Art Soul Life Mini Canvas - Donna Salazar Designs

Hi everyone!  Today I have a little art canvas to share with you... I created this while I was procrastinating making something else, thinking it was supposed to happen that way!

I have used Want 2 Scrap stencils with Texture Paste to created the brick wall background and layered it with loads of colour.  


I've cut some butterflies from Want 2 Scrap canvas, coloured them and added matching Bling to give them loads of wow factor.




I've made some flowers with the Mulberry Paper from the Mix'd Media Stax 2.  I love the different effect using the Mulberry has instead of using plain patterned papers. I have wet them after cutting and shaping them and the water made the paper soften even more and create this felt like look.

 I've also cut some shadow flowers from mulberry paper which I've coloured with smooch spritz, they add a soft contrast with the bricks.




I hope you like what I have created... I had lots of fun making a mess with this one!  I have a step by step tutorial also for you  on how I created the background, and how to utilise all the left over colour.
