A mandala from grapes

This project is my entry for:
'March Challenge' on Beccy's Place;
'More Mixed Media Challenge - Optional Green'. 
Proiectul meu pentru provocarea lunii martie, pe site-ul lui Beccy 
si pe site-ul More Mixed Media Challenge - Optional verde.


The image used was: 'Bunch of grapes' - Beccy's creation.

LH - Beccy's creation; RH - transformed image

Materials and techniques:
Materiale si tehnici:

- three layers: one green - card stock, one green covered with  acrylic silver color
                         (a very thin coat, just to create some shades) and a white board on
                         which I printed the mandala, circle shaped;
- a special hobby puncher used for the border of the second layer;
- for coloring : pencils for the center area, a green shiny gel pen, fineliner pens for leaves,
                          acrylic gold and red and some dots obtained with a pearl maker pen; 
- both sides adhesive tape between layers;
- between leaves areas I used  heat embossing.  

Felicitarea este realizata din trei straturi, lipite intre ele cu banda
autoadeziva. Elementul central este perforat cu model la capete si
este acoperit cu un strat argintiu, foarte usor. Pentru culori am folosit
creioane, carioci din care una cu gel, acrilice auriu si rosu, marker gel pentru
puncte si intre zonele cu frunze, culoare aplicata prim embosare la cald.

This time, a mandala was obtained from grapes!
It was fun!


Addicted to effects!



I wish you all, be safe and positive!
After the storm, the sun will shine again!

    1. Mai mult dureaza pana ma hotarasc ce sa fac. Dupa aceea, a durat cam vreo doua ore. Pe mine ma relaxeaza astfel de lucrari. Uit de orice si e chiar bine, mai ales acum!
      Multumesc pentru apreciere, draga Adriana! Un weekend linistit!

      Numai bine, Carmen! Adevarul este ca ne oferi atatea destinatii, incat si mie mi-e dor de scrierile tale. Imi dau seama cat de mult iti lipsesc tie!
