Hi all! Took me a few days but I finally got around to editing a video tutorial I made on how to make this Shabby-Chic wall art piece using another NEW Stencil I designed for The Crafter's Workshop and using some of my Maja Design papers...
I used the 6x6 and 12x12 'Complicated Hearts' stencil to create the heart medallions that were the centerpieces of the wall hanging and to decorate the frame.
I also used the Coffee in the Arbour and Sofiero collection papers by Maja Design to matte my heart designs and add interest to the frame.
Here is a step by step video tutorial I made up showing how I used the stencils to make this piece of Shabby-chic wall art....Enjoy!....
Hope you enjoyed my video tutorial! Here are a few close-ups of each of the panels on this wall hanging....
I used the 12x12 stencil to add the larger houndstooth design to the framework of the top panel. I also used the Crackled Textures stamp I designed for The Scrapbook Diaries on the frame as well.
I used some grey chalk ink (Prima - Old Road) to bring up the textures I added to the framework with my stencil and home-made texture paste.
NOTE: My stencils have just been released to be ordered by retailers HERE ....this link is for retailers only....You can purchase these stencils at any retailer that carries The Crafter's Workshop Stencils (TCW)....I know that Janene, at The Scrapbook Diaries has then up for PRE-ORDER right now, you can find them HERE. (my Crackle Textures Stamp set can be found there as well) xo
