Wall hanging

Hi friends!

I feel like I've been away for a long time!

I am finally feeling better...

shoulder pain has eased

 and

 the cold my daughter shared with us is finally gone.

On a good day I made this wall hanging...

I started with gesso, 

then added some blue texture paint with a stencil here and there.

The S is a grunge board alpha.

I sprayed it with Stream Adirondack Color Wash then with 

Walnut gold Glimmer Mist.

Love the shimmer!

I topped that off with some Glossy Accents.

I pop dotted it on top of a piece of lace that I hit with the heat gun a little bit which melted and tightened up the lace a bit. 

Don't know if you can really see the effect but I liked the look of that.

I sprayed the flowers with Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist.

For the large rose and one small rose bud, from I am roses, I used Chipped Sapphire Distress Marker on the edges before spraying with the Glimmer Mist. 

The carnations are also from I am roses

and the light blue roses are from my stash.

I tucked a couple pieces of pearl trim, from my stash 

and a couple of leaves (I am roses) underneath.

The hinge is another piece of grunge board. 

I sprayed it with Suede Glimmer Mist and added a couple of brads.

The blue wheat spray is from Pro 31 Designs. 

 A piece of burlap, trim and bling that I through together was added to the bottom.

A couple of eyelets and browned covered wire for the top to hang it

and that is my wall hanging tag!

Thanks to everyone who left well wishes for me while I was under the weather!
