Bossy Joscie by Lorena

Hello everyone! It's Lorena here with a project that combines goodies from SRM and Bossy Joscie. One can never have enough tags ready for the Christmas Season, right? I made a tag trio that came together in no time thanks to this lovely products.

The sentiments come from We've Got Your Sticker - Merry. It has lots of bold sentiments perfect for this time of the year! I also used Sticker Stitches - to "hang" my flair ornaments. Isn't that Bossy Joscie flair adorable? Love the modern twist!

Ready for fun?  Here's tag 1!



Tag #2

Tag #3

And a group pic :)

I used Stone solid twine that combined perfectly with the grey tones in the flair, and finished each tag with a dip in white embossing powder to give them a "snowy" touch. Both the tags and the bows were die cut with dies from my stash.  So that's it, three more tags down! Thanks for visiting!

Be sure to leave a comment for a chance to WIN a prize packet of Bossy Joscie and SRM goodness! 

Mixed Media Canvas & Video by Shery

Shery Russ is here with us today with a fabulous project, an 8" by 10" mixed media canvas PLUS a video featuring the Scalloped Circle Punched Pieces. All of our design team members are loving these punched pieces! The are on almost every project.  As soon as Shery saw her Punched Pieces, she wanted to use them in a mixed media project.  It's interesting that something as simple as punched scalloped circles have become such a Design Team favorite! 

Shery partially stamped a daisy (one she had illustrated) on 3 white large scalloped circle punched pieces, watercolored them with Inktense blocks, and then inked/sponged the edges with Ranger archival ink, Coffee. 

She layered the large punched pieces with black medium scalloped circles. See her video and how she has added SRM 4" Doilies and black Sticker Stitches to the mix.

To create the textured background on the canvas, Shery started by adhering designer paper with a newsprint design using gel medium. Next, she applied an uneven coat of gesso all over to lighten the background. She used modeling paste onto the 12" by 12" Love Post and Sketch Grid stencils from The Crafter's Workshop. Shery simply built on the background from there, adding distress paints, Gelatos, and rub-ons as she went along. Shery also added some Sticker Stitches and finished the canvas by partially stamping a script stamp all over.  I love how so many different products that are probably in your stash can be used together with SRM products to create so many amazing projects.  

Here's another look at the finished canvas. Shery's got a video showing how she made this from start to finish and you'll find it HERE.

 I hope you're inspired by Shery's canvas and that you enjoyed the video!  I love how SRM's Clear Stickers are perfect for Mixed Media and I'm tickled how much Shery loves her Punched Pieces and how she's added them into the Mixed Media mix.  Fantastic project!
