I get some really lovely comments and emails from you sweet ladies out there and one of the things I hear is that you'd like to be a fly on the wall while I'm creating a project! Well, you'd have to be a very patient fly because my projects can sometimes take a while! lol! But I also know that I really like watching these 'watch the process' videos, so I thought I would create another canvas, this time using the gorgeous Maja Design collection called 'Ska Vi ta en Fika' and some Dusty Attic chipboard pieces. I just love this paper collection, here is a little peek at it if you haven't seen it yet...
So without further ado, here is my video tutorial for my Vintage Dress Canvas! Grab yourself a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy!
I hope you enjoyed my tutorial! Here are a few close-ups in closer detail.
I'd love to hear what you all thought of the video and also what sorts of tutorials you would like to see in the future on my blog.....I love getting your feedback! Would you like to get your hands on some gorgeous new Maja Design collection papers? Be sure to stop by my blog on March 1st, I've got an exciting announcement for you all!!
Gabrielle, a lovely creation - it would look amazing in my room! LOL Thank you for the video to explain how to make on the canvas. I especially like the dimension in the dress, and the pretty, blingy beads around the swirl die cuts. Beautiful colors! Thank you for sharing. Of course you have been pinned! hugs, de

Gabrielle, how would I ever learn if I didn't have people like you to teach and inspire me?!! :) lol

Now, you inspired me again to continue what Id love before Thank you for sharing this. I wish to make one, one of your works and will absolutely read all your works when I have time. And will follow your blog.
