Focus on the Good - Phyllis

We have another stunning mixed media canvas to share from Phyllis!

For this piece, Phyllis did some stenciling with two Finnabair stencils, using gesso and adding some extra texture with white crackle paste. She chose our Brick Pieces, Decorative Scroll Frame and Leafy Flourish 1 in the design, which she sprayed with Prima Color Bloom and acrylic paint. She also used Fairy Wings, which she heat embossed using two colors.

To finish it off, Phyllis added glitter glass, micro- and regular beads, as well as a sentiment and image from Tim Holtz Idealogy collection.

Take a peek at all of the amazing details on this piece!

Our Design Team

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.

Jeanne Rodriguez lives in Los Alamos, NM with her husband, five Maltese pups and one cat. She is mother to four grown children and has four grandchildren. Jeanne began crafting in 2013 as a therapeutic outlet to overcome depression. A lot of personal and career changes were taking place - she is a former fingerprint technician for a crime lab! Paper crafting became a way for her to express herself doing something that she found she loved. Jeanne loves scrapbooking, card making and mixed media and her style lends most to shabby chic and vintage with a little grunge mixed in.
