'Hello Love' by Anita Rodway

Hi there Colour Blasters!!! 

Anita here :)

I'm sharing a sneak peek at some new

Mica Colour Powders!! Here's a layout I created

using them...

'HELLO LOVE'

I have not used mica powders a lot before, so I adapted

them in a way I was familiar

with. I firstprepped my layout with some gesso

& then moved in to create a watercolour

effect using the powders.

I decided then I wanted to do some stenciling,

so I mixed some mica powder in with some gel medium

& used a script stencil.

I wanted to alter my wood veneer, by colouring it.

I painted it with gesso first, & while it was wet, daubed

some mica powder onto it using my finger.

I had made up the pink mica powder & gel medium

originally for stencilling, but changed my mind LOL.

I didn't want to waste it - who ever wants to do that?!

So I started freehanding a big flower on my layout.

Once it was dried, I knifed around a few petals & tucked

my photo underneath.

Have you had a play with the new Mica Powders yet???

Anita!
