Mixed media plaque using Infinity collection

Hello everyone,
 This is kavitha here today and i have a small tutorial to share for making this wall plaque with mixed media background.I have used "Infinity" collection for this project.As you may have seen already ,this collection is super gorgeous and  have some beautiful coordinating die cuts and flair buttons.

So lets get started

First i applied a coat of gesso on the wood.Then started sticking some pattern  papers in random way using mod podge(instead of sticking it as single layer this gives more texture for the base).The paper has some amazing textures to it which  suits mixed media very well.

Then i applied a coat of water downed gesso  to tone down the colors.Once it dried applied modelling paste through stencil,and while its still wet sprinkled some micro beads.

Sprayed some distress spray spun sugar and allowed it to dry.So now the base is ready in few easy steps.I decorated the plaque using beautiful die cuts and flair buttons from the collection along with some mulberry flowers and die-cut leaves.

Here are some close ups,isn't the die cuts are so gorgeous?,working with them is a breeze.

I hope you liked my project and enjoyed the tutorial,dont forget to leave your feed back:)

I wish you all a amazing and crafty NEW YEAR 2016,see you all next year:)

Happy crafting,
