Good morning!
Christmas is coming and I really enjoying making and giving gifts to my friends!
I made this for a very sweet friend who loves the color purple!

 

I am lucky that my husband loves my creations and is always there to help!  He does a lot of my painting, including the 12″ circle I used as a base

 

I used gesso on home then starting using purple brusho powders and purple mists, allowed to dry then misted and sprayed again.  I used gold along the edges and splattered it on the word.

 

I covered the Tree with crackle paste and allowed to dry overnight.  To achieve the colors I misted with three shades of brown then once dry I misted with purples and allowed those to dry.  I used a really light purple paint and dry brushed over.  I painted the leaves and edges in gold

 

 

Here you can see the colors and textures!

 

I also added some fairy lights!

Thanks for stopping by!
