusions sprays, blending with water and adding random stamping with white acrylic paint.

I stamped the house onto tissue paper and painted with the same sprays on the reverse. I added computer generated text "Home Is Where The Heart Is", blending fired brick Distress Ink around the edges.

I added the keys around the sides of my canvas, again adding touches of text with white acrylic paint.

I tore a heart from scrap paper adhered to my canvas and then covered the heart in tissue paper that I had mopped up any excess ink with, creating fabulous texture. I added touches of Treasure Silver on the raised areas to highlight the texture.

I added touches of silver Paint Dabber around the edges of my canvas to give a little more interest.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
