I played with the new trees, used them as a whole shape,

or another tree was lopped off to grow a wildflower afterwards.

   Hello everyone!

 

 Have you seen the  latest MDF shapes by Calico Craft Parts?

- enchanting moons and old gnarled trees - 

 

Just the right addition for projects on the theme of Magic forest.

 

I was inspired to create a shadow frame,

meaning I used a canvas from backside, 

glued a 30 x 30 scrappaper on it

and  have torn a part out of the middle.

Behind you will discover a mysterious old castle, 

which is framed by these beautiful old trees.

Home Decor - Springtime in Forest

 

 Hello everyone!

 

Today a new springtime inspiration.

 

Used a half metal egg as base, before it was a original box of chocolates.

 that has been painted with light green chalk paint.

The background was completed with cutting dies (fern leaves).

A piece of floral foam was attached in the lower part of the egg, 

shapes were inserted and on the front  glued on.

MDF shapes were primed with white gesso and 

then painted with acrylic paints.

To compliment the natural look I used dried branches with lichen.
