Family memories- altered double canvas




This item was published in SCRAP STREET MAGAZINE May issue
This work one of TOP 5 at ABC challenge blog letter N- NEW- challenge- thanks!!

This work was on of TOP 3 on Die cut dreams Hearts challenge- thanks!!

I did this altered item over a long period- tried to see it from different angels and I still need better attachments between both sides (need to get it from some home store)- but finally I can show it and even close to Valentine day and our Israeli Family day . The inner photo is interchangable- I just used this old cute photo of 3 of my 4 kids ages ago- but everything that is about 8.5 '' * 6 '' will be great here as the canvas size is 12*9.5'' (30*24 cm)
As for the work- this is mixed media art- the book shape was done from 2 canvases with acrylics and lots of sand paper distressing and a bit of a candle technique.
All others are paper crafts items: October afterrnoon and Webster pages pp, Prima flowers, felt, flower centers,crystals and pearls,AC thickers brown chipboard shapes - distressed, Adornit music ribbon, Dress it up buttons, some
pins , K &co chipboard butterflies and some home store fabric doily.
I also did some paper piecing on the flower frame and used some 3d glue there on the raspberries.The title is A2Z scraplets chipboard and MM blings.
The metal corners were my last touch and here is is- closed and opened and some close up to the cover.
And finally this is the time to submit it for all these hearts and love challenges as I have 8 hearts here and this Valentine colors and lots of love for my family.
Love- home deco item- for By cute and girly

Hearts and flowers for Polka doodle
Bling - for Fussy and fancy ,

Music - the ribbon- for Crafty ANN
Ribbons for Belli

New for ABC- it's new altered I never did and lot's of new items on it
Hearts for Die cut dreams,

Colors- use pink and black for Color create
