Here are some close ups…….
I primed the chipboard with white or clear gesso, then applied clear crackle onto some areas. I applied Texture paste behind the Sand Dollars. I let the crackle & paste dry then played with color….
For the color I rubbed on brown using a ink pad. For the blues I painted the pieces with the dreamweaver paste & rubbed on the chalk…..
I used the corrugated paper (that I painted with the white gesso) & the chain frame as the frame for the photo…..


I did layers on the large ship wheel using the circle chain, compass rose, small ship wheel, lizard & a flower cluster…..Here are a few more close ups…..





Thank you so much for taking the time to look & I am looking forward to see what you come up with this months Mood Board Challenge…..Rachelle
