A New Begining

Alas! I managed to complete my Mixed Media Tag. It's a huge tag, I know but after much thought, I decided to turn this into the cover of my new Art journal.

I decided to give a try to this hard plastic medium to create this Mixed Media project. I have always been saving this material every time I discard pages from files at the office and always wonder what I am going to do with them. I guess, experimenting is the answer. I started on this project last week but never got around to completing it. Today, I decided to finish it off and see how my experiment will work our eventually.

This is how the original looks like.
This cover is always in files that I received
from our counterpart in US. When the contents
are discarded after a while, so, too, this plastic
sheet.
After applying Gesso, I painted it with acrylic paints in various colours and add all the elements using Mod Podge.

Supplies : Plastic Sheet,
Gesso, Acrylic Paints, Mod Podge
Handmade Flowers (thank you Asmah),
Stencils (Martha Stewart and unknown)
Wooden Flowers from Typo
UW Handmade Flowers
Ribbon Flower handmade by me
Washi Tape
Drywall Tape
Lace flower from DIY

Ink
