Cherish Dream Catcher Canvas

Hi everyone. :) Adriana back again and am so excited to be playing with the  wonderful new collection from
Ultimate Crafts - "Bohemian Bouquet"

designed by talented Denise Boddey







Today I have created a special project - a canvas using some of the new release dies from the fabulous 
Ultimate Crafts - "Bohemian Bouquet" collection

Lots of texture and layers.







Using the Ultimate Crafts - 
Bohemian Bouquet  "Bazaar" 6X6 Stencil  ULT158037
together with the Couture Creations
Anna Griffin Embossing Paste CO724870
I spread the embossing paste over the stencil with a palette knife
and then sprinkled some  CO724993 Couture Creations Super Sparkles Turquoise embossing powder, all over the wet paste and using my heat gun to set it dry.








Once all completed dry,  I dabbed a little bit of the
CO724871 Couture Creations Anna Griffin White Gesso with a pallet knife and randomly all over the canvas.





Adding some purple spray colour in the centre and letting it drip over down the canvas.





Cutting the following dies from the collection -

CO724293 Couture Creations Jewelled Florettes in the centre with
foliage from cut from the following dies
ULT158056 Ultimate Crafts Bohemian Bouquet - Classic Branch &
CO725047 Couture Creations Enchanted Tea Party Bouquet die






I also cut a few of the

Christmas Border Die with the

Adding Pearls

Spread your Wings & Fly Canvas



Hi there everyone and thanks for stopping by here, today my project is featured on the Artdeco Creations / Couture Creations blog. I created a canvas decorated with the new Release paper collection of the
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle

This collection is so pretty and I love the watercolour images on the papers, very rustic but with a bit of a modern water colour twist.

Here is a sneaky peeky ………..






The collection has a 12x 12 paper pad, 6x6 paper pad a couple of stamp sets and some great stencils and fabulous dies. The are also some fabulous inspirational quotes on cards, which are perfect for cards or for title on a page.

My canvas is created with the 
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle papers 12x12 pad ULT157761
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle stampset Fern, Flowers ULT157796
and
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle Stencil ULT157802
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle stencil ULT157804
Team up with the fabulous 
Couture Creations Anna Griffin Embossing paste C0724870
Couture Creations Anna Griffin Gesso C0724871


"Spread your Wings & Fly"




To begin with I coated my canvas with the

Couture Creations Anna Griffin Gesso C0724871
and let it complete dry.

I then sprayed some colour and spray some water to mix the colour together.



Using this paper from the
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle papers 12x12 pad ULT157761



I teared some of the paper and adhered to my canvas with medium gel


I gave it all another coat of 
Anna Griffin Gesso C0724871
and gently wiped some of the excess with a baby wipe.


                                                Using the 

Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle Stencil ULT157802
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle stencil ULT157804
Team up with the fabulous 
Couture Creations Anna Griffin Embossing paste C0724870
and some
Couture Creations - Chunky Mossed Bronze embossing powders
Couture Creations CO725008
I created a very textured background on the canvas



I cut out a bird from one of the
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle papers 12x12 pad ULT157761 and stamped some of the flowers and fern leaves from the 
Ultimate Crafts L'Aquarelle stampset Fern, Flowers ULT157796, then cut them all out.

I also glued one of the inspirational cards 
"Spread your wings and Fly" inside a chipboard frame



I sprayed some of the Bulk flowers - Tea dyed Jewelled Florettes C0724294


I then adhered all the stamped images and cutout flowers and bird with 
Couture Creations - 3D glue dots C0723817






I coloured and tied some Seam binding ribbon on the bottom of canvas. 




A bit of bling here and there.

Joyful Blessings - cards Season's Greetings dies

Hi everyone, thanks so much for stopping by here today.  
More christmas cards have been created here in my craft room 
with the New papers and dies from the 
Artdeco Creations - Ultimate Craft Collection  

These dies and papers are all available now from your local scrapbooking store.
Christmas will soon be here and I thought I share some christmas cards created with these new release products.


I created two cards using the same die and stamp set 
but with both looking completely a little different in colour. One I created with Rustic Hinge Ink pad and the other with Chipped Sapphire.

Created also with the Season's Greetings Collection dies
Comet & Cupid Winter Tree Die ULT157695
Wild Christmas Flower die ULT157691
and stampset
Joyful Greeting ULT157674

adding one of  flowers from the
Small Mixed Poinsettias flowers ULT157665, only on one of the cards.

Here is a closer look at them both individually. Once I cut out the tree die
I used the negative shape as a stencil - this is one of my favourite things to do with die cuts and do it all the time on my projects.
With the cut out tree, I added some White gesso from the Couture Creations Anna Griffin Mixed Media Collection  to make the tree look like it has snow on it.
Notice the cluster of the poinsettia in the corner - I also added some Gesso here too.






Using the  Season's Greetings Collection Joyful Greeting ULT157674 stamp set , I stamped around the edges and also made a sentiment for the top of the card.

Here is another card using the same products but with a different colour ink pad.



Using Clear embossing powder over the stencil part of the tree die cut and inking around the background, once the clear embossing powder has been heated up.
