I used coloured pencils to colour. I played with mixed mediums to create the undersea background. I placed gesso on a chipboard then used texture paste to create the coral and rocks. Then I painted the colours on using acrylic paints. I placed beads and other embellishments to look pretty treasures under the sea. I hand made the ribbon wire roses.

Im back yeahhhh!

 I thought I had better re start my blog. As I haven't posted any new work for ages. I have alot to share with you all.
I am now a consultant for Kazsass. We have moved out to the country. West Brisbane. 3 hrs away from the city.
I have done some commission work for Australia simply cards and Easy Steps of card making. I did that for a year which kept me busy with work and kids and all that lovely life that comes our way.
So I thought I had better show everyone some of my work that I have done in the recent year that I have been away. Then I will start showing you all the great things that can been done with the great Kazsass products.

So here is my lovely bird houses I did awhile back.
I have handmade flowers using the Tim Holtz Tattered flowers die and grunge paper with silk fabric. I also made my own flower soft colour using Tim Holtz stain and flower soft polar white.
If you have any questions regarding techniques, leave a message .
