Hey there gang and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Yes, 2015 is upon us! Let's make it a scrappy happy year :-)

It's Brandi here today to show a beautiful new kit as well as a mixed media canvas I made with it!
Here's a look at the kit:

This kit features Prima's "Romance Novel- Chapter 2" as well as goodies from Fabscraps, Petaloo, and much more!

I used the canvas from the kit to create a small wall hanging for a close friend. Here's a look:

I just LOVE the colors and papers here... Absolutely LOVE!!!!! I included a brief tutorial on making this as well :-)

Capture the Moment

Wednesday, June 18, 2014

Hi everyone, I'm using the newest kit, Capture the Moment on a canvas today, and what fun I had using everything!

I used the paper to edge my canvas and ripped a strip to use as the "table cloth" for my stacked coffee cups. Using a little bit of the Ranger's Liquid Pearls to add some embellishment to the corners of the canvas is an excellent way to finish off a piece.

I took the flowers and glued them onto the ends of delicate branches letting them float across the bottom of the painting. You need an extra strong glue like Helmar's 450 in order to be able to achieve this effect properly.

The kit comes with some delightful script printed ribbon which I tied onto my branch. ( TIP: I use a light bulb to straighten out my ribbon by "ironing" it. I do this by lightly rubbing the ribbon back and forth against the heated bulb. )
