Hi everyone!

Are you spending a good holiday time, enjoying the sun, taking nice pics?

My holidays are over now, so my new project is to create my own scrapbook room! Deco time! I created 2 small canvases (6×6 cms) for my future studio! I love Canvas Corp, this small size particularly!

I took inspiration from the canvas I created for the CHA.

I worked with Glimmer Mist and Chalkboard on the first canvas. I simply sprayed on the background and on the cloth tag. While it dries, you can decorate it with a flower and velvet leaves from 7Gypsies. I fastened the different elements with a lovely wood drawing pin and a Canvas Corp pin. I love these pins! Their packaging is awesome too: lovely little glass bottles that will be a perfect decoration for my future scraproom!

 

On the second canvas, I used Gesso and a mask for more texture. Place your mask on your canvas and apply gesso with an old plastic loyalty card or with a paintbrush.

 

Let it dry in the open air.

They spray your inks. With a baby towel, spread the colour. Feel free to mix the colours for a very creative result!

 Let it dry for a few minutes and decorate
