Mother Gooose Canvas Board

Hi friends! Linsey here sharing my Mother Goose Mixed Media Canvas Board! This is one of my most favorite projects I've ever made to date and I hope you'll enjoy it too! Maybe even be inspired to create a mixed media project with ribbon and trim of your very own!

I used some White Crochet Lace Trims adhered with Mod Podge glue which works really well.

For the banner, I used Wheat Stripe Diva Collection Baker's Twine and added lots of mulberry flowers including Red Open Roses, Mixed Earth Tone and White Open Roses, Sweetheart Blossoms White with Red Center, White Cosmos Daisy Stem Flowers, Mixed Blue/Aqua Cherry Blossoms and WOC White Spiral Stamens. 

I hope you like it! I really enjoyed designing it! I find mixed media art to be very fun and carefree. Very little stress and lots of room for happy little accidents! 😊 Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time, happy crafting! 

Creativity by Tracey Sabella

Hi everyone, it's Tracey with my final post for Really Reasonable Ribbon. I'd like to thank Bonnie for the wonderful opportunity to work with her amazing ribbon and other products here on the RRR Design Team.  Creativity has always been an important part of my life. Even as a little girl, I could be found sewing up clothes for my dolls or crocheting little book marks. Paper crafting has been a fabulous creative outlet for me. This layout is about how creativity is my happy place and features Really Reasonable Ribbon Seam Binding, Wild Orchid Craft Flowers, and adhesives.  "Creativity"

Tips and Techniques:

I created this bow using White Seam Binding and my Zutter Bow-it-All. My tutorial for coloring and wrinkling seam binding can be found here. Bonnie has a couple wonderful and easy to understand video tutorials showing how to created gorgeous bows using the Bow-it-All. She is also giving away a Bow-it-All!! Stop by this blog post for video links and to enter the drawing with Rafflecopter: Bow-it-All Giveaway and Video Links I used a mix of flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon and my stash. Here you can see the 20mm White Open Rose and Chrysanthemum. I dry brushed most of my flowers and metal flourish with gesso.  You can see my mixed media background where I've stenciled, misted and brushed with gesso. The gorgeous Dusty Attic Ornate Gate was simply painted with white spray gesso. 

More Really Reasonable Ribbon Flowers ~ Chrysanthemum, Cottage Rose, and Open Rose. I've been trying to use up items from my stash and here you can see these sweet epoxy stickers that I tucked around this cluster. I tucked in some White Crochet Lace below and above my photo. Scor-Tape works beautifully for adhering lace and ribbon!! 

I painted this butterfly chipboard piece with metallic paints and dry brushed with gesso. The metal piece is also brushed with gesso. This cluster features Chrysanthemums, Cherry Blossom, Cosmos, and a sweet Open Rose. 

I hope you've been inspired to grab your RRR ribbon and flowers and create a layout or card today!!
