Sometimes LIFE can become overwhelming....
when it happens to me
I NEED TO CREATE!
To go to my happy place and find some PEACE!
After hoping along the Mixed Media Mania YouTube Hop
I was inspired to pull out a canvas and to use some BRIGHT colors.
The colors also fell in line with the
Our Mixed Media Moods so it seem PERFECT!

Can I say....it scared me!! So much so, I ran to my kitchen sink,
pulled out a scrub brush and
pulled out a scrub brush and
scrubbed off as much color as I could.
THEN.....I LOVED IT!
and I could see my background of collaged vintage papers.

To tone it down a tad more, I covered the canvas with
Distress Collage Medium ~ Vintage
When it was dry, I added a very light layer of White Gesso.

From this point on....I went into full CREATE MODE
which to me means.....just create with out documenting!
I used the Butterfly Collage Stencil and applied
a mixture of Light and Fluffy with Champagne Modeling Paste
mixed with......wait for it.....sand!
I accented my canvas with various colored Prills
and one of my FAVORITE stamps.
I hope you enjoyed my FREE CREATE ~ PLAY DAY
I know I did and I LOVE IT!
