I created this double canvas for the Lotstodo Challenge where this week the theme is TAGS. I painted both canvasses with black gesso then whilst wet sprinkled on some rock salt. When they were dry i put on some gold rubb n buff here and there. It makes the rock salt look a little like gold nuggets :):) I then made my tags using masks, inks and stamps. I finished off the whole thing with the lettering which I'd cut from a sheet of Tim's background papers, mounted on to cardboard and inked. The canvasses are joined together with bookmakers cotton binding attached with my super new stapling machine.
The canvasses are for a friend who is busy creating her first very own craft room - hope she likes them
A very very lucky friend Hazel
