A canvas...and a challenge winner! :)



Sunshine canvas

Hello friends! Today's project is a 7 X 9 canvas! I wanted to make something fun and happy for my nephews' play area aka my workout room. :)


I painted the background with some Ranger Distress Ink Stains...love how fast I can cover the area... with minimal mess! :)


Lots of fussy cutting.


I added a layer of Ranger Crackle Paint in rock candy for some subtle cracks.

Supplies: (from Your Scrapbook Stash) Papers and stickers by Echo Park Paper, (from my own stash) Ranger Distress Ink Stains, Ranger Crackle Paint in rock candy, ribbon, buttons.

***********************************************************

A big thanks to those who played along with my guest Helen's modern shabby challenge! The winner is

Mitra Pratt with this awesome layout...


Congrats Mitra! Please send me your mailing details so that I can get your RAK mailed out to you! :)

P/s: I would love for you to play along with my guest Mel's layered challenge! :)

    I totally dig what you have done to this canvas - those distress inks...I don't know them but if that's the effect they have on canvas I want them now!
