ALTERED ECLECTICS - bloom, grow canvas

Hello all, another challenge over at Altered Eclectics and this month I have decided to share with you a canvas I created. 

I used lots of lovely IndigoBlu stamps on this project to create a stamped layered background. 

I inked the canvas with different coloured inks and sprayed then stamped randomly over the top with IndigoBlu Itsy Bitsy Backgrounds and the IndigoBlu Ledger stamp. 
I then stamped the Umbellate stamp over the top. 

I then added swipes of FlitterGlu with my finger in random placed and added some gilding flakes. 

To finish, I added areas of melted wax to create texture around the edges of the canvas and coated the printed sentiment with UTEE. 

Ingredients...

A5 Itsy Bitsy Backgrounds

A6 Ledger Background

Other bits and pieces:
