Inked Tyvek Handmade Flowers

 

 

 

Hello to all of my old and new followers!

 

I am very excited and nervous to show you what I have been up to lately!

 

 

I was asked by Hilde from Crafting with Dragonflies Challenge Blog to be a Guest Designer for the new Challenge - Handmade Flowers

 

I am always happy to do a Guest Design Team Spot, it is exciting to join another team even for just a little while! he he

 

 

I have been wanting to try Tyvek flowers for a while and also Mixed Media Work, so this was the perfect opportunity to get very creative.

 

 

 

Here is the finished product

 

 

 

I wish I had of taken more photos of the Flower creation but here is what I have done:

I used the Tim Holtz Large Tattered Florals Die to cut the Tyvek Paper

Then Brushed and sponged on Reinkers

Glued them together then Heated them with a heat gun to make the Tyvek scrunch up

Then lastly added a flatback to the centres.

 

 

This is what I did for my Background:

I used a canvas board

Using Gel Medium I glued on various torn Papers and Sheet Music

I brushed and sponged on Reinkers randomly

Then I used a Face stencil by Jane Davenport with black ink

Jane has beautiful Stencils and they are available HERE

I painted in the face area with pale pink and in front of the face with white

Then all other details were made with my Promarkers and White Paint Pen

 

 

Lastly I added my Flowers with some Marianne Creatable Leaf flourishes

And the Hope Sentiment

 

 

 

I hope you all enjoy my Mixed Media Work

And drop by Crafting with Dragonflies to see the other wonderful flowers and creations the DT Ladies have made.
