Canvas & Stencils

I think my Stenil blitz is almost over, but I hope you have been able to see the numerous projects you can make with this great product.  Todays project uses the stencil on Canvas.  I love making these scrapbooking canvas because no one ever pounds on my door to see my scrapbooks.  However, when they walk in my door, this is what they see.  I have them all over the place.  I used Acrylic Paint on the canvas with the stencil.  Worked like a charm.  Even better was using sponge daubers with them.  Here is a close up:

I also used Acrylic paint on the pretties flowers.  You can see all the products used at the bottom of this post. 

Okay, so I rarely save any retired sets unless I can see that I will use it for a craft fair or for one of my darling kiddo’s.  Last night I had to make FAST invitations for Brandons birthday party this coming weekend.  As usual, riding by the seat of my pants.  I used the retired set Ahoy Matey.  I miss this stamp set.  Here is his invitation and needless to say he was a tickled pirate when he went to bed last night. 

I LoVe that Circle Scallop Die Cut and then I used the Textured Impressions plate #4 for the bottom of the card and it looks so REAL!!!  In fact, I have a trick for the textured plates I hope to video soon.  *wink* 

Anyways, I know the set is retired but you can see I had fun making these little invites.  Now to finish the party planning.  YIKES!
