Kid´s Bookmark

My 10 year old son is really into books right now. He might read more than 5 books a week at some points. So I thought I would treat him with a nice & cool bookmark so use in this books.

I used a Linnie Blooms canvas long blank for his project. Covering it with 3 shades of mist and some stamps made the piece a bit funky. Then I stamped HÄR (here in English) with black permanent ink on a canvas arrow. I glued the arrow down with my trused heat glue gun and added a bit of tread and a badge as a finished detail. My son loves this and uses it all the time.

Material used: Linnie Blooms Long blanks & Canvas arrow. Heidi Swapp Color Shine in the colors Mint Green and Sweet Cherry (In the Linnie Blooms store). Stamps from Cocoa Daisy. Other inks from Ayeeda. Badge from 3rd Eye.

Playing with Canvas Pieces by Rochelle :)

Hello Crafters! It’s Rochelle today to share with you my projects that I created using Linnie Bloom’s Canvas Pieces.

For my first project I used Linnie Bloom’s Canvas Long Blank, Sunflowers, and Leaves. 

I started by covering the Long Blank with Tattered Angels mist and Dylusions Ink Spray and set aside to dry.  I then started to work on the Sunflowers. 

 I used Tattered Angels mist first to color the Sunflowers.  Once it dried I stamped a small patterned onto the lighter color Sunflower.  I then layered the Sunflowers with tule and topped it with a canvas sun shape from Studio Calico and a rhinestone from Queen & Co.  I didn’t do much with the leaves other then mixed the greens with Tattered Angels and a Gelato.

I finished my Long Blank by adding half of a doily, some tule, a paper doll I made with the Prima Paper Doll stamp, a tag that I stamped with a quote and stitching and added my title with Thickers.

My second project I wanted to share with you today is Canvas Flourish Pocket and a Canvas Owl from Linnie Blooms.  

I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with this pocket, but I definitely knew I was going to give it away as a present.  It’s perfect for adding a gift card or money into the pocket along with a tag.  

For the pocket, I started with coloring the pocket with a blue Gelato, then stamped it with hearts.  

For the the Canvas Owl, I stamped it and lightly inked the edges.  Then I added cardstock for the wings and Queen & Co. Rhinestones for the eyes. 

I always have so much fun creating with Linnie Blooms Canvas pieces! I hope these projects have inspired you to give it a try!  You can check out Linnie Blooms store HERE.

Thank you for stopping by Linnie Blooms Blog today! :)

Fun with shapes on a Blank.

One of my favorite products to play with is the Linnie Blooms Blanks.  Today I am showing how I did a layout by using one of the long blanks.  Super fun to play with.  This is going to hang in my craft room for now.. then my daughter wants it in her room.

I used a total of 7 of  the mixed media canvas shapes from Linnie Blooms.    I love how when using that many of one product you really don't loose the focus of the photos, everything blends well, and doesn't seem to take over the layout.

I used a long blank, book mark, linnie white textures, 3 banners, 1 house/arrow, and a heart. 



I love using this shape.. one of my favs.

Use this as a house or an arrow

Long Blank Canvas And Butterflies!

Hello Linnie Bloom Friends, 

Pinky here again-

Today I have a project to share using the amazing

Canvas Long Blank from Linnie Blooms.

I had a good time creating this canvas. 

I used Smooch Spritz which I spritzed in graduated

colors- them to mute it I spray painted over the smooch with regular almond color

spray paint. I love how effective it was. 

I stamped the butterflies and the vintage lace. 

I added embellishments for the pop. 

 Because I wanted texture I added Hambly acetate paper. 

This was a fun project with Linnie Blooms Canvas.

Today, it is my turn to bring you a project I created using Linnie Blooms canvas pieces.

I love the long blanks! You start with this:

Create your magic!

For my piece above, I applied a thin layer of gesso to the background.

I added a piece of Tim Holtz tissue tape.

With my fingers blended gelatos for the background.

Stamped the girl image and the word Magic.

Paper-pieced the girl's dress and socks.

Used a stencil and fiber paste for texture.

Stamped with paint and a bottle cap the circles.

If you haven't tried Linnie Bloom's canvas pieces, you are missing out.  They are fantastic to work with be it you are a cardmaker, scrapbooker, alterer, or mixed media artist.  They will add  just the touch you need to complete your project or for a complete project.  The possibilities are endless.
