KAISERCRAFT APRIL SKETCH & My Canvas for SCRAPMATTS..

Hello there,
it is a glorious Wednesday here and I hope your day is going well too!

I have created a layout for KAISERCRAFT APRIL SKETCH and it looks like..



I just loved the sketch and followed it closely using one of my favourite paper ranges Secret Garden, with some Kaisercraft stencils and dies and mists!!

Some closer views..
 I love the script stencil!! lots of fussy cutting and layering..

Love  you...

Loved creating this one!

And as part of my Design Team for SCRAPMATTS I created a canvas that will go on display at the Shows with all the Design Team Family.  I remember going to the Craft show in Brisbane years ago, and admiring the canvases on the wall, and now I will be up there with them.. What an honor to be part of this lovely team!

For my canvas I first gessoed my canvas and then laid out my chipboard peices the way I liked..I added a bit of lace and then I covered it all  with gesso and left  dry overnight..

The chipboard that I used was CB 6005 Ornate Frames 05, CB5142 Retro Squares 02, CB5137 Ornate Toppers 01, CB 2012 Page Border 10 (Cogs) the butterflies from CB4015 and my Title from CB6112 Scrap Words 31.

I then sprayed the canvas with 3 mists and left it dry thoroughly. I then matt my photo and placed it on the canvas, added some fussy cut flowers and tags and 2 butterfly's.

a closer view..
 
My canvas..

I am happy with how it turned out. Each of the design team are creating a canvas of themselves so pop over to the SCRAPMATTS BLOG to see what the team are up to!!

Thanks for your visit, and thank you too for the lovely comments you leave me to read...

Have a splendid day!

    Hi Lizzy!! Glad to hear your weather is still so nice. We have had some lovely here too but they are definitely getting cooler. Winter is certainly on the way. Loooveee your layout. it is so pretty with that beautiful photo of your lovely daughter. Adore the fussy cut flowers trailing down the center and the colours are gorgeous!! Must say though that your canvas is my fave. Such a beautiful photo of you and I love all the gorgeous texture created by the chippies on the background. The subtle colours are perfect and allows the photo to be the focal point. Absolutely gorgoues makes!! Enjoy the rest of your week Lizzy1! hugs xx

    How beautiful, both projects are so pretty and elegant. Love all the fussy cutting to create the central spray on "Love you..." You made the Kaiser papers sing! I think your personality shows on the DT canvas. Ultra soft and serene. Love the muted tones and the wonderful use of chipboard :D

    Your page is beautiful...so intricate with all the fussy cutting and layers...but your canvas just blows me away...I love that you covered the chippies in gesso to make such a textured background that frames your photo so beautifully. Love that photo of you...your love shines.
