I have video tutorial down below for your convenience.

If you have the Mixed Media KitMixed Media Kit we will be using the canvas, stencil and the modeling paste that come inside the Mixed Media KitMixed Media Kit. 

Place the stencil on top of the canvas and spread the modeling paste on the stencil, as shown below. 

Once you are done spreading the modeling paste take off the stencil and wash the stencil right away. Set the canvas aside to dry for a few hours or you can use the heat tool but be sure to lightly dry the canvas do not get the heat tool close to the modeling paste or it will melt the paste. 

After your canvas dries place some of the finnabair carmine paint on top of the canvas and spray with water so the paint runs and easy to spread around with the brush. You can also dab with paper towels.

below you can see the carmine paint and I used paper towels to blot. Next I added some of the Ochre to the canvas and spritzed some water on it and spread around around. 

Here is what the finished canvased look like after I dabbed with paper towels. Let dry or you can lightly dry with the heat tool. 

I fussy cut the large butterfly out from the Scrapbooking Kit, the paper collection is by Uniquely Creative. Adhere the butterfly to the canvas. I did fussy cut out the extra flowers and adhered some on the bottom. 

I adhered down the word DREAM using the letters from the ephemera pack in the Scrapbooking Kit ephemera pack in the Scrapbooking Kit. I then cut out some flowers from the 2nd 12x12 pattern paper with the large butterfly from the paper pack. 

I placed foam tape on the back of the flowers. 

Adhere the flowers down. I think this gives the flowers a nice 3D look. 

Here is the finial Butterfly Canvas . I added one of the little round stickers in the right hand corner from the sticker sheet that comes in the Scrapbooking Kit. I like the simplicity and elegance of  this canvas. It really comes together quick and makes an excellent home decor in a hallway or bathroom or bedroom wall. Would make a nice gift for a friend.

I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial. I had a great time using both the June 2024 Mixed Media Kit  and  June 2024 Scrapbooking Kit to create this beautiful and colorful Butterfly Canvas for you all.  For more details you can always view the video tutorial process, which is at the top of the page.

Mother's Day Shimmer Vintage Tags

Good Day My Crafting Friends, 

I hope you all had a great Easter weekend with family and friends. Now that spring is here and we have celebrated Easter we now move into Mother's Day mode, right. This year hubby and I decided to have our Christmas stay up and decorate it for each holiday. We have done Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day and Easter it has been fun to see what we come up with for each holiday. For Mother's Day I saw how someone had decorated their tree with photo's of all the Mom's in their family and I thought that would be a great idea. So this project I will be decorating the Tags from the April 2024 Mixed Media Kit along with using some items from the April 2024 Card, Tag and More Kit. 

For more details on how I created these beautiful Mother's Day Tag you can view the process video below. 

    April 2024 Card, Tag and More Kit                           April 2024 Mixed Media Kit

             

To begin I traced all three of the large chipboard tags from the Mixed Media Kit onto the canvas and cut them all out.  

Next I sprinkled the cosmic shimmer shaker colors over the canvas and then sprayed some water on top. The water will allow the shimmer to activate to create a watercolor effect. 

Keep sprinkling the powder on the canvas and spray water when you need to get the desired look you want. Here is my first tag done. When you are finished let the canvas dry for at least a few hours before adhering to the chipboard. 

Here is another way to apply the cosmic shimmer shakers to the canvas resist. Place some water down and sprinkle in the water and mix and apply with a small paint brush as you see below. You can still spray with water in areas you would like to blend or you can blend with your brush. 

Here is the 3rd tag I created using the paint brush method. The canvas is so fun and turned out so cool I love them. 

For all three tags I used the photo inserts from the Card, Tags and More Kit and adhered them to the middle of the tag. Be sure to add double back tape to the back of the photo insert to secure it to the tag.  I will be adding photos to them. Next I also used the ephemera from the Card Kit to decorate the tag. 

Here are the finished tags. I placed photos of all three of my daughters with their kids. I just love how these turned out. with the canvas background and using the beautiful Couture Creations ephemera from the Card Kit they turned out beautiful. I also used the Say it with Crystals. The lace and ribbons are from my stash. 

I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial. For more details you can always view the video tutorial process, which is at the top of the page.

Adventure Is Waiting Canvas

 Good Moring everyone, 

So good to be here with y'all again. Today I have a really fun and quick project for you using the March 2024 Mixed Media Kit from Tres Jolie. This canvas was so quick to create and so fun. I love using the mixed media kit along with other items from the Card, Tag and More Kit and Scrapbooking Kit. I know you are going to love this fun quick project. 

As always I have a step by step tutorial for you sharing the video process along with some photos below for your convenience. 

