"But those who Hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on eagles wings,
they will run and not grow weary
and they will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:31
Is that not a wonderful promise?
This is the verse that I decided to create my latest Heartfelt Creations project around.
I decided that it would be perfect to create a canvas with. A wonderful project to hang on your wall and be reminded daily of God's promise to us.
I've used the gorgeous Countryside Evening Collection paper pack, and this is where you will find this Bible verse along with more verse and occasion panels.
Here's a peek at my canvas creation...
and here's a close up of the verse and bottom flower cluster...
I hope I'm leaving you inspired today!
Wouldn't a special handmade canvas be the perfect Christmas gift for someone this holiday season?
You still have time...and Heartfelt Creations store has so many beautiful paper packs to choose from!
Not to mention coordinating dies and stamps!
Be sure to check out all of the projects being shared by the design team today!
You'll never leave the Heartfelt Creations blog disappointed...well, maybe...but that's just because there aren't enough hours in the day to create each and every design! LOL
Until next time...

To begin
with project, paint canvas and set aside to dry. Choose two complimenting papers from the
Country Side Evening Collection Paper Pack in the color scheme you wish to work
with. Also choose a sentiment from the
verse/sentiment panels from the paper pack that you wish to feature in the
center of your creation. Cut the
patterned paper (beige on my canvas) that you wish to have as your background
to 8 ¾” x 6 ¾ “. The second
complimentary paper that you have chosen (blue in my example) will be cut to 8
½” x 6 ½”. Ink all edges of these papers
including the sentiment panel with brown ink for an aged vintage feel. Continuing to work with the smaller of the
two background pieces, proceed to stamp the Tattered Collage PreCut stamp onto
the center of the patterned paper with the Northern Pink Memento Ink. Allow to dry.
Cut the largest die cut from the Spellbinders Majestic Squares die set
in a coordinating solid color of your choice from the Country Side Evening
paper pack. Ink edges with the brown ink
and adhere the sentiment panel to the die cut.
Now adhere the two background papers together. Use a spray adhesive to adhere these
assembled papers to the canvas. Set
aside to let adhesive set. Moving back
to the die cut and sentiment panel piece, apply 3D pop up dots to the piece. Position and adhere to center of canvas.
Cut 2
corner die cuts using the Cut Mat Create 2B Set from a soft cream color within
the paper pack. Adhere to bottom left
corner, and top right corner (directions are looking at the canvas head
on). Moving along to the embellishing,
stamp each image in the Sun Kissed Fleur Swirls PreCut set in the Northern Pine
ink and allow to dry. Once dried, color
greenery and florals with distress markers listed above and fussy cut out the
images. Stamp Sun Kissed Fleur PreCut
Set twice for the flowers shown on this sample.
Use the colors listed above to color the leaf and flower images (I have
chosen to use two colors on some flowers and three on others to create depth
and different looks). Cut out images
with the coordinating Sun Kissed Fleur Die.
Shape flowers using molding mat and shaping tools, creating as many
dimensional flowers as you desire on your creation as well as leaving some just
as single layer blooms. A few tiny flowers can be let unshaped and will be
added to vines just as they are. Working
with the larger blooms, cover each petal and center with Glossy Accents to give
them a beautiful shine. Allow to
dry. (Leave smaller flowers that will go
onto vines just as they are with no gloss added). Snip apart the leaf die cuts to create 3
single leaves from each. Die cut the
floral flourish from the Cut Mat Created 2B Set three times with green
patterned paper included in the collection.
One full die cut will be used on the bottom of the creation, the other
two cut outs can be snipped to place them within the design on both top and
bottom corners. Ink each floral flourish
die cut with the Northern Pine Memento ink trying not to be too careful as you
want the green patterned paper to show through as well. Now begin arranging your fussy cut images
from the stamp set, the flowers, leaves and the flourishes until you are happy
with the arrangement. Once the final
placement has been determined begin to adhere to the canvas. Set aside for adhesive to dry. Find the perfect spot on your wall to hang,
or stand on easel stand!
