Canvas I created, using one pair of my old slippers, which are a memory, to treasure for me...

I was inspired, by canvascorpbrands March mood board, spring time...

http://blog.canvascorpbrands.com/march-challenge-re-birth-enter-win/

 

This is how, I created it:

 

I applied modeling paste, together with, natural sand and white school glue on the canvas surface...

All around, I used a brick stencil with modeling paste...

Attached the slippers and covered them, with white school glue; in the inside part, I glued down, some cotton...

 

I started to colour, using metallic acrylic gold and acrylic vermilion...

I glued down, some macro and micro artstones, some pieces of faux green...

 

I used some metal embellishments, cloth flowers, plastic leaves, more faux green and crystal wired balls..

I painted them, using: gesso, acrylic colours (scarlet, vermilion, orange, lemonyellow, yellowmid, yellowdeep, green, burnt sienna, brown); magic clolours (turchoise, orange, light pink); galactic metallic pink

I added, a bird, next to the squirrel...

The letters are, pieces of chipboard that, I attached over, tiny, foam pieces; glued down to the canvas...

And coloured everything, with the paints, I have mentioned above...

Finally, I sprayed everything, with bright, protective enamel...

 

 

I am also, presenting my creation, for these challenges:
