Mixed Media: Care

Hello! Today I would like to share with you my final project for the "Adopt-a-Teacher" PTA campaign. Volunteers can "adopt" one staff member to give a gift to every month. This is my final one for this school year. Hope she likes it!!

I also followed this month's color challenge at Lindy's Stamp Gang, especially since this staff member's favorite color is purple!! All my supplies are listed at the end of this post.

I wanted this project to resemble a card, without actually being a card. I wanted to keep it small and less complicated than my larger canvases. It's funny how I still end up using a LOT

of supplies though. The base is Tim Holtz tissue paper, modeling paste with stencil and layering two of Lindy's sprays.

I built the embellishments using fillers, CE frame, Prima key mold and flowers. I added die cut fillers and metal embellishments from my stash to give this a rather "full" look.

I tried to find in my stash a title that was appropriate for a teacher. I found this cute metal embellishment by Prima. I know it's not much, but I felt the word summed up teachers and staff quite nicely.

I added Vintage Gold Wax as a final touch to my project. Hope you are inspired!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY TODAY!!
