Don't be foiled...

I wanted to break away from the cool colours I have been working with recently and go really bright colours for a change. And this is what I came up with...

P1060239 

Using a variety of colourful acrylic paints I created my background...

P1060260 

I have foiled my sentiments by die cutting them from double sided adhesive sheets and rubbing them with gold foil from Crafter's Companion. The love die is by Hero Arts and the Hugs die is by Papertrey.

P1060228 

To create come contrast with the background I added a floral stencil with white paint and a black damask stencil design in black.

 P1060255
    
These really are such a contrast to my recent creations and I love the results.

P1060238 

There is no Youtube video for this one, sometimes I just like to play without the faffing of the video camera! Don't forget to check out my Youtube channel though as there are lots of art and mixed media videos on there you might like!

These creations are for the Simon Says Challenge this week which is called "Don't be fooled, be foiled". 

I hope you are having a good day and thank you for stopping by!
