Steampunk Blog Hop!

Good morning friends Kim here today with a fun Steampunk blog hop!
The list of folks who are doing the hop is at the bottom of this post, along with all the sponsors.
So make sure you hop to all the projects on the list and comment so you can win one of the great prizes. 

Here is my project, it is a mixed media canvas with a slightly shabby chic twist.

I used a 5 x 7 inch canvas for this project. I started off with some texture paste in the background and layered on a large chipboard gear.


I stacked up my elements and then painted over my first layer with white paint. Then used my sprays over top once that was dry. I also used some Lindy's mica powders as well to give a nice metallic sheen to the canvas.


Once those layers were dry I added my top elements, a Tim Holtz sentiment and flowers from Recollections.  I wanted to have different textures and lots of cool things to look at!


Here is some of the sprays I used for my canvas. I tried to stick to mostly metallics, and I love Lindy's sprays for this. 


If you are interested in seeing a step by step tutorial, I worked on this canvas on a live Youtube a few weeks back which you can watch HERE
