Together we can.....


What a WONDERFUL summer it has been....
I was SOOO BLESSED to have the opportunity to
to spend the week on the Maine Coastline...
I wanted to remember the AMAZING time so I created
this wall hanging.

I had picked up a "wooden palette fence" piece
at a local big box store.


This is what the "wooden palette fence" looked like
(minus the paint)
before I began my creative process.

I went to my Perfect Paints stash and pulled out


I scooped out some Perfect Paints ~ White Stucco
and GENTLY folded in a bit of
The key to making this work is
NOT MIXING the products together completely.


I applied the mixture with a palette knife to achieve this
"weathered fence" look!
HOW AWESOME!!!


I stapled a bit of Chicken Wire to my "fence"
and created a flower spray
using various Petaloo blooms
Botanica Bloom
Mini Pearl Daisies
and Petites
along with a bit of ephemera.




I love the quote I chose to finish off my piece....

"Together we can face any challenges...

as deep as the ocean
and as high as the sky."


I hope you have enjoyed my creative process....
wishing you a
WONDERFUL,
CREATIVE DAY!!
