Crafty Sentiments Designs GDT 'Spots or Stripes'

Image
By sparklingblackrose

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well :-)
Here I am with my first Guest design project for May for Crafty Sentiments, whose theme is 'Spots or Stripes'. I was given a fabulous digi by Crafty Sentiments that was perfect for the challenge! I coloured him with Promarkers and Flexmarkers and cut round him with a circle nestie. I used Sarah Hurley polka dot papers, Dovecraft polka dot buttons, Happy Birthday sentiment, American Crafts Ribbon and Lace, and a Vintage button from my stash. I wanted to make a focal point of the buttons and I think I managed this quite well!

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Bunny Zoes Crafts: Ribbon or Twine
Dis Digi Designs: Animal Friends
Little Claires Designs: Doing the Rounds
Cute Card Thursdays: Animals

Thank you for looking and for your lovely comments :-)

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.
