This
week has been a special time at That’s Crafty! as it saw the launch of That’s
Crafty! stamps. There are two
collections, all designed by Donna Gray.
I
couldn’t resist playing with a word stamp to make this canvas on easel for a home
décor piece.
Supplies
Mini Canvas and Easel
Martha Stewart Craft Acrylics:- Sea Lavender, Putty, Summer Linen
Black
Stabilio Watersoluble Pencil
Crackle Paste (I used Golden but That’s Crafty! stock several)
Old
Rolling Pin
Instructions
Apply
Gesso to canvas and MDF heart. Onto the
canvas, apply Grunge Paste to brick stencil. Onto the heart, apply Crackle Paste. Lay aside.
Roll
paperclay to required thickness. Ink up
stamp and stamp into the paperclay. Cut into
a small tile. If you want cracks to
appear, do not condition the paperclay beforehand.
Apply
all the paints, with a foam brush, to the canvas and easel, heart and once the
paperclay word is dry, swipe on some paint around edge.
Scribble
black watersoluble pencil to give definition and to create markings on the
easel. Wet a watercolour brush to blend.
Assemble the canvas by layering the heart, key and paperclay word. Prop onto easel and display as home décor.
Until
next time,
Wishes
Lynne

Lovely creation, Lynne. I love the way you use Paper Clay and the crackles in it look great! This would be a lovely welcome for people moving into a new home. xx
ReplyDeleteA very lovely mini canvas that says so much about HOME. Love that you use those mini stencils to bring out so much texture, Lynne. The bricks are to me strength, the heart speaks of love, the key either access or safety. Gorgeous little work of art. Thanks for sharing, Lynne. inkybru xx
