Finally have an entry for the Sunday Stampers challenge over at
Hels This is a belated Christmas present for someone. I've used a 5x7" canvas board - 6 for £1.99 at The Works. Firstly used gel medium with a Crafters Workshop stencil at the top of the board and also used the gel with some plastic mesh in a couple of places. I then painted using Eco-Friendly (by EcoGreen Crafts) Peony with a little bit of Eco-Friendly Waterfall. I love the colour of these paints :-) The heart is made from Grungepaper, embossed with thick embossing powders and stamped into. Then stamped the background with a variety of stamps added a little strip of Sinamay wrapped some linen thread round and added the buttons. the 'diamonds' for the SS theme this week are at the top of the board; part of the stencil. I made the hanger out of wire that's a bit thinner than wire coat-hangers.
(Sinamay is the stiff fabric used in hat making. It's very stiff but can be moulded into shape when wet. You can also get it in a variety of colours)
