This is my entry for two challenges this week - the Mixed Media Monday theme is "Gold" and the Wednesday Stamper theme is "Words" so I have combined the two in this piece.It is a small canvas board which has been painted black and then covered in black lace strips. I've added a walnut ink stained shipping tag that has been stamped (mostly Oxford Impressions and one from Lost Aussie Designs) and stitched. The whole thing has then been coated in beeswax which holds the dried fern leaf and tiny dried flower in place. It has then been sprayed lightly with Moon Shadow Mist in Medieval Gold and dry brushed with Lumiere Sunset Gold, emphasizing the canvas edges. There is a small metal spiral pushed into the wax over the tag hole. Because the canvas is my "ode" to Paris I have used the word "dream" to finish it off (I can but dream of Paris!).

The fern leaf looks amazing! Great canvas Debbi :-)
Gorgeous! You use the most amazing techniques - beeswax to hold the fern in place, just brilliant.
Beautiful, love the textures.
Gorgeous piece!
Hi Debbi!! I had a little call for people to recommend an artist to profile and someone named Viola, whom I had not heard of. So I visited her blog and was convinced my readers would love to meet her and see her art. I had no idea you knew her!! Small world!
I love your newest! Gold is my very fav colour and you have given it life!!! Amazing work on such a small canvas Debbi! xoxo Carol
