Love is - Grow Old Together... Mixed Media Layout

Hello,
            Today I am come back with a mixed media layout. I am not a mixed media person at all, I have started my craft journey in paper craft. But recently i have came across mixed media projects on social media and got inspired to do some mixed media. This is my second try on mixed media layout.
            I have a pictorial for this project, hope this will helpful for beginners. So lets get started.....

Step 1: Take a piece of  cardboard measuring size 7 inch by 6.5 inch, also cut a half moon shape    from cardboard. for giving some texture i have used some bricks which also cut from cardboard, punched hearts, lace and flower from my stash.

                                      


Step 2: I have applied textured granular paste from Craftyscrapper on the moon and base to give some texture.

                                      

Step 3: I  have done some stenciling on the base. for this i have used flower and script stencil from     Icraft and used texture paste from Expressions craft.I have also added some micro and mini deco stone from Expressions craft.

                                      

Step 4: Adhere all the element in the position with the help of any liquid glue and glue gun. It looks     like this

  Step 5: After this apply black gesso all over panel and wait until it gets completely dry.

 

  Step 6: Then do the dry brushing on panel. here I have used metallic paints - velvet orchid and ancient gold from expressions craft. I have small speed video of dry brushing:

                                          

                                         

Step 7: After dry brushing with metallic paints it looks like this:

Step 8: here i have used Titanium white sprinkle mist to get splatters effect on moon. you can  use white acrylic paint also.

Step 8: Finally I have used Rainbow Sparks Glitter from Expressions craft on small hearts to get some sparkle result. and added this cute old couple add on element from Icraft and some sentiments.

 And Our project is complete....Final look is here..Hope you like it.

 Here are some closer shots shows beautiful texture we got .
