Mixed media card a first

 Good afternoon friends

I did a mixed media card for the first time with inspiration from Darlene Pavlick. As  i didnt know how to do it I went our eternal friend You Tube and watched some videos. Then I jumped to do it as nothing can be done without experience. I did a mock project on a cardboard to see whether it collaborates. 

I applied home made Gesso to prime the card piece and added a book page which is very old, I scrunched the page and applied brown and gold ink to give it a vintage look. I touched the edges of the book page too. Then I pasted the flower which was also touched with brown and gold.  What is a flower without a butterfly. I die cut a butterfly and colored it in brown and gold and attached it.As I am  yet to own any stencils I found a piece of mesh clothwith small holes and applied it using brown and gold ink 

I colored the white twine in brown and tied a bow  I layered the sentiment Hugs and attached it to the card. 

I am going to link this card to https://mixitupchallenge.blogspot.com/

Take care Stay safe and create
