February 2020


Welcome to February !
WOW, January was a whirl wind trip for “the Boss” Jennifer Hedger and Jen Burns when they went to
“Creativation 2020” in Phoenix with Janene of
49 and Market booth. Her new paper ranges and embellishments are just stunning. 
Of course there are photos taken and shared but here they are again.



That was a wrap and Janene and us

Other Elements used: Clear Gesso, White Gesso, Clear Crackle Paint, LuminArt Silk-Oyster, Prills, Chalk, Cheesecloth….Here are a few close ups….
For the background I ripped pieces from the Vintage Artistry Collection listed above. I Primed the chipboard with the clear gesso then applied the clear crackle paint on to some areas of the chipboard pieces. Once the crackle dried I painted the pieces with the oyster silk, & rubbed in chalk that was in the same tone of blue-green in the Mood Board. My inspiration came from the Mood Board to use the wild grass, that I glued prills onto. The Photo was framed with the circle frame then I layered chipboard pieces over the frame . I also altered the flowers with dry brushing on some white gesso & changed the flower centers with using sequins & prills. 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 challenge…….Rachelle
