Seize the Day! This fun plaque in layered in flowers and crackles and shimmers. I’ve drilled holes in the top and hung with pretty blue wire that I curled on the front side of the painting. I used acrylics, watercolors, pastels, rubberstamping, collaging, glitter paints, sparkle glaze, rhinestones, flower brads, and more. Carpe Diem is textured with texture paste, painted pretty purple and crackled, I then put a light blue wash over the letters to emphasize the crackle effect. The center of the black flowers are done with black Liquid Applique and heated to “puff” it up. This is a fun bright sunny piece that can hang somewhere special to remind you to Seize the Day! Today on my easel is a lovely ladybug, she’ll be ready to fly sometime this week. =) Until then … Keep Cool, Keep Crazy, & Keep Creating.
