Scarecrow canvas project



The Glittern Gals SU group met at my house Sunday to make this adorable Scarecrow canvas.

We used asw many Stampin Up materials as we could. Here is Sharon and Debbie working on the background of their canvases. They had to paint the edges black, cut their background dsp and stencil on the black polka dots using the stencil from the Build a Banner kit. They used Mod Podge to glue the dsp to the canvan, Then they added a square of burlap and a smaller square of a coordinating dsp.

 Luana is adding glitter to the big daisy that will embellish the scarecrows hat. The daisy was die cut using the big shot machine.

 Another view of Sharon and Debbie attaching the burlag to the canvas using Mod Podge.

In the other room Heather, Jennifer, Michele, Luana and Terri are working on their canvases. There was a lot of prep work that had to be done before they could begin attaching everything to the canvas.

Here is a group shot of the finished projects. They all followed the same dierctions and had the same pattern, but each scarecrows had is own unique expression. So cute!

Can't wait to have the Christmas Canvas Class!

These fellows were made by the SASSSC girls at our retreat last month.

Fall Wreath with rosette

I fell in love with the wreath I saw at convention that was in a pot. This was soooo easy to make using the new Simply Scored that is coming out in the Holiday mini September 1st. You are going to want one!!I love it so much better that my Score Pal, and it cost less! Most of the rosettes are made using Spice Cake dsp (also in the Holiday mini).
For the large rosettes I used two 2 x 12" strips of dsp, scored every 1/2" and glued together with two-way glue pen. The smaller rosettes were 1 1/2" x 12, and the smallest was 1x12". They are assembled using hot glue. I started with sticky strips, but they only held for awhile. The large buttons are the Spice Cake designer buttons, really big! The Give Thanks is Hand-Penned Holidays (holiday mini) and the stamped leaves are from the set Gently Falling, also new.

Spooky Coasters

These are the coaster decorations that the SASSSC girls made at the Diva Retreat. Each was given a package that contained 6 4x4 coasters, the letters to spell out "spooky" that were die cut with the big shot, and one embossed spider web. Everyone used their own paper and additional embellishments. I think they turned out fantastic! I want to thank the designer of this idea, who ever you are!

Since I had already made a "spooky" set, I decided to make a "merry" set at the retreat.

3 D pumpkin

This is a pumpkin that one of the members of my demonstartors group made and shared with us at our last meeting. It is made using the tab punch.
