Edna says it is time to mix things up. The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers presents you with Challenge # 53 M is for Mixed Media.
It took me forever to get my challenge piece done. I kept starting things and tossing them away, unhappy with my results. Then I decided to try altering a playing card. I didn't have a plan, I was going to keep adding bits until it was ready for the trash or until I liked what I had made.
I have used gesso, Tim Holtz tissue paper, acrylic paint, modeling paste. stamping ink, gelato, crackle medium, and micro-beads. I was afraid to apply anything else because I thought everything might crack off my card.
The vintage image and saying came from Lisa's Altered Art on Etsy.

Awesome!!! I would have not thought about a playing card. it would be a bit more sturdy to hold everything you used. I wouldn't know where to begin using all that stuff.,
Ohhhhhhhhhh so pretty! I love the colours, the textures, the image and of course the sentiment! Super fantastic job sistah!
I never thought to try altering a playing card! (face palm) So much smaller an area to screw up! LOL! This turned out fabulous!
Such a cool idea to start with a playing card! Must try that. Such a perfect finished piece. Love the colours, image and of course the oh-so-true sentiment.
