Stencils, Stamping, Embossing, And Spray Paint!

 Well hello Monday, it feel like Monday. 

I have a few projects this week but I will start with this tag I created

using Avocado Arts Stamps, Krylon Paint, and Clear Scraps Mascils!

I really had fun with this new AA stamp set. 

I loved pairing the colors. It's been a crazy week.

Have a beautiful Monday friends! :) 

I Think I Have A Spray Paint Problem....

 I just went back to WalMart yesterday because I ran out of my 3rd can of

Krylon Metallic Gold Spray Paint...I think I have issues. LOL

I love the gritty graffiti feel of spray painting my projects, and using 

Mascils or Stencils with them, what can I say? 

For this Clear Scraps Word Frame I used the Love You Frame, Drangonfly Mascil,

and Metallic Gold + Krylon Turquoise spray paint, trust me my hands are covered and so

are my leather cuff bracelets LOL Oh and in the letters I used Kaiser Craft papers. 

I don't know honestly it was just art therapy for me, it's been a rough week! 

Happy Tuesday friends and GOODBYE (EFF YOU) 2014! hahahaha

Not Xyron But Should Be! Map A Lamp!

Hey there! 

This week I was inspired by the Xyron board on Pinterest

Not Xyron But Should be- so I thought I would TACKLE this

Map Lampshade project....

http://www.pinterest.com/pin/74872412528186866/

After a few fails (on my part) I finally got it! LOL

First of all I could not find a vintage map anywhere and trust me I looked!

So I decided to distress my own map using Spritz in brown and a light

dusting of gold spray paint because I wanted it shimmery too. 

 After it dried I crinkled it a bit because I wanted an artsy textured feel.

Then I cut it into 9" strips. 

 I ran the strips through my Xyron 9" Creative Station 

(which by the way EVERY home needs one!)

 I then peeled the clear plastic adhesive film off and tore the 

map into strips and applied. I did it in strips because #1 I could not find a straight 

lampshade. #2 I wanted more texture on the shade. 

I actually love the textured result- very artsy! :) 

What do you think??

It literally took me an hour when I got it all figured out.

Happy Friday friends~

Products Used:Xyron 9" Creative Station , Maps, Paper lampshade.

Art...Pinky Style That Is...

Hey there!

It's Monday and I am in my craft room but before I share my projects

from this week, I wanted to share a project I created a couple weeks ago. 

This canvas I altered. 

 For the canvas itself I spray painted it with Krylon Gold paint.

Then I painted over it using the Clear Scraps Spiral Dots mascil

with pink Krylon paint- I know it sounds like an odd combo but I love it. 

 Then I took some paper and my Xyron Adhesive Dots, and I created all

these flowers. They are Samantha Walker Cuts- with my Cameo.

(The butterflies too!).

 After that I glittered the Clear Scraps Frame, used my Xyron Teresa Collins

Adhesive Kit to adhere the glitter. 

Then I took my Connie Crystal strands and hot glued them on the canvas. 

For the word ART I used Maya Road Chipboard and I inked it with 

Clearsnap copper and Teal inks to make it look rusted. 

Then when I was completely done I misted the project lightly 

with gold and pink paints. 

I love it. It was fun to make and very therapuetic!

Happy Monday friends! :)
