Inchies - Wrist Wrap

Hi there, Caroline here with my take on this weeks theme of Inchies!

I used some stenciled canvas left over from the Love Canvas I made for the dominoes theme, to create the inchies which I then made into a Wrist Wrap!


To create the design on the canvas I used the Harlequin mask with fabric ink.  The harlequin design was enhanced then with beads and buttons and bits!

Dominoes - Love Canvas

Hi all!  Caroline here with this weeks theme of 'Dominoes'.



I thought right outside the box here and decorated a canvas with fabric pieces the same size as a domino - 2"x1"!

I cut long strips of canvas two inches wide and then decorated them using Tando Creative's Harlequin mask and ink.

I then sewed each blank line created by the stencil, and cut into one inch lengths to create the separate dominoes.  I stitched each one onto an 8"x8" piece of canvas and added the 'love' sentiment which was stamped and then chain stitched before adding to the canvas.



This whole piece was sewn to a 10"x10" canvas which I had painted.  I added the framed effect by using the Stripes mask with some Viva Decor Terra.

I then decorated the whole piece with some seed beads.  I have to have busy hands whilst watching the TV!

One day in May: masks

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to our Mask week!
As you all know Tando Creative produce a LOT! of  the most gorgeous masks and you just need them all! Believe me, you do!
So here is my my scrapbooking page made with some of those masks.
This is my dear and only (for now) grandson Omer and I made this pretty " clean and simple" lo with his 2 photos, but it's still  kind of Mixed Media  page as I used masks, gesso, mists and paints all over this  page.

Two of Tando masks were used here: Have you Say  Andy Skinner mask   Harlequin and ones.
And here is the first one
And the second


As your can see both were used with white gesso and then I misted  the dry gesso a bit over it and we still can see the texture of those gorgeous masks.
 Now it's your turn: go the the shop, find a retailer as the shop here is a wholesale  and pick some great masks you can use over and over on your projects!
