Its Sunday and time for the new challenge at One Stitch at a Time Challenge blog and this week we have a fantastic opportunity for you! To celebrate our ad in Papercraft Inspirations magazine we are starting our 'Pretty in Print' competition offering you the opportunity to see your creation in print in our advert! How exciting-you could be published in a major UK magazine! :-) The rules and details are in the badge above and you can use this on your sidebar to remind you to enter every week!

For this project I used Digi 'Altered Alice' by June (available at Stitchy Bear digi store) Papermania papers, Distress inks, Wooden butterfly embellishment, Button, Ribbon and Tim Holtz adage ticket.
I started by distressing the card with tea stain ink, I used a paint brush inked from the distress ink pad to distress around the digi to make the project look aged. I mounted her onto blue paper I had distressed and then brown card. I then mounted this on the card covered in cream distressed paper. I used strips of the backing paper, folded and stuck together with a button on top as a flower in the top corner of the digi, and adage ticket in the opposite bottom corner. Then I added a polka dot ribbon along the edge and embellished with a wooden butterfly.

While you are here please enter my blog candy in the post below-also found by clicking on the 'blog candy' photo on my sidebar-and good luck! :-)

Crafty Ribbons/Fiskars LED canvas

By sparklingblackrose
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well. I am here to share a backlit canvas using my Fiskars tools in a rather unusual way. I took the canvas off from the frame and folded it in half to randomly punch across the front of the canvas. I kept the cuttings for later. I then stapled the canvas back onto the frame. Next I stapled muslin fabric across the front of the canvas. I then added Clermont Cotton Lace across the bottom of the canvas as a border. I then got out my flexmarkers and coloured the punched canvas pieces in three complimentary colours. I then asked tiny gems to the centre of each and glued them randomly like flowers across the muslin fabric.

Thank you for visiting and for all your lovely comments!

Alkaline Trio lyrics mixed media canvas

By sparklingblackrose
I am here to show you a canvas I created using printable cotton, cotton batting, plastic vintage style frame, acrylic paints, die cut foam, metal embellishments, glitters, texture pastes and nail caviar. The lyric fabric I created in a craft program then printed onto cotton, and placed in the frame after I had stuffed the frame with cotton batting.
