OSAAT Red, White and Blue

By sparklingblackrose
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well :-) Here I am with my DT card for One Stitch at a Time this week and I was given this fab digi from Stitchy at Stitchy Bear digi store so it was perfect for this challenge!
I thought I would aim for a male card as they are so difficult to make and the subject suited them!
I used Papermania Burleigh Blue papers with Sarah Hurley polka dot papers, then cut round the digi with a nestie. I then added Red and Blue Card Candy and a Happy Birthday dome greeting.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
The Crafty Pad: Colours of your Country's Flag
2 Sisters Challenge: Boys
Craft Your Days Away: Red, White and Blue
Little Claires Designs: Male
Chocolate, Coffee and Cards: For the Boys
Crafty Catz Challenges: Male cards
Fairytale Challenge: Boys and Men
Glitter Geeks: Jubilee
Stamping with the Dragon: Male Birthday

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.
