So happy to be back here with the girls and playing with my Pan Pastels on an 8x8 canvas. To create the background, I covered the whole canvas with old book pages adhering them with Maimeri Matt Gel first, followed by a quick swipe of a Versamark clear ink pad then applying lots of layers with Pan Pastels, stamps and doodles.

I have made a clock canvas this week. used my pan pastels to create a background on my canvas and then added layers of texture using PCB stencils with Maimeri gloss gel, Maimeri irredescent paste and Maimeri white acyrilic paint. I then over stamped using the fab PCB stamps. My clock numbers (!) were made by first creating a background (with my pan pastels, distress inks and PCB stamps) and then cutting the background up to fit small frames.
Terry I had loads of fun with a Canvas, I made the background with lots of PanPastels, Red, White, Blue, Yellow and Metallic PanPastels. The Hearts are made with the Board from Dutch Doobadoo. And on top I worked with Crackle Accents and Iridescent Paste, mixed them together to see what they would do. And to make the shapes on the background I used the Sofft Angle Round Sponce. And

Anjie - I have made this canvas by firstly covering it all in white Gesso to give it a base. I then covered it with a light covering of the orange Pan Pastel. I then made my own circle mask my punching different sized circles into a piece of acetate. I then used Pan Pastels as a paint (mixed with a little water) and painted through the stencil. I then went around the edges of all the circles with a black Sharpie pen and added some white highlights with the white Gesso.
The Pan Pastels I used are:
