WK 6 Premium Craft Brand Challenge Fabric/ Canvas and colour with PP`s

Hello sweet friends, Sunday again which means a brand new challenge over at

Premium Craft Brands

Pan Pastel Challenge

and the theme for you all is

Anything Goes

but the design team was given the added challenge of using

Fabric/ Canvas with Pan Pastels to colour.

I had a look around my shed and gathered some supplies -

A very old tin frame { gift }

 leftover cotton fabric

 Barok Stencil

Pan Pastels - Hansa Yellow Shade, Permanent Red

Maimeri Gesso, Matt Gel

thread, old book pages

A quick coat of Gesso was applied and to speed up drying time I used a heat tool.

I am ever sooo impatient!

Time to apply the Pan Pastels through the stencil with a blending brush,

 I alternated the colours from side to side, not worrying if the colours blended slightly together.

A quick mist of cheap hairspray was added to fix the PP`s in place.

I love old books and forever finding snippets to chop out and use on my projects.

I have used Maimeri Matt Gel to fix the words in place.

At this point I thought I was finished and popped it into that beautiful frame

BUT

oh noooo it was missing something, lol

Yes indeed , it needed some wonky tonky stitching in a matching thread.

No straight lines and I love the loose threads scattered around.

Back it went into the frame and I was now happy!

I think I might transfer this idea onto cards for someone special . . . what do you think?

Well that`s all from me for now, be sure check out the challenge blog for all the details and more inspiration HERE.

Till next time

Happy Crafting

XOXOXO
