I thought I would do a mixed media style page for this one. I was inspired by the designs and distress colors from T. Holtz. I love the grunge look in conjunction with a touch of feminin steampunk look. I used some Distress Paints silver, black soot, antique bronze, letters from the vintage market Alphabet for a very old weathered look.
more details please ...
Have fun!!!!
Fabulous piece. Karen.x

Your vintage/mixed media layout is wonderful! I love all of it, Kerstin. Love the quote. Love all of the browns and bits of coppery elements you've added plus the metal!!! The photograph is absolutely adorable and I love how you've tucked the old text paper around it. Very cool! Thanks for sharing your art with us at A Vintage Journey. <3 Candy