Here is what I used to create this canvas

Mixed Media Kit                                          Card, Tag and More Kit    used frame                                                      

      

                                                                       Scrapbooking Kit used chipboard key, the natural flowers, and cloches

To start I used the Stamperia Glamour Gel first. Just brushing it on over the canvas. Next I took the TCW Seafoam Stencil Butter along with the Creative Expressions Slimline Stencil from the February Mixed Media Kit and applied the butter in different areas of the canvas. 

Make sure the stencil butter is dry as it will smear, just a tip as mine smeared a bit. Next I applied the LindysGang Magical bayou boogie gold around the canvas and wiping it around. Set aside to dry 

I cut out the one of the clocks from the rice paper and adhered to chipboard circle to place inside the pocket watch. 

I then cut another clock from the rice paper and adhered on top of the previous clock and placed the clock inside. 

For this part use the chipboard frame from the Card, Tag and More Kit and place glue to the oval which is the center of the frame. Then place behind the lady and burnish down. 

Grab the frame and place over the oval until it fits.

Next turn over and add a bit of water to a towel and rub some water around the rice paper and tear off. 

Take the frame off and add glue to the inside center of the frame and place frame back on the oval piece. This will keep the frame on the rice paper. 

Next I took the Glamour Gel and brushed over the frame and key. 

I used the Magical bayou boogie gold powder put some down and added a bit of water, just a drop of two as you want it little dark. I then brushed on the frame in certain areas and some over the image to create a rust look on the edges. I did the same with the chipboard key from the scrapbook kit. 

I added everything together on the canvas. I did back up the words with chipboard, you can view the video tutorial as it will show all whole process from beginning to end. 

Thank you all for joining me today I hope you liked today's mixed media project. It was so fun to create this canvas and play around with the items inside this Mixed Media Kit. 

I have links throughout the post here and above showing the kits. 

Have a great day and Happy Crafting.

Bohemian Heart Mixed Media Canvas

 Good Morning everyone,

I am back with another beautiful canvas project for Tres Jolie using the January Mixed Media Kit. I also included the January Scrapbook Kit as well, along with a few other items. I have all the links down below for all the items I used for this project. I really like how this canvas turned out. I hope you enjoy the step by step tutorial below and video tutorial. 

Here are the supplies I used for this canvas - Mixed Media January 2024 Kit. I also used the January Scrapbook kit 2024 along with the flowers from the October Scrapbook Kit 2023 and the Chipboard Natural Flower Set 1 and the Butterfly from the CardMaking Kit 2024. 

*****To check these products out simply click on the name to go to the shop. *****

So let's get started. The fist thing is to apply Modpodge to the canvas. 

Place the Stamperia rice paper on top of the canvas and burnish down 

Flip the canvas over and take a paper town with a bit of water on it. Go around the canvas with wet paper towel and pull the excess rice paper away from the edges. 

You can also use away any excess paper.

Next I used the distress vintage photo ink and inked the doily from the Scrapbook Kit 2024. Afterward I used a script stamp from my stash to stamp on the side of the doily. 

Once I was done stamping the doily I used the versa mark all over the doily. 

I then sprinkled the Distress speckled egg glaze all over the doily. This Distress Glaze is found in this month Mixed Media Kit January 2024.

Used the heat tool to set the embossing glaze 

Glue down the doily and trim away the excess pieces from the edge of the canvas. 

Here you see I painted the Flower Set 1 chipboard piece and the butterfly wings with white paint. 

Now use the versa mark on the flower portion of the chipboard piece. 

To create a two tone look sprinkle the speckled egg glaze on top of the petals and sprinkle the tattered rose on the lower half of the flower. 

Use the heat tool to set the glaze on the flower. I did this process twice to get a more colored look to the chipboard piece. 

For the stem of the flower I inked down the stem using Distress vintage photo ink, then took the versa mark inked up the stem and sprinkled pumice stone and heat set it. 

Here is the chipboard butterfly I used from the Cardmaking Kit January 2024, I colored in the body with a marker and I will do the same process to the wings as we did for the flower. 

Used the versa mark first then, sprinkled on some speckled egg. Now heat set with the heat tool.

Now it's time to decorate. I took two of the ephemera cards from the January 2024 Scrapbook Kit and roughed the edges up and inked with distress vintage photo ink. I placed one a little behind the doily and the horse card sits in front. I placed some foam tape on the spoon to have it raised just a bit. You will need a little piece of foam tape on the back of the charm so it stays in place. 

I also adhered down the flower chipboard piece. 

Next I cam in with these beautiful flowers from the October 2023 Kit. Here is where you can use past supplies from other kits or use the flowers from this months Scrapbook Kit 2024

I adhered the butterfly chipboard piece and now we are all done. 

I hope you enjoyed todays canvas project as I used this January 2024 Mixed Media Kit while incorporating other items from other kits.
