Here is a video of how I created my project:

To create this project I used a 6 x 6 board form TCW. Added some paint using a brayer in soft pinks.

I use TCW902 – Fantangle with a darker purple-pink color, and love the pattern.

When dry, I continue to add more texture, using TCW914 – Plumeria with some TCW Light and fluffy modeling paste.

The embellishments I chose to use is from art foamies, I stamped them out and when dry, I cut them out. I love this stamp. I added a sentiment from the Dylusions Dyalog range. I purposefully used green/blue for these cut-outs to add a third color 🙂 Lastly, I add a purple border using Majestic violet Archival Ink.

In this chaotic times, let’s all take some time to remember our core values, remember to be kind and stay in touch (via social media) with neighbors, friends, elderly. Check in. If you are feeling overwhelmed, take some time to meditate, listen to inspirational talks on Youtube or spotify. Think about starting a journal to write in, do more art if you can. Try to listen to some upbeat music, even dance. Try to do things as normally as possible. If you have any essential oils, try to use those on yourselves or in a diffuser to uplift your mood. Remember, we are all in this together, we are all minutes away for losing our minds with our kids. THAT’S OKAY! Stay home, and let’s beat this thing. 🙂
