Wow, what a treat! I love those spray colors! I never heard of the Dusty Attic before, I will definitely go check them out! All your mixed media videos are always such an inspiration! I love getting my hands all messy with Gesso! The seed beads and the burlap at the end made such a beautiful perfect finishing touch to this gorgeous scene. Those little birds are perched on top of pieces of wood like that all over the harbor in San Francisco bay, and you really do see fences like that with bits of shells and random seaweed all over the beach in Monterey Bay, California. There is an aquarium there that you must go see one day!
Craftin Kate , sounds like you live in a beautiful area! Would love to visit your city one day! We just recently got a new big Aquarium in Toronto, and it is beautiful too....will have to one day see the one in Monterey Bay! ....Dusty Attic is a well know Laser-cut chipboard company out of Australia (there are links to American companies that carry their product above)....they were one of the first companies to bring out this style of chipboard. xo
this project is wonderful and has inspired me to create something for my daughter and her family who sadly had to move away from the seaside and they miss it oh oh oh much... thak you for posting it for us RUclips cyber folks.. :)
Beautiful Gabrielle I love everything about it. You are so talented thank you for taking the time to do these tutorials for us it's greatly appreciated. Hugs Helen xx
Gabrielle you are extremely creative and talanted I enjoy all your videos every time you do one. A fantastic scene love it thanks for sharing crafting hugs Bridget x 😊
That gel medium product seems to do a great job of holding things in place. I really enjoyed the addition of all the dimensional embellishments. The glass beads really made this project for me. Thanks for this delightful video!
Love, love, love! I catch myself as a beginner saying " Love this, wait, why is she adding so much gesso?" Then I wait another minute and say "That looks fabulous!" These videos are great learning tools for us. Would love to have this as a canvas kit. Maybe just the embellishments and we can get our own canvas. This would save on the shipping expense. Thank you again!
I am new to this wanted to try and your tutorials are the best i love them. I am from Maldives and getting shells will be so easy am going to try a beach theme ... thanks for the inspiration
Absolutely fabulous, Gabrielle! You are such an inspiration. I love your barnacles, and I hope you don't mind if I borrow that idea for my next beach project. You are so good at adding the visual interest and I have learned so much from you. Love the anchor too. TFS your beautiful creations! XOXO
Hi Gabrille Just thought I would let everyone know that when you use your name to get shimmer products that they hear you and with my order they sent me a free product. It's nice to know your name really works. I will be ordering more products because these are so so so beautiful. I can't wait to get started on my Mermaid project. thank you so much for the art Gabrielle.
An absolutely beautiful canvas! Frankly, what you can't do creatively isn't worth knowing.... Your barnacles are soooo cute, as are the star fish. The anchor, oh, pure lushness, a complete work of art on it's own! The amazing thing about watching you is the attention to detail. At around 14.30, I was thinking it was nearing the finish.... Oh No, another 5 mins at least. Non of which are wasted as every touch, addition, highlight goes toward an extraordinary piece as oppose to a great piece. Hope that makes sense. It was a glorious "escape" watching, thank you for sharing & making every step easy to follow/understand. Now, if only talent were passed on through osmosis. Perhaps you could come up with a way? Lol..... C😀
inspiredcaroline24 Caroline, your comment had me smiling all the way through the reading of it, I'm so happy to hear that my tutorials and captions are making sense to people and that they are helping to inspire. I would suggest that you start small if you are a beginner at this and just be brave and go for it....it's just paint mediums right....you can just paint over it again if it's not to your satisfaction :) ...thanks so much for your kind comment! xo
Nice! I really enjoy watching your creativeness. I was expecting some new and cool technique for peeling paint. Had to giggle when I saw you only used a stamp. It works too, I actually though you made the paint peel.
Hello Gabrielle!! It's a wonderful piece of art!! Love ur work and creativity!! Just a quick question:: how do u plan ur projects? Do u go by some theme or pick up any dusty attic chipboard and think to do project where they can fit very well?? You use lot of chipboard cuts in your projects and they work really well.... but they r bit expensive for my pocket..:) thanx for sharing ur work !! Hugs!
Hi Gabrielle, your are amazing!! I just have a very respectful observation: could you please specify what kind of paint are you using? I mean, when I watch your tutorials I never know if you're using acrylic, alcohol, water base paint or ink! I would really appreciate it. THANK YOU! =)
Hi dear, ....I list all the mixed media products I use in the description area under my video. the spritz painters all water base. Most of the time I use Shimmerz Paints, There is a link in the description area as well. Hope this helps! xo
Hi Gabrielle. I am so impressed by your work - really beautful. I've never tried anything like it and am not especially 'arty' but I do like to mess about with crafts. I want to do a book cover for a friend's wedding ceremony. I have bought a blank book with a heavy card cover. Do you think this would be a suitable base for a simple beginners project? Karen
Wow, so beautiful! I'm new to your channel and I'm blown away by your art. Really inspiring. As special as this whole piece is, my favorite thing was when you brought out your home made barnacles... So incredibly cute! All of it is amazing!
angelam perez Hi Angela, barnacles are sort of crustaceans that usually grow in marina's, on docks, on the bottoms of boats etc. (they are the little round thingy's that are made of clay.....I meant for them to look like barnacles :)
Do you ever sell your pieces? I love this and the beach theme would be so pretty in my living room, plus I would be thrilled to,own something made by you!
Maureen Hayes , thanks so much Maureen!.....I think I might dust off my old etsy sight and put some of my pieces up there, I've been asked by a number of you if I sell them lol.....I will for sure post something about it once I have them up....thanks for your interest! xo
Luz Gonzalez , I do kits for The Scrapbook Diaries (these however, are scrapbook page kits, not canvas's, I have spoken to the owner about doing a canvas design that she can make into a kit though) If you are interested in trying out some mixed media scrapbook page designs, (the kits have everything in them from papers, mixed media product, embellishments etc. plus a full video tutorial by me, on a private setting)....you can find some here www.thescrapbookdiaries.com/product-tag/gabi-active/
Hi Gabrielle I ordered a load of shimmer products and mentioned your name but have not heard anything from the owner. I sent her a email but have not heard back.

Different music? It suits the summer/ beach theme well :-) , but I was a little surprised when I heard it. =-O .
Hi from France..
Very beautifull
It's awesome. Can I make this with acrylic colours? Is it possible?

Hi Ms Gabrielle, I was wondering could I use these products on wood to create something similar to remember a recent trip to the beach?
So beautiful! You're an amazing artist!★
Voce é a melhor. Bj sua fã brasileira. Katia.
Lovely
