Spring themed wreath

Hello everyone,

Hope you all are doing well. With the springtime and the beautiful flowers in bloom I was inspired by the pastel colours the flowers to create this beautiful wreath for home, I wanted to hang them for Easter, so I made some cute and beautiful pastel clay eggs and added a bunny made using a card stock from paperpack.

I hope this lively Spring wreath brought some colours and happiness in this difficult pandemic times. I made this wreath inspired by the beautiful pastel colours (mint green, bright yellow, grey) and the spring flowers for the Mixed media academy challenge

Method

First I painted a 10 inch embroidery hoop with pastel green chalk paint seafoam from Itsy Bitsy and added the lovely little birdie handmade flowers using silicon glue. .

I then made some handmade eggs using airdry clay, Once dry I painted it with chalk paints, and added a splatter of brown paint. And made some cute leaves.

Add the clay elements using using heavy gel and I added some glitter and pearl drops on the flower.

Here is the Mixed media Academy challenge moodboard that inspired me. Hope you all enjoyed my art.
