Here she is hard at work with the tissue tape....
.....and here is the box now....all waiting to be filled with bits and pieces!! I think she did a great job!!!
At the other table in our craft room was Bethany who asked if I could show her how to make a canvas. With pleasure.....
She started off by spraying Dylusions Ink Sprays though a variety of masks, then adding a few dribbles and drizzles and some black & white highlights!! T'was already looking good!!
After drying it off (action shot....and check out those eyelashes!!) it was time for some stamping. She chose a couple of Stampotique stamps....Fab Moth which was stamped onto card and coloured with Distress Inks, and Bird in Cage stamped onto ink sprayed canvas and coloured with more Dylusions.
The words are from one of her favourite songs by Frank Turner (also a favourite of hers, although I have no idea what he sounds like!!). These were printed, cut, stuck on, then edged with black pen and coloured with oil pastels. She wanted the bird cage to hang so with a bit of trial and error, we managed that too!!
Here is the finished piece....I think it's just FAB!!! She did so well, and is now keen to do some more.....so watch this space!!!
See you soon!

You will need to watch all your stash, I know with my G-daughter it's can I use this and can I use that! The canvas is fab and Mum's box looks good that tape can be quite difficult to stick. Very artistic family it must be in the genes. xx

Both you and Bethany must take after Mum, her box is looking good, and as for the canvas, well, it's FANTASTIC, she's certainly got the creative spirit in her, my fav colours as well. Has she put it on the wall yet? xx
