Storybook Reverse Canvas

Hello friends!  This is a reverse canvas I made for Donna Salazar using her Storybook Collection.

The background of the canvas was decoupaged using the Crafty Chronicle and Beacon's Fast Finish Decoupage.  It was then inked with Smooch Spritz and splattered with acrylic paint.  The clouds were cut from one of the Storybook papers, and I 'hung' then from the frame using string.
The Bitty Blossoms were made from the Kraft Labels in Donna's Mix'd Media Stax.  I peeled off the backing of the label and sprinkled Fairy Dust Glitter onto the sticky side before making my Bitty Blossom.
The matted layers are made up of Storybook Papers, The Crafty Chronicle and punched Kraft paper.  The frame was altered with Ceramic Stucco and inked with Mix'd Media Inx and Smooch Spritz.


Hope you are inspired to get messy and have some fun!
Have a lovely day!

'Be Happy' ATC

 Helloooooo there!  Natasha here with my first ATC!  I have to admit that I procrastinated because I was nervous about making an ATC, but I had so much fun and it was easy!  
 I used Donna Salazar's Bitty Blossoms Dies to make these little flowers.  They were covered with Fairy Dust Glitter and Jasmine Mix'd Media Inx embossing powder.
 The Nestaboard sprockets are also one of Donna's designs and are manufactured by Want2Scrap.  They coordinate with the Spellbinders Sprightly Sprocket dies and the Nestabling by Want2Scrap.
 I had to sneak eyelets and lacing onto my ATC!  LOL.
 I stamped the 'Bubble Wrap' stamp by Art Gone Wild and embossed it with Mix'd Media Inx embossing powder in Denim.
I used Donna's Girlie Grunge labels for the phrase.  These dies are so useful and there is an awesome variety of words!
As you can see, this ATC is made up of several layers.  The base layer is Designer Embellies ATC - Denim.  Above that layer I used ATC - Chipboard, another layer of ATC - Denim and a layer of ATC - Canvas.  Can you tell I LURVE layers?!

Thanks for taking a peek at my ATC!
Have a beautiful day!

"Dream" Box

 Hi everyone!!  Today I have a box to share with you that I created using Pion Design's Studio of Memories Collection.  

 My Romantique Rose was made using the Rose Creations dies by Spellbinders.  You can find the tutorial HERE.  The flourish is a Vilda Stamp (V23 Stone swirl) that was embossed with Jasmine Mix'd Media Inx embossing powder and then fussy cut.
I LOVE Spellbinders dies because they are so simple to use and they add such a lovely touch to any project.
I adore the elegance that Dusty Attic chippies!  And they are so simple to use!
... brick wall texture made with fiber paste, ink and paint.

This is the inside of the lid of the box.  I adhered corrugated board in the background and laced tulle through it.  You can find the lacing tutorial HERE.
The stamped and embossed leaves were made with Vilda Stamps' V336 Easter rice + feather.  
The base of the box is adorned with vintage lace and punched paper. Hope you like my box!

Thank you for visiting!
Natasha
