Me by Suzanne

Hi everyone Suzanne here 

This blog post is a canvas about me and this is very rare as I never do anything about me

But recently I had my hair done (I had mesh integration done) I know having your hair done doesn’t sound like much but this is a big process and its made me feel like a different person maybe like my younger confident self again I’m not sure anyway this is not a diary post hahaha This is about my canvas I created 

Also make sure to check out our blog for the other designers awesome work for great inspiration  and the Helmar Website  for all your glue needs IMG_7205

IMG_7205I used Super TAC Glue and 450 Quick Dry Adhesive for my project

I Started by adding some texture paste through a stencil around the top edges and the back of the canvas

 Then painted it yellow but it was way too bright so painted it white to tone it down a lot

I added lots of cardboard to the back of my photo which I matted on some patterned paper and tied some ribbon across it

I then glued down some gauze before adding some wired ribbon which I folded then placed it a crossed the middle
