A BIG thank you to Renea!!!  If you haven't been to Renea's store yet you MUST check out all the gorgeous products!  She has many mixed media products and I decided to take the below project in that direction:

 

I would say this canvas has a modern/Victorian feel to it.  I knew I had to do ONE project with "Prima" Relics and Artifacts by Sandra Evertson!  I have been eyeing up those beauties for a while!

Renea has many gorgeous laces in her store so I decided to order something very wide!  I cut this piece of lace in half  - I wanted the scalloped details facing one another.  The top photo was taken with a "flash"...You see more orange/copper coloring....The below photo shows "natural" lighting....It was a rainy day today so the photo's are not as "bright" as I would have liked.

 

When I think of "Victorian" I always imagine intricate scroll work so I decided to cut out some dies and add the intricate work to the heart using "Mod Podge"   I was going for a "filigree" metal heart look - Below is a photo showing some of the steps I took:

 

I used three colors of the "Tim Holtz" Distress Spray Stain and "Prima" Antique Gold Spray Mist available at the online store!

I sprayed the color "Peacock Feathers" by Tim Holtz  to the wings and various places on the canvas.  One of my all time fave colors!!!

I will be creating a few more items in the near future! Stay tuned!
I hope you enjoyed and don't forget to check out "ReneaBouquets"!
