Hello there, today I am sharing a fun mixed media 6x6 canvas I created with a few of Rebekah Meier’s new Mixed Media line for Therm O Web and some odds and ends from my craft stash.

Mixed Media Butterfly 6x6 Canvas

Other Supplies: Recollections white flowers Recollections die cut frame Petaloo flowers Unity Stamp Company sentiment The Crafters Workshop Mini Butterfly Trail 6x6 Stencil ________________________________________________________________________

Mixed Media Butterfly Canvas Instructions:

I chose a piece of text paper from Anna Griffin to adhere a 6x6 piece of Rebekah Meier Designs Mixed Media Adhesive sheets 9x12  to. Next, I misted the paper with 2 different colors of Glimmer Mist. Next I used some painters tape to tape down the Crafters Workshop Mini Butterfly Trail 6x6 Stencil to my cardstock.

For the next step, I applied the Deco Foil™ Transfer Gel over the stencil and then lifted the stencil so the design could dry. I noticed that the Glimmer mist bled thru the transfer gel but that didn't matter since I was going to foil the image with Rebekah Meier Designs Transfer Foil 6″ x 6″ (12 sheets per pack) • Patina.

 Now that the transfer gel was foiled, I was ready to adhere the Rebekah Meier Designs Mixed Media Adhesive sheet to the canvas and decorate.

I used a paintbrush to apply some of the  Rebekah Meier Designs Mixed Media Medium to adhere the frame onto my canvas. This medium works great for adhering paper and other paper elements to the canvas. It can also be used over the image to add a seal to it.

After adhering the frame, I cut a butterfly die twice and layered it with a 3D WHITE FOAM SQUARE • 1/4 IN. I then applied a small amount of the Rebekah Meier Designs Mixed Media Medium to the bottom and adhered it to the frame. I finished my project with a stamped sentiment and some Petaloo flowers.

All of the embellishments I used were items I already had in my craft stash. I love being able to use up older items rather than purchasing more things I might not use right away. These smaller canvases are easy to create quickly and make great gifts. Look through your stash and see what you can find to create with today.

Shaker card dies from Anna Griffin

Hello there. I really had fun creating with Anna's confetti dies. I completely forgot to share my creations with these fun dies that debuted in her May show on HSN. 

Here's a look at what I created with them.

This one was one of my favorites.

I think the stars were my favorite!

I took a die cut from one of Anna's paper collections and cut out the center with a craft knife, then I applied acetate to the backside, used some of Anna's sticker sentiments for the inside and sprinkled in some white beads with the glitter cardstock dies. I then used Therm-O-Web's 3D foam squares to adhere the shaker box to the card base. It's definitely a stunning finished look.

All those shimmery sequins! 

Thank you for stopping by today!

A little washi fun

Hello, friends! My friend Jolane is such an enabler. She posts these awesome and fun videos from the parking lot of Michaels and her latest one was about washi tape being on sale. She had me at unicorns so naturally, I went on the hunt.

I ended up finding the Unicorns as well as Mermaids!!

Here's a few cards I created with them.

I layered different patterns of the washi tape on the card base and coordinated some fun stamps. I layered them on the washi tape using my favorite 3D foam squares from Therm-O-Web.ther

These were easy and quick to create.

I think I am officially obsessed with washi tape now.

Thanks for stopping by!

Unity and Misti!

Hello Unity friends! Thanks for joining us today as we hop with

I'm so excited to be sharing some Unity/Misti creations with you today. A super big thank you to My Sweet Petunia!

Using the Misti to stamp was life changing! So many times I went to stamp an image and it came out crooked or there was not enough ink.
Not after the Misti!
The Misti makes precision stamping so easy!

It helps to create cards like this one easy!
I used Versamark and gold embossing powder to make the coloring stand out. With the Misti, I can place my cardstock on the stamping platform and then position the stamp before I ink it up.

One tip I want to share I learned from Jennifer Mcguire is to take the top sheet of your Misti grid paper and laminate it. This makes it easy to wipe away the ink so you can conserve the sheets that come with the Misti and you can also use it for mirror stamping techniques. What's that you say? Yep, I tested it and it works!

His and Hers letterpress folders

Hello friends! I am back again sharing some designs with Anna Griffin's His & Hers letterpress cards. These folders were fun and easy to create with and the results made some beautifu cards.

Anna's Collage Toppers were easy to add to this design.

Oh the flamingoes! They don't have to be pink!

I chose to use the pineapple design for a masculine card.

I love how the red ink really made this card bold and fun.
