Canvas Play Flying Unicorn

 Hey guys! Here today to show ya a canvas that I have been playing with. It all started with a photo that my DH just loves of him and the kids. I had some really cool 13 Arts papers, mediums, mists and paints. Some crazy cool Creative Embellishment chippies.  By the way these will be coming to the Flying Unicorn store very soon! So away I went to create a canvas for him. Here are my results..


 The orange from the 13 Arts paper "Remember when", from the "Timeless" collection reminded me of a sunset. I have loved seeing the sun rays stencils, and I don't seem to have one in my stash yet.. Hummm Whats wrong with me?! LOL That is soon to be fixed, but it didn't help me at this time. Soooo I made my own! Very easy I just used the corners of my paper and made wide marks out alternating the spaces and then cut out every other one.  I would slant my ruler to go to a imaginary center to get my angles. Worked pretty well! I surprisingly have a ton of hues of the sunset.  I had no clue I had. Seems this was a meant to be project! Here are some close ups..




Here is what I used:
Canvas, Windsor and Newton 10x10
13 Arts Timeless Collection- Remember When, Perfect moment, Long time ago
Prima stamp- Finnabair  Item #960988
Kaisercraft stamp- Script
Petaloo flowers- Forget me nots Antique Peach, Canterbury Rose Lemon
The Crafters Workshop Mask- Art Is
Dusty Attic- Cogs
Creative Embellishments- Steampunk balloon, "Beautiful Day" title (coming soon to the Flying Unicorn store)
Heart Doily- my stash
Stazon- Blazing Red and Black
Mesh tape
Prima inker- Black coal

Mediums and paints
13arts- Gesso, Mists Chalk yellow, Burnt Sienna, Paint Lemon
Golden- Gesso
Lumiere- Metallic Bronze, Mettallic Rust
Lindy's- Cocoa Bean Copper
Tim Holtz- Distress paint Vintage Photo
Claudine Hellmuth- Altered orange

Hope you enjoyed! Have a great day!!

*** Canvas January KOM Flying Unicorn ***

 Back today to show you a canvas that I did using the new January KOM. Ok so I don't have a lot of canvas under my belt. I think that I do want to do more however!

 That is the perfect thing about new design of the kits. You have choices on the kits that best suit your need. I do recommend if you are able to get them all DO IT! You get everything a scrapper could want. This kit would be my buget for my scrappy supplies for a month! Everything that I could want to do and things that I would want to try and gain knowledge on the most sought after supplies in the industry are in each kit! Like I said everything one would need!!  Ok off my soapbox! Just a weeee bit pumped on our KOM! LOL Here is my canvas..


I have been dying to try out the 13 arts paints! This KIT HAD THEM!! Cool Kaiser stamps and Lindy's mist and Mixed Media Inx (color that I didn't have in my stash)!!!!!!! Yippie and a canvas to boot! only 3 things that I used that wasn't in the kit. The word stamp by LaBlanche, Prima mask and some texture gel. The circles are bubble wrap and most have that so I am not really counting that. I really had fun doing this and trying the new paints! Sooo much fun!! Here are some close ups..



Thank you for joining me today! I really hope you got your hands on this kit! It is SOOO FUN!!

***OTP KOM January Flying Unicorn***

 Hey all! Sharing my OTP from the January KOM with ya today. This is one of my projects!! I had a blast putting it together! I think that we have all been swayed to the mixed media side of the scrapbooking world. I know that I have! Here is my journal cover...

I have used Prima Mechanicals, Prima mask, most all of the Chippies are Creative Embellishments (my fave chippies to use!) there are a few DA cogs, TH gears and cogs, The Crafters Workshop masks the gears and cogs and then Dots and dashes are also TCW. The keys on a chain is some that I have had in my stash for a long time just waiting on a home. The mediums used was, tissue that I get with these gorgeous kits, gesso, molding paste and Jacquards. I did use some Stazon ink in brown and a little inker.

I love this Journal too! It is packed with different kinds of pages just waiting to be altered! Weeee Can't wait!! Here are a few close ups!


You will love this KIT I promise! It is my FAVE to date!  I adore our new way that these kits have been put together Alda is a genius! Hang around more coming soon!

*** LO's Using the New KOM January Flying Unicorn ***

 Hi all! Here today to show you my LO's using our gorgeous KOM! I am still in love with this kit and still will be playing with it! The papers in this kit from Jodie Lee and Finn are AMAZING! I love them soooo much!!

 The first one is of my cousin who is in Japan expecting her first baby with her new husband. I have been keeping an eye on her during her pregnancy on FB. Snagging a picture or 2 of her to help her remember this time in her life. She is 30wks in this LO. The cool Mechanicals from prima in this kit are the Roman numbers. So I used them to hold a time of 30. I thought that was pretty cool. Here is the LO


I find it easier to tell you what I used that is NOT in the kit.. LOL Because just about everything I use is in the KIT.. Only a few exceptions here as well. But most of the time we have them in the store. So no worries! :) Other products used.. Kaisercraft rubbons, pink flowers from Petaloo, TCW mask, Prima clock, TH tape and distress ink, and Doilies.

Here are some close ups..


On to my next LO.. This one is of my sweet little great Nieces! They are so sweet.. I enjoy seeing these girls at our family get togethers. My they have really grown too! I was excited when I got this pics from my Niece with the girls together. My sister in law had all boys. So when her DIL had little girls everyone was excited. But I don't think anymore than her! LOL Here is the LO


I used every drop of the lace that came in this kit! LOL I love lace so much and I am thrilled that we have it in the store too!! The only things that I added was the dress form stamp, the dot stamp, the Alpha and Jacquard paint, black gesso, black little inker. Everything else is in the kit! I must say the flowers in this kit are DELISH!! Here are some close ups..



Thank you for joining me! Have a great day!! :)
