Hi everyone! I am so excited to show you my Christmas creations made with Prima and Ranger! First is this Christmas Shadow box which is sized 8×8.
I applied some Ranger crackle paint to some parts of this box after applying gesso. I just love this effect!!I chose the basic Christmas colored flowers to decorate this box. And I also used a lot of resins too!

Next is this canvas layout.
Here, I would like to introduce a very easy tutorial so I hope you try it!
I painted gesso on to the canvas with a painting knife.
After applying gesso, I also applied some acrylic paint mixed with gesso and some crackle paint.
Finally, I sprayed pearl mist to give it a sparkling effect.
On this canvas layout, I decorated flowers with similar colors.
