It's A Stitch Up - SSS Monday Challenge



Hi there! Is it Monday? 
I am currently on the beach having fun but just want to invite you 
for a fabulous theme at SSS Monday Challenge which is 

It's A Stitch Up


As always there is a $50 voucher to win and spend at the greatest 
Simon Says Stamp Store! Join us asap!


After finishig the renovation of my flat, finally I got some time just to create! 
Oh how I missed that for those two weeks. 
There was a free time, new stamps and a great mojo so I really enjoyed it. 



This are two canvas tags sewed together the way they can be closed like a book.

This is how to make them:
Take a piece of primed canvas and cut out 4 tags. 
Put a cardboard inside each tag and sew the edges. 
In the middle put a piece of canvas as well and join the tags. 


Apply texture paste through some stencils and some Opal Magic Violet-Gold Acrylic Paint which gives beautiful shimmer touch. 
Then start to play with Infusions and water! 
The results are just amazing. I LOVE Infusions. 


Finish the background coloring with some Distress Stains and Crayons.


Stamp Rings by Tim Holtz with Antique Linen Distress Ink and small dots from Jofy Mini with Morning Frost by Altenew.


Time for flowers! Stamp and color the Flower Garden flowers, 
cut them out (I fussy cuted them) and place with 3D dots to give dimension. 


Fill the space with some Wildflowers 
inked with Ground Espresso and Pumice Stone Stains.


Finally place the Friendship Words (thank you, Sandra!) inked with Wild Honey and Fossilized Amber Distress Stains and Sprays. Voila!
