DT CraftWell: Lovely Canvas Wall Hanging

  

Hi, 

This is my next post for Craftwell. 

For this project, I used a decorated canvas from Quick Quotes. My daughter went with me to one of their fun whole day workshop and we bought this kit to decorate later on. My daughter did an amazing job. I was about to donate some of my sample albums and found again. I wasn't completely satisfied with the title, so I decided to use the sentiment die from SCT. It had just arrived in April, so I was dying to play with it.

Here you can see side by side the change it made in this lovely canvas. Hahaha, pun intended:

I used some printed pink paper and cardstock from the "Lovely" card kit from CTMH:

I had asked my daughter to glue only the bottom part of the picture frame dies cuts to let people add pictures behind. I added some double side tape on the top without removing the backing:

This kind of sentiment die cuts are wonderful to spice up any project, and super easy to cut using the snap.

DT CraftWell: Fiesta Ribbon Medals

 

Hi, 

This is my next post for Craftwell. 

I live in San Antonio, Texas and April is its Fiesta month.

In my kids school, we did a Fiesta celebration on April 30th and I was in charge of arranging a shoe box parade for the little ones.

So I made Fiesta ribbon medals for the winners:

In short:

I bought already made birthday ribbons with the pin in the back and converted them in fun Fiesta Medals (that's a big item here, everybody collects them during April).

I stamped sentiments and cute little Fiesta critters from HeroArts and cut them with their complimentary die cut.

I stamped sentiments directly in the ribbons used for the Fiesta Wreaths and even the chihuahua/ tacos directly to them using the FSJ licorice black ink. And colored everything with gel pens.

Then, I used my hot glue gun to assemble the medals. I used small Mexican hats, decorated them with rhinestone ribbon, to cover the "birthday" sentiment.

Those were super cute and quick to make.

I did prizes for these categories:

"Fiesta Diversity"

"Fiesta Medal Craze"

And

"#ILoveTacosSoMuch"

Don't the little ones look so cute with their ribbon medals and their shoe boxes floats?

CraftWell DT: Love Browny -G45 Minialbum

 

Hi, 

This is my next post for Craftwell

I have been accumulating the Graphic 45 monthly kits since their beginning, thus, I finally decided to reminiscence on my paw-baby in doggie heaven and used the 2021 Vol. 9 Well Groomed kit.

I changed some of the suggested papers from the kit with background papers from the complementary Graphic 45 paper pad.

In short:

First, I created several shaker elements as embellishments using the Dog's Life kit.

I tried to recreated my boy as best as I could using the elements from the kit and some PowerPuff chalks:

No too bad comparing him with the original Browny:

Then, I followed the instructions from the Well Groomed kit, just changing some of the papers with the background papers without flowers (which are also cute but not what I wanted to portrait for our dear 16 year old male dog).

Then, I used tacky glue to glue the papers to the thick black cardboard sheets. And decorated the title page using the shaker elements that I had died cut previously.

For some pages, I used the TC beautiful words embossing folder to emboss the dark mats before attaching them to the pages:

I'm still working on decorating the inside pages with the G45 ephemera/post cards elements and stickers as well as more shaker die cuts I made. I really like the ribbon suggested binding of the book and might do it, attaching my Browny's rabis shot tag as dangle. Once I finish the album, I'll post it to.

Here are some close ups from the title page shaker elements.

Finally, I die cut the letters to spell "Browny" using two different G45 papers and glued them to the "love" shaker to finish the album title page.

I used the BoBunny alpha die for the "B" and the TH alpha dies for the rest.

Comparing both albums:

 Suggested Graphic 45’s album:

From the Grapic 45 blog

And mine uncompleted one:

As I mentioned previously, I ended up changing the background paper of all the pages, but one (the multi-colored paw printed page)...
