Spring Mixed Media Project

Melody Rupple | Maya Road

Here's a Spring Home Decor Project to brighten up your home and we move in a new season.

I started with a 8 x 8 inch burlap canvas. Next I cut a piece of patterned paper, slightly smaller than the canvas, and machine stitched around the edges. I distressed the edges of the paper, sponged on distress ink, and attached the paper to the burlap. 


I played with my embellishments and die cuts until I was happy with the arrangement. Then I got out my glue gun and attached a Kraft Die Cut Doily to the center of the canvas. 


I used a die to cut the cross and the sentiment. At the bottom I added lace and twine.
