altered canvas centerpiece

i have been on a delayed mode since the start of the year, so i made this interesting project for artzdescrap as a way of reviving some creativity in me and for them.

i used the maya road canvas dressform which is so cool!

using Prima mask and Maya road mists... as pattern for the canvas.

stamp layering at artzdescrap

this month, the crew at artzdescrap will create works of art with stamp layering as the main attraction. stamp layering is layering stamps in different positions or in different mediums using your stamps. for my take, i stamped on gel medium atop of my stamped image creating sort of a blurry distressed look on your work on that stamped part.

if you have some gel mediums at hand, try to stamp different images on it for that unique look.

explosion box

for the month of july, a tutorial by our resident designer Felicia will give you a blast with her explosion box!! visit artzdescrap for details.

here is my take.

altered maya road tin can

this is my take for Artzdescrap's july challenge... i used a Maya Road tin can as a lunch box. for the handle, i used a fabric tape for the grip look. american crafts pattern papers are also included here. flowers from prima, making memories masking tape, prima transparent tape and wrmk ribbons are some supplies used.

after making the tin can, it looked better inside my storage area... i know you have lots of these tin cans as packages and some might accidentally throw them away to lessen their stuffs but mind you, when you dispose them, you lose half of your decorative creativity! so alter them and give it away to someone, use it as lunchboxes ( as our challenge for this month is). that way, they don't end up in garbages.

so do not throw those away pleassse.. make use of them. create. save the earth.

here is my finished product

for our april challenge, the crew will alter a plate.

i chose to alter a square recyclable plate made of corn ( i think.). it is a local product and this plate is very durable. the texture of this product makes a very good base to paint on with. 

a storage for all...

i have so much of these chipboards from old stash. i think the plate fits its role.
