"Peace" winter decor/frame

Ebrush Design Team: Mitsyana Wright  Week 5 Cycle 1

This is such a creative and lovely piece of Home Decor! I love the music notes on the sweet bird!  I would love this in my home! Way to go Mitsyana!

Hello Crafty Friends... I'm back again with some winter home decor made using my eBrush. I chose to incorporate the word "Peace" into my decor because who couldn't use a little more peace in their life?

Supplies I used for this project:

Picture Frame (12"x5")

eBrush with SN adapter head

Spectrum Noir Markers ( TB2, TB5, IG2, IG3, TN7, & TN8)

Teressa Collins Embossing Folder (Woodgrain Cottage)

Sizzix Sparrow Die

Marvy Uchida Jumbo Snowflake Punch

Electric Die cutter

Personal Manual Die Cut Machine

Scissors

Craft Knife

Gesso

Stickles (Crystal)

Chipboard

Patterned Paper/Cardstock

Craft Cardstock

Glue or Adhesive

I first started by taking the mat that came with my frame out. I then used it as a template.

I layed it on my chipboard and used a craft knife to make a shape of the exact shape and size to fit my frame. 

I then adhered my patterned paper to the chip board and again trimmed with with my craft knife. I prepared this as my background and set aside.

Next I cut my bird. For this songbird I used a Sizzix sparrow die and cut out 2 birds, one from a song sheet paper and the other from chipboard. I layered the two and glued together. Then with my Ebrush I airbrushed the bird using the SN adapter head with Spectrum Noir markers in IG2, IG3,TB2, and TB5. Then I drew highlights using my white gel pen.

I freehand cut out a branch from craft paper and then ebrushed it using Spectrum Noir markers in TN7 and TN8. Then I embossed the branch using my Teressa Collins Woodgrain Cottage embossing folder. I also added crystal stickles over brushed on gesso for snow.

I cut out 3 snowflakes using my Marvy Uchida jumbo snowflake punch and highlighted them using my Spectrum Noir marker in TB2.

Using my electric die cut machine I used the free font Buffalo Nickel to cut the word peace out of printed card stock. I then ebrushed it using my Spectrum Noir markers in TB2 and TB5. I also made a shadow for my word it using a charcoal gray paper and adhered both word and shadow together. Then I glued all my individual pieces onto my prepared chipboard background from earlier.

Tah-dah... Beautiful winter decor!

Hope you enjoyed this project!

And, here's wishing you "Peace" for this holiday season!!
