Home Sweet Home

February 15, 2015October 9, 20151 Comment

A quick share today to show you the Mini Album I made using Clear Scraps New Mixable Home Album.

My “Home Sweet Home” album is a 8″ x 9″ Acrylic & Chipboard mixed Album.

I used chipboard stickers from My Mind’s Eye “Sweetest Thing” collection and various scrapbook papers

to decorate my album.

My favorite part of the album is the fence.

I love the look of a white picket fence so I sprayed the clear acrylic with white spray

paint. Now I have a white picket fence.

I’m so excited to finally let you know that I’m now part of

Canvas Corp Brands New Creative Crew.

So many wonderful brands to work with… Canvas Corp Home Basics, Tattered Angels and 7 Gypsies.

I can’t wait to dive right in.

One of our first challenges as a crew was to make a 4 x 4 canvas that represents our style.

Here’s mine…. clean, simple with a shabby vintage feel.

Don’t Forget to SMILE Today!

A fun little project to brighten your day.

Along with the Art Play Paintables that I used for the ADORNit Blog Hog,

I also received some great wood pieces, a pad of Blender Basics and some fun Art Play Prints.

To make the project:

Paint the edges of the wood pieces with black acrylic paint.
Glue paper from the Blender Basics pad onto the wood pieces using Mono Adhesive glue.
Trim around the shapes with a craft knife and lightly sand the edges with a sanding block.
Distress the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Ink Applicator.
Glue the two pieces together.
Cut around the inner circle from the “Smile” Art Play Prints and glue to the center.

Have a great day and don’t forget to SMILE!

Embossing Clear Scraps Clear Shapes for Layouts and Cards

July 23, 2014October 9, 2015Leave a comment

Did you know that you can emboss Clear Scraps Clear Shapes? (I didn’t until recently.)

For my “Vintage Sisters” layout and “Smile” card, I started with a Clear Shape Flower.

To make the Flower:

I used my Big Shot and a Swiss Dot Embossing Plate to emboss my flower.
I dabbed Antique Linen Distress Paint on the front of the flower (raised dot) and Victorian Velvet Distress Paint on the back side of my flower.
