The latest challenge at Everything Wendy Vecchi is to use canvas. So this is my take on the challenge! I have become a little obsessed by Treasure Gold wax since I bought it last week while on holiday and so I started by covering all of the Art Parts with Treasure Gold and then a coat of Fresco Finish paint (variously: Beach Hut, Hey Pesto, Nougat and Little Black Dress) and then a gentle sand. 

The leaf-turned-quill actually had a layer of green paint and then another of Treasure Gold and then Nougat paint - this gives it a little more interest to the 'feathers'. Everything had a little Vintage Photo Distress Ink added! I hadn't really thought of this leaf Art Part as anything but a leaf but by chance I put it upside down next to a 'spare' (or reject!) ink bottle and the idea was hatched! Don't you just love happy coincidences?!

The Claudine Hellmuth's sticky backed canvas was inked with Antique Linen and then stamped with one of Wendy's script stamps in Sepia Archival Ink. I added a little canvas behind the Ideaology label pull and another of Wendy's stamps. I wonder if this needs a little something on the right hand side? I suspect that this might be one of those pieces that you keep adding to?!!!
