Choose Happiness-Inspirational Wall Art

Spritz a 24.5x17.5cm panel of watercolour cardstock with water and randomly sprinkle with Infusion dye stain. Spritz again, allowing the colour to run. Leave to dry and matt onto purple cardstock.

Mix equal amounts of black gesso with iridescent medium and apply through the stencil using a palette knife. Once dry, stamp the phrase in black, add clear embossing powder and heat.

Paint the white of the eye, add Glossy Accents to the iris and allow to dry. Colour the edge of the panel using Stormy Sky ink and shape the corners.

Stamp the focal words using the two Distress Oxide Ink colours and heat-emboss with clear embossing powder. Ink the edges as before, matt onto purple cardstock and affix to the panel.

Make the background frame using a 31x23.5cm piece of corrugated card with the outer layer removed in places. Curve the corners and apply paint using a brush and your fingers, then add areas of crackle paint.

Sprinkle coloured embossing powder into the corrugations and heat from behind. Once dry, adhere the panel to the frame.
