Подскажите где заказать такие трафареты?

[@patticriss2238]

Several times, throughout, I was thinking, girl, restraint.! But the artist proved me wrong. It’s about the layering. Cool.

[@VIOLADECOR]

Thank you! I'm glad to hear you appreciated it! I wish you creative inspiration ;-)

[@NikkiReneArtistry]

😂😂 glad you gave her till the finish line…it’s always about the layering

[@beatricebruno2513]

Inspirational! I love mixed media because you can just use what you have on hand. Mixed media is an experimentation with imagination. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@VIOLADECOR]

oh yes, this is exactly an experiment with fantasy. I love this technique too. Glad to see a like-minded person ;-) I wish you creative inspiration!

I'm just getting into mixed media and it is so satisfying. I get to use all the stuff I've been collecting for so long. I just didn't know what for. I loved your piece here. Thanks for sharing.

So beautiful !! Would love to see a version of this with some grayed purple or red violet. Thank you

[@VIOLADECOR]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! about this plot in purple colors - it's difficult, because the decoupage card was exclusively in green color... but I'm looking for an interesting picture in violet colors for the panel ;-) thanks for the idea!

[@jewels64628]

I’m in love with this beautiful piece of art !!! I would also like to point out something that I feel is important, where I need to stress that my sole intention in bringing this to your attention is done in the most complimentary of ways. I would much prefer hearing your voice as opposed to any style of music. I honestly feel that watching and listening to you simultaneously as you methodically move through the many stages and multiple layering of your individual, well developed artistic process. As well, I would very much so, sincerely appreciate knowing where you found that absolutely spectacular decoupage paper ? I am rather serious about its purchase so I’m hoping and wondering if you know if it is still available ? Thank you so much !

[@VIOLADECOR]

Such nice words! thank you very much! Unfortunately, my spoken English is very bad, as for video dubbing ;-) but in a recent video I tried to use the voice of artificial intelligence - I hope you will like it too ;-) In my Ukrainian videos, I also use additional dubbing of the creative process itself (my voice :)) But, in fact, the technique of mixed media is not a developed process, but an absolute flight of fantasy directly in the creative process. The decoupage card was the starting point, then there was improvisation ;-) Regarding the decoupage card, it is a card from Stamperia, I am attaching a photo of its article number. I think that you can search in online stores (since I bought it a long time ago). Photo on the file exchange fex.net/s/vfmbszs

Iam in love with this project. May I ask where I can get those stencils? A big wave coming to you from Murfreesboro Tennessee

[@VIOLADECOR]

I am also in love with this project! I've had this decoupage card (from Stamperia) lying around for a long time, and finally I got inspiration and it found its image. Regarding the stencils - you can take the background of any company - I took pebbles of different shapes and leaves of different sizes and shapes. The central stencil I found here www.miniatureluxuries.com/products/kstdg06-thick-stencil-30x30-once-upon-a-time. But you can look for it near you. And thank you for your warm hugs and support! I am also sending you my warm hugs from Ukraine 😘💙💛

[@ykpawaemmir]

Интересная идея! Класс!

[@VIOLADECOR]

[@Nathalieroy2624]

These stencils are so cool! Where did ypu get them?

[@VIOLADECOR]

thank you very much! stencils were bought for a long time in various stores. I always buy them if I see that they are interesting. there is never enough stencils. ;-) they can sometimes lie for a while and wait for their creative work :))

[@Linda-z3g3k]

Question .. do you usually use watered down paint for collages?

[@VIOLADECOR]

Yes, this is the easiest way to tint a picture. Paints are available in a variety of colors, and even when diluted, acrylic paints retain their acrylic properties.

[@SilviaCristinaCampinas]

Belíssimo!!!!!

[@VIOLADECOR]

muito obrigado! 🤩💙💛

[@annieaffi6676]

wow

[@VIOLADECOR]

thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it! 🤩💛💙

[@donski38]

Do you have any suggestions to create this 3D effect on the stencils without structural paste? Absolutey gorgeous mixed media art BTW, ready to be wall hung!! ❤❤

[@VIOLADECOR]

Thank you very much for the kind words! It's great to hear that this work is so inspiring! ;-) yes, the picture is ready for the interior. Regarding the alternative method - through a stencil without paste, unfortunately. But the paste itself can be used any - and various volume gels, you can add a thickening medium to acrylic paint (which will make the paint thick and it will keep its shape), you can take construction putty and tint it with acrylic paint (but the putty is white and if you tint it with paint, then it will whiten the color, the paint in this case should be taken no more than 30% of the amount of putty). But as an alternative to a stencil, you can take interchangeable chipboards for scrapbooking. But they will still look a little different.

[@lindaed3594]

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Could have stopped application many times & it remained GORGEOUS EVERY TIME! Fabulous!!

[@jennawolf9873]

❤❤❤

[@VIOLADECOR]

Thanks! 💙💛

[@cassandrasuzannelalonde4758]

I am sorry another question, how many shades of green did you use?

[@VIOLADECOR]

Regarding shades of green: I had medium green + dark green paints, I took them separately and diluted them with water, or mixed them in different proportions. Also, one layer was green + a little ocher. A separate green was a paste with crystals (I also added a little dark green there) and a green gel (I also added a little dark green there). This dark green was added to each material (because they all differed from each other in general) and thus united them in a common color scheme of green. The general principle is to select shades for the picture, take several shades from light to dark. You can always feel free to write questions - I will definitely answer!

[@shellaa53]

Is there a list of all the supplies? I would buy them all!

[@VIOLADECOR]

A list of all consumables is given in the description of the video. The main ones are a decoupage card www.amazon.com.au/STAMPERIA-INTERNATIONAL-KFT-DFSA3049-Forest/dp/B084Q9ZWRC (but unfortunately it is not available here, but there is a part number and you can search) and a stencil large www.dawnbibby.com/stamperia-large-12-x-12-stencil---once-upon-a-time-kstdg06 . All other stencils can be cut out, but with pebbles, various twigs and leaves.

I'm sorry, but I can't change it anymore. But you can click on the gear icon and select Display speed there, and change it to 0.75 from the original. The video display will become slower. Now I'm trying to edit the video not so fast.

[@christinemcgovern2849]

@@VIOLADECOR OH! I wasn't aware I could slow it down. Thanks for that! Also, do you think it's necessary to use Gesso as a primer or can I use acrylic or chalk paint instead? Thank you!

[@christinemcgovern2849]

@@VIOLADECOR ok, thanks for trying. I'll slow it down myself! ❤

[@VIOLADECOR]

Gesso is an ideal situation, it is good if it is there, the result will be better. An alternative is acrylic paint. However, chalk paint should not be used, as it is less resistant to water and may not produce the effect required from a primer.

[@VIOLADECOR]

but if you work with ready-made canvases from the store, they are usually already primed. And even if you have already done something on it, the original primer remains there. White paint is needed to cover the previous work.
