Inspirational Flower Garden Canvas

Hi friends! Linsey here today sharing my latest Craftwell project--an inspiring canvas that will be wonderful anywhere it is placed. This wall art makes a lovely home décor piece and would be great for a dorm room or craft space too!
Once again, I used the SNAP Machine, which is fast becoming my new favorite crafting tool. This little guy works just like the original Cut'n'Boss Electric Embosser and Die Cutter, only it's smaller and it packs a whole lotta punch! No manual labor here--just happy, hands-free electronic embossing and die cutting. What could be better?
I first cut all my felt pieces, then arranged them onto a 10x10" stretched canvas covered with a wood grain patterned paper. The large flowers each have a clear sentiment sticker placed in the center. The smaller flowers have button centers with hemp string tied into double bows.
I wanted to experiment with the Teresa Collins Honeycomb Project Die and see if it would work as a chicken wire-type fence for my scene....I think it was a success! I cut thin cardboard (cereal/snack box) material with the Honeycomb Die 3 times, then did the same with a coordinating pattern paper. I then covered each piece of cut cardboard with a piece of cut pattern paper, creating a bit more dimension and interest. Finally, I placed along the bottom portion of the canvas to form my chicken wire fence for my inspirational flower garden!
And that's all for me, folks! Thanks so much for stopping by to visit today! I've enjoyed sharing my project with you and I hope you've been inspired in some way to make a fabulous creation of your own with awesome Craftwell products! Until next time, many blessings and happy crafting!

DT: Alejandra's Clip Board

Hi,

This is Veronica from vicky's scrapping passion, sharing with you my next post for Craftwell. 

For this post, I got inspired by the latest mixed media kit from Paper Wishes and decided to use some pictures from my daughter's (Alejandra) academic showcase from last year. I even included the reckless she made for this Egyptian themed showcase as embellishment. The resist paper included in this kit was a perfect starting point for me to use the eBrush system.




In short: I added the 2way clear stickers to the embossed gold paper and added the foil pieces to it. I removed the excess using a brush. Then, I cut the shapes out.






I sprayed the resist paper using the eBrush and first with a diluted watercolor solution and then with Spectrum Noir markers (included in the eBrush kit):


Using the siphon kit.


Using the market



The result.

Then I cut and teared some pieces of printed argile paper and the sprayed resist specialty paper. Added them to the included clip board and added my daughter's name using Versa Mark and Egyptian Gold embossing podwer:




Once heat embossed. I added the neckless and the included charms using 3D zots. I trimmed the pictures and made a kind of pocket with one to insert the other two forming kind of a pyramid in the top:



I matted one of the pictures to make it my primary one.

At the end, I added some numbers cut out with the TC dies on glitter paper and one of the silver tags from the kit. Everything was distress before gluing down using the included Color Box metallic inks.

Some closer looks:

Many blessings

"Life is Good" Wall Art Decor by Karen Jiles



Hi there,

It’s Karen, sharing this “Life Is Good” Wall Art Décor created with the “So In Love” embossing folder and the Cut N Boss machine. I coordinated the embossing folder with a sanding bar to expose the deep embossed impressions of the hearts in the folder. I also added a bling layer, flower and die cut from the Lovers’ Lane Pocket Dies Collection. The “Life is Good” Wall Art Décor measures 6 x6.  I’m adding a tutorial below.
Supplies:



Wall Panel

Pink White Core Cardstock

Bling Adhesive Sheet

Sanding Bar

Beaded Bottle Cap

Gesso

Flower

Antique Gem Pins

Hemp

Silver Paint

Trimmer

Mini Attacher





 Step 1: Place full sheet of cardstock into the “So In Love” embossing folder. Close the folder and insert into Cut N Boss by Craftwell. 




Step 2: Remove the embossed cardstock from the Cut N Boss and the embossing folder and trim it down to layering size for your panel. 


Step 3: Sand the embossed cardstock with sanding bar to expose the white core.

Step 4: Cut bling sheet down to laying size and adhere to panel. Layer the embossed cardstock onto the bling sheet. Set aside.


Step 5: Attach flower layers together with Mini Attacher and apply gesso to flower using a foam brush. Let dry.



Step 6: Adhere beaded bottle cap to center of flower and adhere flower to the wood panel.


Step 7: Die cut the “Life is Good” sentiment from the Lover’s Lane Pocket Die Set using the Cut N Boss machine. 

Step 8: Adhere sentiment to the wooden panel and add hemp to the flower. Continue embellish as desired. 


Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope that this Wall Art Décor has inspired you!

revisiting!!! Amazing Home Decor Project by Peggy Oliver

Hi! Peggy here, today I made a wooden decor item. 
Supplies used today are 
Wood platform
Vinyl 

I started with a thin piece of discarded wood roughly 12x11. I layered a thick coating of thick white gesso with a large acrylic paint brush. I was able to create lines that simulated grain.
Next I used two colors of fluid acrylic (titanium white and carbon black)  I randomly used my paint brush as well as my eBrush to create this worn fence or board look with the grain and direction completely different than the original piece of wood.  I used my siphon with my eBrush to spray diluted paint with water to my wood piece in white to tone down the look.
I let the layer dry. I painted the lines across to separate what looks like boards and added marks where rusted nails may have been.

I used my cutting machine to cut out this saying in Vinyl and placed it in the center of my board using transfer paper.




Check out this machine!! Christmas must have for any crafter. The possibilities are endless with the siphon adaptor you can use paint or ink to spray to your heart's content or just use the adaptors that come with your machine and use your markers that you already have.
