Try It Tuesday ~ Mixed Media Canvas Bags!


Hi guys!
Thanks for stopping in for


I have been creating using, stencils, a 6" X 6" gel-press and paint. 
Love it so much!!!  A little messy, but tons of fun !


Load the Gel-Press up with paint, then doodle in it and stamp ~ that's
 how these were done.  Simple process getting the canvas covered
with color.  Stencils were added with black paint.  Border stencils
were used with white paint.  Details added with a liner brush to
highlight areas on the bag.


Buttons were hand sewn on the front of the bags.  Trim added in the
zipper pull.  

Try it~ ok?
You will love the process and the really cool thing is, it is
really hard to mess up :)

Stencils: Darkroom Door, Clear Scraps,  DecoArt/Andy Skinner,

Canvas Bags~mixed media style!

Hi guys!
I made these for two special friends of my moms~
I hope they love them.  I had such a great time creating them.
I used  a bunch of different stencils from my stash!
The Gel Press was used with DecoArt paint to create the background
for the bag.   The stencils were applied with paint and a small sponge.

After the paint dried the iron was used to heat set the paint.

Supplies used:
DecoArt paint
Gel Press
Stencils: Darkroom Door, Clear Scraps, The Crafter's Workshop, 
Stencil 1 and Dylusions/Ranger.
Canvas bags were bought on Amazon.
Other: buttons, antique trim

Thanks for stopping by~
Merry Christmas to all!!
