·                Cut C92 008 (mauve side up) to measure 3.5 x 7.5 inches and match the upper end of your tag; chalk with mauve and distress the edges; adhere to your base tag

·                Select one of the tags from your carders pack (plain side up); distress the edges and then adhere it to C92 005 (trees side up); fussy cut around the edges and then adhere to the left hand portion of your tag

·                Adhere the ‘best friends’ sticker from ST92 002 to a discarded piece of paper from your carders pack (plain side up); fussy cut it out.  Adhere this to a piece of mauve cardstock and fussy cut it out.  Adhere this to a piece of leftover blue cardstock and fussy cut it out.  Finally, adhere this to a piece of paper from your carders pack – I selected the piece with the single peach tree; fussy cut out.  Set aside

·                Adhere the row of birds from your ST92 001 sticker sheet to a piece of paper from your carders pack (plain side up).  Cut it out and round of both short edges (as shown).  Adhere this to a strip from C92 003 (teal side up) and fussy cut out to; adhere a double layer of gauze to the back of this, using double sided tape

·                Adhere your row of birds piece to the lower right hand portion of your tag, so that it overlaps the adhered die cut tag

·                Adhere your ‘best friends’ sticker creation to the far left of your die cut tag (it will overlap the row of birds slightly) using foam dots

GUEST DESIGNER!

JOSEFINE FOURAGE

Josefine, our guest designer, created a beautiful African canvas using our C91 Call from the Wild Collection.  See below how she created this gorgeous canvas.

Hi everyone. My name is Josefine (aka HolyLise) and I’m thrilled to be guest designing for FabScraps today! FabScraps is my favorite brand for chipboard die cuts and paper for mixed media projects. I can’t even begin to tell you how much this opportunity means to me :D

But before I get all sentimental, here is the canvas that I created using the new Call from the Wild Collection.

I started by cutting the front page from the chipboard album into shape and adhered strips of the call of the wild paper on top. After the gel medium dried, I traced the Africa shape with my craft knife to get rid of all the access paper.

Then I gessoed it, so the colors were a little more muted and added some animal shapes with the Wild Animals stencil.

The paper has some really pretty animal photography on it, so I decided to cut some of the shapes out and adhere them to the continent. Now I painted over it with several shades of green and blue acrylic paint as well as some gold shimmering ink. I ended up adding two layers of paint, plus another layer of gesso.

While I was waiting for everything to dry, I separated the two trees from their frame. Now I colored that frame and the word “Africa” in dark blue and added some gold sparkle on top. I wanted the bigger tree to stand out from the background, so I gessoed it first and sprayed two shades of green ink on it afterwards.

For the canvas, I used black paint and added white spritzer on top in the hopes that it looks like a night sky. I sure hope that I was successful with it.

At the end I adhered the Africa shape to the canvas. Then I glued the frame, tree and the word die cut on top of it and finished everything up with some flowers.

I hope you enjoyed my guest project for FabScraps. I sure had a lot of fun creating this canvas and it will have a special place in my craft room.
