Discover Canvas with Faber-Castell®

Hi everyone, it's Anita today and I want to share with you a canvas

I made using lots of wonderful Faber-Castell® products.

I used a flat canvas for this so I could do some stamping on it. For the image at the top

I used my Stampers Big Brush Pens; Black to stamp the image and it is colored

 with Light Cobalt Turquoise #154.

To create the colored dots that are scattered across the canvas I used my

soldering iron to melt Paper Crafter Crayons in a variety of colors.

I started by painting the background with Gesso mixed with Bubble Gum Gelatos®.

I wanted a streaky effect so I did not mix the Gelatos® all the way in. 

While the Gesso was still wet I pushed small doilies into it for texture.

To color my background I mixed several colors of Gelatos® with water and 

brushed the colors on randomly.  I like to mix my colors right on my craft mat - it is easier 

for me to work with it this way.

I colored wood butterflies with Blue Metal and Metallic Grape Gelatos. I applied the colors

directly to the wood and blended with my fingers.

I added accents with Black and White Stampers Big Brush Pens then sprayed

them with a fixative for some shine.

For my title I colored a chippie with Cherry Red Gelatos® and then added 

a coat of Diamond Glaze. For the background I used more Gelatos® mixed with 

water to stamp the circles.

I used my Black Stampers Big Brush Pen to stamp my images then

added some glitter glue for sparkle.

Here you can see one of the doilys after it has been colored.

I added a sprinkle of tiny chipboard stars to finish it off. 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my project.

Girl Scout Sunday

Hello, hello blogging buddies!!

I hope you have had a wonderful weekend so far!

Mine had been pretty fast, I am trying to get 

a lot of things done before I go in for surgery this Friday!!!

I am hoping that my household stays intact with the hubs in charge.

Today I have another layout from my Girl Scout Album

to share. This field trip was pretty much an annual event for us.

Scout Sunday is hosted by all the churches here in out town

and they recognize all the Girl Scout and Boy Scout troops. 

I have used Echo Park papers for this along with some Bazzill Raven cardstock.

The flower is Bo Bunny and the acetate petals in the back are from an 

old, OLD, OLD Heidi Grace sheet. I am determined to use up all the stuff I bought!

I used Art Glue and silver glitter to edge the flower. 

I borrowed my buddies GINORMOUS punch for this pennant!

My stamps are from Basic Grey, the chipboard is Um WOW Studios and

I have heat embossed all the pieces. 

This stamp is Maya Road, the bird rub on is Creative Imaginations. 

I am linking up at the following challenges:

Stuck Sketches - I rotated the sketch and used only one photo

City Crafter's Challenge - Birds

Paper Lovers Studio - Recipe: 3 pattern papers, background stamping, 

punched shape, handwriting (it is hard to see, but the pink paper does 

have a pattern on it, look below the photo)

Thank so much for stopping by today!

Have a wonderful week!!!

Anita
