Alkaline Trio Wooden Treasure Chest

By sparklingblackrose
















Hey everyone, hope you are well. I am here with a gift I made for my friend Nicola. Its a wooden chest with padded lyric printed fabric top. I started with the fabric. I used printable cotton, made a design with various trio lyrics and embellishments and printed it. I then found a plastic vintage frame and glued it onto the top.
I made a raised pattern around the frame with texture pastes and added wooden embellishments in each corner. I then painted it all with black, then varnished and sealed with hard coat mod podge.
Then I got out some cotton batting you use in quilts and padded inside the frame. Lastly I placed the fabric inside.
Thank you for visiting, hope you have a good day! :)

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.
