#14 Wall Hanging – Tic, Tac, Toe

 Welcome to our October Challenge.

Our theme for this month is Wall Hangings.

If you don't fancy a wall hanging we have a Tic, Tac, Toe board for you to choose from. If you want to do the wall hanging, it's the centre square, then you do NOT need to do the squares either side of it, unless you fancy challenging yourself even further. Or you could pick any of the lines around the outside and miss out the wall hanging altogether. If you use the Tic, Tac, Toe, please tell us in your post which line you have used.

 

Our host is Lula, and she will be choosing our Winner and Top 5.

 

We are thrilled to be sponsored by

 Hello

I am Mayoori, living in beautiful state of Washington, with my two teenage daughters and very supportive husband. I have been crafting for years but plunged into scrapbooking after coming to USA 3 years back . Now I am totally involved in it and have recently dived into the deep ocean of mixed media.

Hope you will like this little piece of altered art.

Thank you The Mirror Crack’d for giving me this opportunity.

This month I have chosen to make a Wall-hanging using the new Graphics 45 Rare Oddities papers which fits in with the Tic Tac Toe quite well. I have chosen the top line: Halloween, Black and It Flies. Instructions for making are on my Blog.

I decided to use the Tic Tac Toe grid, I followed the middle line, Time, Wall Hanging, Texture. I used an IKEA Malma mirror as the base. Every time I look in the mirror I am aware how Time is passing and so many Textures are developing!!!!

For this challenge I have made a colourful little wall hanging. Although all of the elements of the Tic Tac Toe are things that normally I would love to incorporate into my project I decided in a departure from my usual style to keep it simple.

Wall hanging made using a flat canvas panel, wooden frame, wooden embellishments and a plastic glitter spider. Black gesso was applied to the whole project. Webbing and word elements  were colored with Inka Gold metallic paints in orange and violet. Hot glue to make the webbing on the background. Plastic glitter spider adhered using hot glue bought from my local dollar store.

I have made a wall hanging from a box canvas, and used time and texture as my theme.

My wall hanging is a tribute to my lovely Mum. I used three MDF hearts from a set of six and decorated them mainly in pink and white. Details on my blog

Esther

I just used the middle square from the Tic Tac Toe board and made a wall hanging by painting a wooden plaque with acrylics before adding die cuts, stamping, tissue paper, texture paste and of course the quotation stamped on pieces of canvas.
