Canvas Corp Denim Projects

On the Canvas Corp blog you will find a round up of projects made with denim and Canvas Corp products.  It was cool to see how everyone use denim into their projects.  I had fun making them and cutting up a old pair of jeans!  Here is a link to the denim post on the Canvas Corp blog and here are more photos of one of the projects I made.

Cell phone holder - this was made from the back pocket of my jeans, I added some Canvas Corp natural canvas fringe around the edges by plucking out some of the threads from the canvas.  I also added a handle make from Kelly Panacci Happy Flappers fabric. The handle is pinned to the pocket with 7 Gypsies Antique Pins.  Of course the flower and dragon fly is from my stash and the whole thing is put together with  Beacon 3 in 1 Glue.

Miss Lizzy's Crop

Heading out next weekend to support Miss Lizzy's Foundation.  It is going to be a great time with old and new friends.  If you are interested in attending, click here to get more info.  I will be teaching a Scrapbooking 101 Plus class.  Just finished up kitting the class for next weekend for Miss Lizzy's crop. The class kit is worth over 20 dollars, so the class is a steal at 12.50! Everyone receives in the kit a bottle of my favorite glue, Zipdry! Zipdry retails in Canada for 13.99 at M's.....so it is worth coming just for the glue! Very limited spots available! Sneak peak below as well. Fun summer double pager!  All proceeds go to the foundation.

Whoo Loves You......

Cute little owl isn't she! A lot of you know I love taking pictures of owls but have never really crafted one before. I bought the base from Michaels and covered in paper.  I found the silver leaves at Lens Mills store and thought that they looked like feathers so decided to cover the chest, wings and part of its head in silver leaves!  I added Stamping UP! metal buttons for the eyes! Paper was attached with Zipdry glue and the leaves attached with Beacon 3 in 1 Glue. This glue is great for placing items and having them adhere quickly.

Stuck on Succulants!

For some reason I am stuck on looking at succulants lately...on Pintrest, the web etc...I think it is in the hope that I can plant some soon in my garden...I think Spring it finally here.  I have a little plan to put some succulants on our deck in some cute little hanging containers I found at the dollar store.  But until then been playing with faux ones.  I made this cute little container with Canvas Corp products...the flower is removable....come on over to the Canvas Corp blog to read more about how it was made and the products used  www.canvascorpbrands.com. Keep an eye out here for more projects with succulants!

Canvas Corp Brands - Sunny Bunny

Here is a little bunny I made using some Canvas Corp Brand products.  The paper is a beautiful Tiffany blue colour and went great with the paint.  The banner was made with the waxed cord, neutral jute cord and medium sized clothes pins.  I mixed it with items I already had and it made a great quick Easter decoration.  Come on over to the blog to read more about it.

Well it's been a long time.....

As you can see I have not been blogging for a while, not going to giving any excuses, other than life derailed me for a while.....but I am back with more vigour than ever.  I did not stop scrapping and making art, just stopped sharing it!  Been spending lots of times with friends, new and old, following my many passions including lots of photography. Recently I decided to jump back into the world of design teams, I always have loved sharing and creating with fabulous products.  Recently I have joined the Canvas Corp Creative Crew!  I am over the moon, I love love love their products, which includes their own lines but also Tattered Angles and 7Gypsies...you have to check them out as they have over 5000 items!  Canvas Corp
