Canvas Corp Creative Crew

Greetings and Happy Valentine's Day to you!

I recently became a member of the Canvas Corp Creative Crew.  One of our first challenges as a team is to create a 4x4 canvas that represents myself.

I'm excited to share with you my creation!

I chose classic, romantic images from the Trousseau and Conservatory collections that capture my spirit as a person. I always give my 2 cents as well as love to create. The bird perched in the heart of the design represents me. Strong, free and watchful over all those things that I love.

I mixed up the strength of metal gears that keep things running with the softness of the cheese cloth along with the romantic flowers (Happy Valentine's Day - hey - it's some flowers right?!) ha!

Thank you for the challenge Canvas Corp, it's a very small canvas but I was able to mix up so many of my favorite things on it and love it!!!

You and Me with a bit of UmWowStudio

Happy Saturday and weekend to you! I have a fun little card to share with you that I recently created for UmWowStudio.

I thought it would be fun to create a mixed media card using a mask, a chipboard tag and some flair.  I've also added in other elements like cheesecloth and hemp for texture and interest

I started by using the Damask mask for my background here with some glass bead gel and let it dry.  I then sprinkled a few different mists on and let them pool up and run together a bit. After that, I took a gold mist and lightly misted all over.

There is a chipboard tag from the soar collection on the right, it's been base coated with gesso, then pearlescent pens rubbed on it to create a variegated effect.

I just love our beautiful Flair and used the "You and Me" from The 2 of Us collection as a sentiment for my card.
