Wall hanging

It was the return of the lovely Jo Myhill at PaperArtsy last night and i was inspired to make this hanging, i think i will add some cup hooks to to the plaque, but at present i don't have any.


I used squid ink, eggplant, pansy and moonlight frescos, the plaque was made using the same technique Jo used, but i wrapped it with some silver mesh and raffia. I used imperial purple versafine to stamp on my heart (i then stuck it on upside down twice), then covered it in 2 coats of UTEE.

Its actually quite a bit darker than in the photo but the day is so gloomy i had to take pictures in my kitchen with the halogen lights on!

Thanks for looking

  1. Oooh love it, that wrapped silver mesh and raffia around the bottom of the plaque really gives it some depth, and love your heart upside down or not!! Great colour choice and your purple versafine stamping really compliments the whole piece.
