Create, Imagine, Believe 4" home decor canvas .... Hi Craft addicts! Today's make is something different as I am trying to make use of all my crafty stash..... I had great fun making this wall hanging and will hopefully be doing more. How I made this project:- I used a 4" pre-prepared canvas (from Quantum Arts) and first of all placed the Lattice pattern Lamination Plus stencil (from Stamps by Me) and dabbed through it using Blue Parakeet, Lavender Blue and Pink Thistle Opal Polishes from Cosmic Shimmer. I moved the stencil around several times to get different effects and let it dry. I then used the Americana Inspiration stencil to add the different words - Create, Believe and Imagine - I used a sponge to dab through them with the Gina K Amalgam Black ink. I edged the canvas with some red Prism Inks that was left on one of my daubers. As the canvas is a bit squishy, some of the words were a bit "faded" so I added some Black Onyx Nuvo dr...

Mermaid Canvas with textured background and Congratulations Bird A6 card Hi Craft addicts! As I have missed a couple of days posting anything, I thought I would show you two totally different things I have made for the 100 Day Challenge.... Mermaid stamp on 4" Canvas..  How I decorated the canvas:- I took a 4" white stretched canvas (Student Art) and covered it several times with Blue, Green and black Radiance Paints from Stamps Away - must admit I have had them for ages and didn't think they would be usable but had no trouble with them at all! Whilst the paint was still wait, I added more to the canvas, this time with the straight edge of a paintbrush raising it slightly to give it some texture. I then left it to dry overnight. I had one of these Mermaids already cut out (from Time For Tea stamp set) and thought it would go really well with it and attached it to the canvas with the relevant glue. I haven't added any cord or ribbon but will at a lat...

Lilac flowers (Redoute image) canvas 4" wall hanging -  Day 133 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So once again, I have used one of the really pretty lilac topper sheets from the " Les Belles Fleur " b y Redoute Card Popper pad that Creative Crafting World produced recently to make this pretty canvas wall hanging.   I also have made a card using this image which would go really well with it!   I first of all coloured the canvas using some Cosmic Shimmer Colour Cloud Blending inks ( Decadent Denim and Chic Aubergine) and let to settle overnight.  I then cut the topper to fit the shaped background (from a Crafter's Companion die) I had in black cardstock and glued the two together. Once I knew that the canvas was dry, I stuck the bright blue ribbon to it using a strong glue and then attached the main topper on top of it. I also added some clear Nuvo Crystal drops around the border and again allowed them to dry overni...

Elephant 4"stretch canvas - Day 77 of my 366 day challenge

Elephant 4"stretch canvas -  Day 77 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So for today's post, I have made this elephant themed canvas which I thought was quite fun! I first of all took a 4" (100mm) square canvas - this has been pretreated but I decided I wanted it in another colour so used Ivory Nuvo acrylic paint and covered it in a couple of coats allowing it to dry between each. I then cut out the Adorable elephants from Tonic Studios in black cardstock (I will use the smaller one in another project).  I also cut the border strip in Kraft coloured paper/card from the Pearl Borders Essential die collection from Tattered Lace. I also cut out the pink panel using my Brother Scan n Cu t (am getting slightly more adventurous now) Once the paint was dry, I stuck the pink panel on to it in the middle of it and then placed the Kraft border on top of it. I cut off the excess parts so it fitted. For the little elephant in the corner, I stampe...
