Make a Wish

I thought it would be fun to share
 how I created a dandelion.

I  always think of my friend, Cheryl!


All of the products are by Decoart.

I based a 4 inch wooden canvas
 Lamp Black


I used my favorite dry wall 
tape as a stencil.


I added Indian Turquoise, Antique White, and Foliage Green. 

I didn't clean my stencil brush out between colors. 
It helped create other colors. 
Turn the tape different directions.

This is NOT an OCD-friendly project.🙄😕



Oh, lookie, a friend came to help me decorate for Halloween! 😁😂🤣


I then added circles with punchinello to add more interest.


I was using a small stencil brush, and look what I discovered.

It made a flower!

I  taped it off so you could see it.


How fun is this! 



I added squiggly lines of Lemonade, Foliage Green, and Plantation pine.

I drew a circle to show you where my dandelion would be.


I lightly stippled the circle with 
Titanium White.


I added lines of Foliage Green and Plantation Pine.

Public service Announcement: buy a good 18/0 liner! It makes all the difference in the quality of your linework! Even with quick and simple projects!

Small dots of Lamp Black were added to the center with a stylus.


Next Marigold dots were added--just a few.

Titanium White Dots were added with a large stylus, keeping them various sizes, and, yes, randomly placed.

Finish with just a few tiny Lamp Black Dots.


How easy was that?!


I added the word WISH with a Decoart Americana Stencil.


I shaded around the edges with my favorite Payne's Grey.







Of course, I had to make a domino, too...


AND a 3 inch canvas, too!


My goodness, this was really fun.

I KNOW you can do this.

Please share if you do.

Let's go out and paint wishes! 😚😊🙄

I am simply blessed to create~charlotte♡
