Taking the Scenic Route

Hello friends! I know many of you are still getting snow, but we here in Arizona are starting to see some long awaited blooms.

If you would like to see how I created this panel, you can see the video below.

I created this panel to frame to remind me of Spring time in full bloom. I started out with a resist panel from from Heidi Swapp and added some Liquitex acrylic paint. Once that was dry, I added the Architexture chicken wire.

I fussy cut several flowers and images from Spring Showers Flowers on Ivory paper and adhered them to the panel using collage medium. I then colored the images using my copic markers. 

Once everything was colored, I sealed the colors in with more collage medium and added an ephemera butterfly and chip board from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology collection. 

Thanks for stopping by!
