Life's a Beach-Altered Mixed Media Canvas with Ulrika

Life's A Beach by Ulrika Wandler

Hi, Ulrika here to show you a canvas I made with a bunch of fantastic products from BoBunny and Pentart!

I started with priming my canvas with gesso. After that I applied Bead Paste to make the background.

I also used a stencil together with gesso to make the circles (or bubbles?!).

After that I used Gel Paste to glue some 3D Powder and 3D Balls to start making the sand on the bottom of the ocean. I also glued on some sisal threads and shells. The Gold Confetti Paste is perfect to make the "sand" and the shells glitter.

I applied acrylic paint and wax paste all around the edges.

Serendipity and NEW Mixed Media Goodies by Pentart with Solange

Hello everyone! It's Solange Marques here and today I'll share with you a Fine Art project!

I've made a canvas using the wonderful Serendipity collection and the newest selection of Pentart products.

I've started gluing the photo on the canvas and expanding it with acrylic paints. I've used the new Pentart Stencil Paste on the new BoBunny Stencil that is a background of bricks.

I've added Pentart Silver Wax Paste, Antique Paste and the new BoBunny clear stamps.  I've purposely made the satamps a little "smeary" to lend to the overall look of the canvas.

Finally I've added Serendipity Noteworthy, more Pentart Stencil Paste on the new flourish thick stencil and new Pentart metallic Glamour paint.

You can see I've taken some artist liberties with placing touches of paints here and there to add additional interest.

Petal Lane and Pentart Antique Paste with Elena O.

Hello BoBunny friends, it's Elena here today.

I've got to share with you a fun canvas I made using the beautiful Petal Lane collection and many fun Pentart mixed media products.

It's exciting to create your own background with the sprays and acrylic paints.

But, actually the glitter pastes and wax pastes are great products to add the shimmer and shine to your project.

The wax paste works great on porous surfaces, such a canvas especially on textured surfaces It has a smooth color and shade, it's best to apply it with your finger tips. Start with just a little then apply more as needed.  It goes pretty far!

You can also combine 2-3 colors to achieve a more gradient look. And the same can be done with the glitter paste- simply add/mix 2 colors while spreading them on the surface through the Stickable Stencil.

To add more colors I used the acrylic paints, they help you to make it look more even.

You can find the process of my creation from start to finish in my video

I also mounted the paper layers on the card board pieces, to give the canvas somegreat dimension.

These are some of the Bo Bunny and Pentart mixed media products I used to create my canvas.  Glitter Pastes not pictured.

Hope you have liked my canvas end enjoyed watching the tutorial.

Thank you for stopping by!

Life in Color and Pentart metallic Wax Pastes with Solange

Hello BoBunny fans!!

It's Solange Marques here. Today I'll share with you a new mixed media project using Life in Color collection and Pentart Metallic Wax Pastes!

I've made a canvas for this post. 

I've glued "Life in Color Bricks" on the canvas. Then I applied BoBunny white gesso (quite unevenly) on some bricks to get more texture.

After that dried, I applied Pentart Wax Paste on them.  See how it highlights the texture of the dry gesso?

I added fussy cuttings of the elephant and the octopus/

I've applied wax paste on some places of the elephant and the tag, too.

I love to make this canvas! It's so crazy!

For me, the bricks represent real life, the reality and the winged elephant is the dream, the freedom. And everything is possible on the dreams !!

The octopus represents everything that tries to envelop us with its arms and hold us. But we can always chose to between the dreams and the freedom or the arms of reality and commitments. Is it too crazy? I love how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by today!
