Canvas MiniAlbums *Tattered Angels*

I want to show you two mini albums I had taught the last year and have not shown yet. They are both made with Canvas pages.

LiebeIstMinialbumTA_01

For the album I had cut out 6?x6? pieces of canvas fabric and then sprayed with different techniques with Glimmer Mist over Glimmer Screens and added our wonderful Screen Print Clear Stamps. A wonderful way to show that love is a lot of different little things in a relationship.

The second minialbum was created almost the same way – it is a 3×6? size.

I love how you can add lot’s of texture and techniques by adding canvas pages. One of my favorite things to play with is to see how different the Glimmer Mist settles on the non treated and treated side of  canvas fabric. As you can see in the “Liebe ist…” Album the Glimmer misted screen images are more subtile and a bit dreamy and blurry. This is because I used the gesso treated pages here. On the pages for the minialbum below I used the non-treated pages – so the Glimmer Mist could settle right in which ends in a very crisp and sharp image.

    Awesome Nat! I am working on a canvas album and wondered if I need to put a coat of something over the finished product? I think that it is untreated (it’s by Maya Road). Maybe I’ll review your online course for suggestions:-)

Banner *Tattered Angels and Punky Sprouts*

For my friends I created this banner using the amazing Punky Sprouts Album Sweetie Sprout as well as some yummie yummie Tattered Angels Products.

Für  Freunde habe ich diesen Banner gestaltet, indem ich das wunderschöne Punky Sprouts Album Sweetie Sprout auseinandergenommen habe und dazu noch yummie Tattered Angels Produkte verwendet habe.

The album has two canvas pages which I sprayed with Glimmer Mist and stamped with the Tattered Angels Architectural Trims. The acrylic pages btw were sprayed with Chalkboard Glimmer Mist and then stamped over- I so love the effect.

Das Album hat zwei Leinwandstoff-Seiten, die ich mit Glimmer Mist besprüht  und dann mit den Tattered Angels Architectural Trims bestempelt habe. Die Acryl-Seiten habe ich übrigens mit Chalkboard Glimmer Mist besprüht und dann ebenfalls bestempelt- ich liebe diesen Effekt.

I also sprayed the Punky Sprouts Bloomers with Glimmer Mist and flicked some Glimmer Glaze over them, then rolled them to flowers. Each one I did with a different technique.

Auch die Punky Sprouts Bloomers habe ich mit Glimmer Mist besprüht und dann ein wenig Glimmer Glaze mit dem Pinsel aufgeschnalzt. Dann habe ich die Bloomers zu Blumen gerollt.

For the Tattered Angels Framed Fonts on the pendant I used Glimmer Glam Organic Garden to paint them. And as there is no Ü in an American Alphabet I used Glimmer Glaze and simply added to dots on the U – I think that works just fine :)

Für die Tattered Angels Framed Fonts auf dem mittleren Banner habe ich Glimmer Glam Organic Garden verwendet. Und da es ja leider kein Ü im amerikanischen Alphabet gibt, habe ich Glimmer Glaze genommen und zwei Punkte auf das U gemalt- ich find das funktioniert ganz gut :)
