New Orleans Saints Mini Album---Who Dat?

I designed a Mini Album for a friend. 

I wanted to share it with you!

I love the colors of this team.

 

I love making mini albums.  It's a great way to store pictures of fun times in one place. 






 

Christmas Canister-Recycled with Deco Art

I had a small coffee canister and immediately knew I had to alter it!

Does that happen to you?

 

I used some new products from Deco Arts.

 

Their Metallic Wax Finish covered the slick surface of the canister.

See the tutorial at the end of the post.

 

Want to get in on a challenge with some prizes??

Check it out at Party Time Tuesdays!

**I tried several adhesives in order to glue down embellishments on this wax product. E6000 is the only one that I finally got to work.

 

Thinking of You - Simon Says Challenge

I'm so loving my Deco Arts supplies!!

I've used their Misters to make my own designer paper.  Then I sprayed the leaves I died cut.

Added them to the paper with a Stampin Up sentiment.

 

 

 The card below I did a water color look using a stencil.  Then layered up some burlap & leaves.

 I hope you'll join Simon Says Stamp this week. I stamped the sentiment.




 

Unity Stamps Friday with Flair

I LOVE this stamped image that is at Unity Stamps.

I did a watercolor background to go with the image.

It's my favorite technique right now!

 

 

I'm entering the Friends With Flair. 

PaperArtsy Masonite picture with inks and paint

I was inspired by Wanda Hentges project.  I used the Paper Artsy stamp set by Darcy.

After priming my Masonite board with gesso, I used a red and green spray ink. Sprayed over top of them with a green one from Lindy's stamp gang that has that gold shimmer in it.

Then I stamped the vine (with black stazon) around the top and side.

Using a wet brush, I brushed away the ink. Then I took Deco Art paint and filled the leaves in with green.  The vines have slivers that I filled in with white acrylic paint.

Then I stamped the hearts and colored those in with acrylic paint.

  Isn't this an amazing stamp set!!

I totally love how the project turned out!  I hope it will inspire you to create outside the box!
