Family canvas

This is a family canvas I made for my friend Donna. I used a white canvas and Tim Holz alcohol inks. I simply dropped the inks on the canvas and let them spread or drip. It made the coolest designs.  

I added a clear quote to a piece of scalloped chipboard that I inked to match the colors of the canvas. 

I placed ribbon along the bottom and added coordinating flowers. I then placed 

vintage buttons on the canvas. 

I placed the the picture off center so I filled up the empty space with an inked chipboard swirl. 

2 of a kind

This is my Two of a Kind Page. This is one of my favorite pictures of my kids.

I used a stencil of chicken wire and sprayed the upper right hand corner of the page. I think it really 

off sets the page.

 I then used silver paint and painted behind where the picture will be placed. I then matted the picture on a torn edge matted and  inked it in black. 

Before I adhered the picture, I used different washi tape on the page and placed the matted picture on top of it. I cut out some Spellbinder swirls and added the flowers at both corners. 

I used Thickers to write out my "Two of a Kind"

Baby card

This is a baby shower card I made for a friend of mine. The die cut stroller comes from Heartfelt Creations. Heartfelt Creations has some really beautiful things. I simply cut this out and and glued it to the card. 

I took some fibers & lace and wrapped it around the card. 

I  then took a wire ring and used letters to spell out the baby's name Aiden.

Rose and lime green card

I just love this color combination. It is rose and lime green. I used a stencil template to cut out the bracket edge of the card and stamped it with rose colored ink. Then added a piece of  rose and green patterned paper. I added green ribbon going across the bottom and added rick rack on top.

I finished it off by taking a lime green piece of card stock and running it through and embossing folder for texture. I then added the flower with a pearl center. 

Map card

I love recycling things into my crafting. This card is used by using a piece of a map that I had laying around. The other part of the card at the top left hand side is a page torn out of a dictionary. I just pieced them together and inked in each corner. Stamped the man on the bike. Then stamped the wording on a hand torn page of the dictionary.

And for the final touched added washi tape with wording and a flower with a button for the center. 

Sunshine Canvas

This is a canvas I made using Art Anthology sprays and dimensional paints. These paints are so fun and versatile to work with!

I first used a stencil and spritzed the Art Anthology coloration spray. Then I painted the grass with a wide brush and spread some lighter yellow behind the flower. I painted petals on the canvas and painted the fabric flower to give it more color and dimension.  I adhered the flower to the canvas and added a vintage button to the center. 

The letters are made from grunge board and spritzed with the Art Anthology coloration spray. 

The leaves and stem are made from ribbon.

                                     The final touch is the lady bugs! The lady bugs are buttons.

Moon Canvas

This is a canvas I painted using Art Anthology paints. If you have not used these paints before you are missing out. The colors are so vibrant and easy to work with.  I highly recommend them!
