Another Circular canvas!

Good afternoon

I think i am on a role with using a circular substrate at the moment, they just seem to work so well

Canvas number 2

Materials

20cm circular card 300gsm
20cm circular cake board
Tracy Evans Stamp sets 
Scraps of card glued to an A4 card base
Paints, inks, guilding wax, glue,
Soft wire, thread, embellishments - wire mesh,  a hinge, a key and some embossing frantage powders

Finished canvas

Scraps of card glued on to an A4 sheet of card and an 8" circle cut out


Turn the circle over and score at 1" intervals going over it 2 or 3 times as the card is really thick

Using distress oxide ink pads - Speckled egg and Vintage photo very lightly drag the ink pad down the canvas catching the scored lines


I stamped some circles onto the canvas in Speckled egg and Ivory paint and some numbers in the inks.


Close up of the stamping



2 rectangular pieces of card scored at 1/2" intervals and inked in the same way


I dragged the 2 ink pads down the length of some card and cut some thin strips and staggered the lengths


I stamped the figure from 3 times and cut them out and layered together to make it thicker



I layered the rectangles with heavy Gel medium to get some lift and added in a hinge and key, both painted to go with the piece.  A piece of wire mesh and some fine silver wire and thread and then the image on top  I cut out some of the numbers from the stamp and added them too along with some embossing  ink bits and sentiments from the stamp to finish it off

Thank you for visiting and hope to see you again
