Altered Canvas

Hey there Quick Quotes blog readers!! Tanisha here with another project featuring products from Club Q, Quick Quotes' monthly kit club and the Best Traditions vellum strip. What I love most about this kit is that it comes with a photo of a pre-made projects. You can either use that as a guide or do like I did here and create create a freestyle project of your own! Very versatile, right?!

I used the canvas to create a wall hanging for my scrap room to serve as a reminder as to my main reason for creating. I love these colors, they're so regal (and were my high school colors).
Here are a few highlights of the project. I stacked 2 die cut flowers and then a twine tied button to the center.
I absolutely adore the rhinestone trim, so I used it to frame the canvas so that it would stand apart from the scalloped die cut that I adhered to the back. I also stacked the die cut buttons and added pearls because...well I just love butterflies and add them to many of my projects. :)

Then, I added some purple to the flower by spritzing it with spray mist and then inking it with Purple Passion PowderPuff Chalking Ink.
I heat embossed the background with white embossing powder and a music print stamp. I inked over it with Lemonade and Purple Passion PowderPuff Chalking Inks and then used a damp paper towel to wipe off the excess.
That's all from me today...thanks for stopping by!

My photo
I live in New Jersey with my husband and our 2 sons. I work full time as a Medical Technologist and volunteer for the Community Emergency Response Team in my town. I've been scrapping for the past 8 years and I truly love it because it allows me to combine my love of photography and my love of paper into one art form. I love teaching scrapbook classes and providing freelance work. Please contact me via email if you are interested in commissioning my services: tanisharenee74@hotmail.com
