Anything Goes - Boat Hanging

Hi friends! Dana here today. I've altered a portion of the Boat Hanging for the Anything Goes theme this week. With Monday being Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, I used one of his quotes on this piece.

I painted all the pieces of the boat with a layer of DecoArt White Gesso. Once that was dry, I mixed up a colorful palette of fluid acrylics using DecoArt Primary Magenta, Cyan, and Yellow. I glued the porthole circles to metal coin for a more nautical feel. Once all the pieces were dry and glued together I added the quote with a black pen.

You can find the chipboard I used for this project, and a wonderful selection of DecoArt products, in the Tando Creative Retail Store. We'd love to see your creativity! Share your work with us in Tando's Creative Zone on Facebook.

Under the Sea Card

Hi friends! Dana here today sharing the card I created for the Under the Sea theme this week. I absolutely love the fish from the Boat Hanging. I covered the fish with a layer of bright orange embossing powder and attached him to a simple shaker card.

I recently created this mixed media board with the other fish from the Boat Hanging Set. Please CLICK HERE to read more about how I assembled this piece.

Watercolor Mixed Media Board

Hi friends! Dana here today sharing an under water themed Mixed Media Board for the Watercolor Theme this week. I'm longing for Summer and the warmer months so I was inspired to create this fun beachy board. I painted a Mixed Media Board with acrylic and watercolor paints and then used the Long Flourish Mask to add a light aqua swirl over the top of the blue base to help create depth. I added some texture to the border of the board with some chunky blue embossing powder.

I used the top layer from the Oval/Teardrop Jewelry Design to replicate a piece of coral. The bright orange fish is one of a pair from the Boat Hanging. I finished this piece with some mini paper flowers, clear stickers, shells, a rub-on and some doodled bubbles. I'm ready to hit the beach!
