So now you have all the info let me share with you the project that I have made especially for this month. 

 Living in a seaside town it made perfect sense to go with what I know, the boat is my means of transport being that my husband is more often than not out bobbing around the deep blue in search of his next catch.

For my project I worked on a canvas board with Dina Wakely acrylics.  I added a little DecoArt crackle paint in areas for interest.

For my beach houses  and vessel I decided to collage using old French dictionary pages along with Tim Holtz distress Matt medium. 

       

  

I doodled over my canvas with Posca paint pens and added some pearly dots using liquid pearls to create my fizzing ocean.
