Summer Mixed Media Vertical By Pinky

Hey there Clear Scraps friends, it's Pinky again today and this time I have a fun SUMMER project using the newest Vertical Expressions release from Clear Scraps, and I decided to make it fancy by using the Mixers and Mascils on the Summer Expression.

For the top I used the Cloud Mixers and created "fluffy" clouds using Modeling Paste and using the Mixer as a stencil with a dash of glitter.

I added the modeling paste sprinkled with white glitter, allowing it to fully dry then spray painted the back with a light blue paint.

After that I used the 3X12 Waves Border Mascil to paint some watery waves. I used a teal paint on the front and a lighter blue on the back.

Then I added sand paste to the bottom to represent the sun, sea, and sand of summer beach trips.

After everything dried I handpainted the sunglasses in a gold paint, then when it was dried I added the glitter "lens" with a paint brush and glitter.

It was a fu project that I hoped convey the love of the beach and summer. I am happy with the end result and cannot wait to hang it on my wall.

I love that the Mascils make fantastic stencils and the Mixers too!

Have a beautifully crafty day my friends,
