We are going to a wedding in Aug for a woman who loves my paintings.....so of course an easy gift would be to make her one for her wedding gift. I took the idea from her invitation and then made the stencil with the Terraskin cut it out and sprayed the background on the canvas with a Royal Blue and after 3 coats and when it dried, I layed down the chandelier template and sprayed it with a Baby Blue. It turned out wonderful and I will hand paint in their names and the date on the bottom. I used my Sabotaz paints which have amazing coverage but had to do this outdoors as it smells. It will have to cure for at least 24hours and then I will add some bling.....not sure at this point whether it will be glitter or sequins but not gold leaf this time. Updates to follow
Here is the invitation
Here is the design which is not exact because it is a little complex for the stencil cutting

This is final version after the background has been completely painted and then the stencil layed on top and spray painted Baby Blue
This is the stencil after spraying. I am hoping that I can do at least 20 to 30 with this template. The Terraskin holds up very well with paint and does not buckle.
So I did notice only after the painting through the stencil that there were a couple of areas that could use some touch up and that were off just a bit but nothing my trusty exacto knife can't handle for the stencil and a little bit of paint on the canvas.
Next to do is add names and dates and bling
