Home decor canvas

Hello !

I have an altered canvas to show you today. I created this one few weeks ago as a birthday gift for a friend.


I used a lot of products here :

- 12x12 canvas
- white air dry clay
- Wilton molds
- gesso (Liquitex)
- modeling paste (Liquitex
- paper flowers (Prima Marketing, I Am Roses)
- metal embellishments
- lace (Hobby Lobby)
- stencils (Crafter's Workshop)
- acrylic stamps (Prima Marketing)
- old book pages
- Black Sooth distress ink (Ranger)
- Chipboard alphas (Prima Marketing)

Take a closer look...

Can you spot the leaves and the flowers under the metal flowers ? I made them with the air dry clay and some Wilton molds (I know they are made for baking, so what ?)...


I applied gesso on all the embellishments and misted them before adhering them to the canvas. I applied more mists after the adhering process too.
Take a closer look to the stenciling and stamping work...



I hope you like it ! I loved the process and I'm ready to make more of these...

See you soon !

Invitation cards with mists

Hi !

We will have a pajama party this week end, and I made the invitation for it in a snap ! I cut the word "invitation" into cardboard to make a mask and sprayed Bahama Blue and Fully Purple glimmer mists over it on a white card by Canvas Corp :


I sprayed the same ink on the envelopes to create a matching set. Et Voila ! I have personalized invitation for my daughter...

See you soon for another project !

DCWV altered phone case

Hello !

Yes, my daughter had another broken phone case. And yes, that's a new goodie for me to play with... A small piece was missing on the top, I have just re-create it with paper. I choose the Marquee Premium stack by DCWV to cover the phone case :


Using Mod Podge, I glued the star paper over the case, and trimmed the excess once dried. I cut the honeycomb paper by letting peek-through holes to see the star paper, and added some matted words and arrow from the same stack. At the end, I applied a coat of Mod Podge all over the case.

Altering phone case is a very fun thing to do. I maybe will order blank case to play with more, because we don't have broken cases anymore...

I hope you like it !
See you soon...
