Believe - Phyllis

We all need something to believe in and right now we believe that Phyllis has created another masterpiece!

This is a mixed media dream!

For this project, Phyllis began to add texture to her canvas with stencils and white sand texture paste, adding pops of color using Finnabair's acrylic paints from Prima Marketing. She added cheesecloth and fibers to soften the background and started layering with Prima flowers, a wooden shutter and a vintage image from Tim Holtz.

Tucked into all those details you will find Scrapaholics chipboards, including : the word believe from our Imagine Word Set, Butterfly Medley, Whimsy Vine sets 2, 3 and 4 & Fairy Wings. Phyllis painted the Believe, Medley, Vine Sets and Fairy Wings with the Finnabair paint before sprinkling them with glitter for some extra pop.

In true Phyllis fashion, she finished off this stunning canvas with texture using art stones, standard beads and microbeads.

Tracey Stubbs is the Owner and Operator of Scrapaholics Scrapbook Supply and Chipboard. She fell in love with Scrapbooking over 20 years ago when her children were little and enjoyed the obsession as a hobby Over the years, Tracey watched as paper crafting evolved into such a wide array of possibility with all sorts of media you could use to decorate a project. In 2013 she discovered chipboard and fell in love! She added some to her online store and they became a number one seller. Eventually she purchased her own equipment and supplies to make her own laser-cut chipboard creations and we have the Scrapaholics you see today. Through Tracey's hard work and dedication to the craft her collections are available to the public on her website as well as Etsy, to stores and other retail locations and she has a full design team who works hard to show off her creations so others might be inspired.

Cristina Cunningham lives in NY and is a mom and new grandma. She has been crafting in one way or another since college, but discovered scrapbooking when her oldest was born. Her love for paper crafts grew from there. Cristina’s style is shabby and feminine, her favorite projects revolving around memory-keeping; however, she also enjoys making junk journals, cards and altered pieces, as well. When she isn’t scrapbooking, you can find her whipping up a favorite meal in the kitchen or decorating some obscure corner of her house.
