I have been playing with Gelatos lately and wanted to share one of my creations with you.
I started with an 8x8 flat canvas board. I sprayed it with water and picked out two Gelatos - turquoise and lime green. I scribbled randomly on the canvas.
I have to admit that this part is fun for me!!! Because the canvas board was wet, the colors started to run and blend. I used a paint brush and my mini mister to blend the colors until the board was covered.
Once the board was dry, I pulled out some ink and some stencils.
I used Dylusions After Midnight ink with the diamond stencil from the Beauty of Nature Kit. I masked off the rest of the canvas because I did not want to cover it with the dark ink.
I used the Mini Love Post Stencil from the Capture the Moment Kit with the turquoise gelatos to make the heart.
I used a spray sealer once the ink dried.
I cut out this phrase with my Silhouette Cameo and white vinyl.
I transferred the vinyl onto the canvas. I almost gave up a few times during this project, but I remembered what fellow DT Member Sandee said - just keep layering!!! I am very happy with the end result!!!
I hope you choose to Live a Colorful Life!!!
