Crafty Ribbons Tawny Orange Wreath

Good morning everyone, hope you are well. I am here today with a wreath I made using some of the gorgeous Jam pot ribbons from Crafty Ribbons. Super easy to make, relaxing to create and make lovely little gifts or inexpensive decor to switch round in your space.
I cut lengths of the ribbon and then tied it around the polystyrene ring. Its useful to have some clear nail varnish to hand to prevent the ribbon from fraying.

Thank you for looking, have a lovely day!

Alkaline Trio lyrics mixed media canvas

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.

Alkaline Trio Trouble Breathing LED canvas

A mixed media piece created with cool white LED lights in the reverse of the canvas, acrylic paints, wooden stars and pierced clusters of stars using a needle amongst lyrics on canvas card stock and a shrink plastic heartskull.

Alkaline Trio Vintage Mirror

I bought a plain white plastic mirror and wanted to create a gothic style mirror with it. I bought a faux gold necklace and painted the pieces and the mirror black and added pastes to make it look like a vintage piece. I glued these embellishments and the heartskull shrink plastic embellishment at the top of the mirror.

Alkaline Trio Papercut Shadow box

I made myself a paper cut light box with some of my favourite things as a theme. I cut out layers and layers of blank paper into the shapes of butterflies, heartskulls, decor accents and placed them on 3D foam layers so when the light shined behind all you could see was the design I wanted to show. I chose remote control coloured LEDs and created inside a wooden box I decorated with napkin decoupage to go with the decor in my room. I added a sheet of glass to protect the delicate art.









Alkaline Trio Vintage Nose over Tail frame

I created the design, cut carefully and placed on hessian fabric with 3D foam pads to add dimension to the box frame.

Alkaline Trio Broken Wing Plimsolls

I decided to create some trio plimsolls for myself. The front of the plimsoll had plastic ends so I painted with nail varnish, one side a large heartskull, the other sparkly black. I added a shrink plastic heartskull on the opposite side, with polka dot design behind.
I handwrote lyrics from Broken wing on each shoe.
