Scrap booking using Canvas

Yesterday I managed to made another scrap book.

However, this round I made it by using canvas board for oil / acrylic painting & I loves the outcome.

My scrap book canvas design is as below.

I used a canvas board (140x180mm). I color the canvas edge using Distress ink from Ranger distress ink - Walnut Stain.

Left side of canvas board:

1. Punch paper (white paper acid free paper for graphic designer use): MS Punches - Cherish & Ranger distress ink - Aged Mahogany.
2. Pearls
3. Roses: added some glitter glue
4. Swirl: Die cuts (forget which co. as I went to a craft lesson with free flow embellishments)

Right side of canvas board:

1. Punch pattern paper: 7gypies (Fluer De Lys), MS Punches - Doily & Ranger distress ink - Aged Mahogany.
2. Cut out a pattern paper: Webster's Pages (Western Romance: Sweet Romance)

 Nearer view of the glittered roses and a look of myself. (^_^)

Nearer view of the sentiments from Kaiser & stamped on Docrafts (Spring Time). The paper edge was colored with Ranger distress ink - Walnut Stain & added glitter glue.

I choose "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" as my self portrait sentiment because this is my first time to go for photo shooting. I have been wonder how would I look like for a real photo shooting & I was satisfied with the outcome after all the posing instructed by the photographer. I really thank to the photographer because he managed to capture the photos scene that I really want. (perhaps because of my dresses then he managed to get the idea.. hahaha)

That's all for now. Stay tuned.

Altered Plastic Paper Clip

TGIF!

Happy Friday!

I have been spending 4 days at home doing my hand crafts stuffs - hand embroidery, wired jewelry, beadings & paper crafts. Took annual leaves from the co.


Today, I am going to share what I have done with plastic paper clips.

These are paper clips which I get for FREE from my last year purchase at Living Cabin & was kept in my storage approx. a year. They are cute with nice cute animals on it.

Do you know that you can re-purpose your earring which do not have earstud? Saw my earring without earstud as below? ( O_O yeah.. saw it.. Hahaha )


In addition, I also used paper flowers from Kaiser & Prima to decorate my paper clip. I arranged the flower on top of the paper clip. Of course, using UHU glue to stick it on.

I used buttons & ribbons to add in more decoration. Aren't they lovely? ^_^
If you look at the top row, these pink flower was actually one of my scraps too. It come from one of my hair band & it always keep dropping out. So, I pulled everything & keep it as scraps.

 Have fun with this project if you have these type or any type of paper clips.

Tips: You can use the earrings (without earstud) on your cards or scrap booking to add in as embellishment.
