Hello everyone. Well I finally got back to the craft room after my little break to have a sort out. Apologies there are a lot of photos today - the weather is bright so I went a bit mad.
I made this with a couple of challenges in mind:
I started by creating 2 masterboards. Both commenced with acrylic paints, brown and white.
The first then had a crackle medium applied and when dry black acrylic was added. Once dry I rubbed the surface to produce the effect of peeled paint.
The second was covered in a matt medium, tissue wrap added and then it was splattered with white acrylic.
I chopped them up to commence my project:
The tissue wrapped base had texture paste, embossing powder and distress ink sprays added.
The canvass frame was also treated with texture paste through a stencil and painted.
My frameworks were cut from the peeled paint masterboard, but colour was added. The inserts for the frame were a mixture of foil with alcohol inks, foil embossed and acrylic and alcolol ink added and finally the masterboard pieces with either crackle paint or glossy accents added.

The arch was cut several times to provide depth and glued together. The base of the arch was from the peeled paint masterboard with a little colour added.

Finally I added some additional frameworks to the canvass edge.
Sorry for such a long post today. Have a great day.
