Let's get the BLOG party started with Petaloo DT member Helena Johansson

Hi everybody! Helena here to share some inspiration with you, using Petaloo flowers, Core'dinations papers and Xyron adhesives.

My first project is a mixed media canvas in purple shades. Purple is one of my favorite colors, and a perfect color for fall projects!

I have cut leaves using a dark grey paper from Core'dinations, and sprayed them with purple mist. The Botanica flowers from Petaloo were also misted, and I have painted the edges with some white gesso. I have glued the flower with Xyron zots, and used 3D foam squares for the clock faces, to get more dimension.

I have also made a card, and this one I'm gonna send to a friend. Fall is the perfect season for meeting friends for coffee and a talk!

For this card I have used white and dark grey papers from Core'dinations. The flowers are Botanica and Forget Me Nots. I have adhered the papers with 3D foam squares and sticky dot runner, and the flowers with zots, all from Xyron.

Thank you for stopping by today!

xoxo

Helena

Your mixed media piece is gorgeous but I am sure everyone has already said that. I pinned it and sent it to my daughter who loves doing mixed media canvases. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/391813236305684309/ Your card is so beautiful too. I was wondering how you mail these items that won't fit in an envelope?

Wow, these projects are stunning! I love the purple flowers.
