It Takes A Village

I have been wanting to dabble in mixed media art and have finally taken the plunge.  Here is my first piece.  I am a bit in love with using old book pages for the background and I love Dylusion Ink Sprays with TCW stencils.

The houses are stamped on sticky back canvas, embossed in white and then colored with Distress stains.  I added Art Anthology Dimensional Crystal for the windows and Liquid  Pearls for other detail.

The sun was made with Art Anthology Sorbet Gel paint and Dimensional Crystals and Stickles.
