Inspiration!!!

Sometimes we need some inspiration to get us going, so I found this over at Mixed Media World..

So I came up with this...

I created the background using a mixture of Derwent Artbar in Paynes Grey, Cosmic shimmer chalk paints in Chalkboard and Slate Grey. 

The bottom section was created using some tissue paper that was mod podged to the surface, I am really facinated by whimsical, folk arty pictures, so I drew this lighthouse. I coloured the main part with some alcohol markers and added some Distress Glitter Black Soot. I glued this onto the project and added a few Cosmic Shimmer Glitter Jewels Midnight Snow.

White gesso is great to use, so I created the light by dry brushing onto the project. 

Really enjoy using a limited palette...
