NYC or bust.....

Howdy Peeps.....

Here is my "NYC ARTSY" canvas bag
I created for Winter CHA ~ 2013. 

I designed and created the canvas bag
from Canvas Corp ~ Canvas.
and embellished with the New York Destination Papers
Along with.....LOTS of Viva Colour Pearl Pens!!! 

I began by image transfering various images from
the New York Destination Collection
to different size pieces of Canvas Corp ~ Canvas
using Claudine Hellmuth's ~ Multi Medium ~ Matte.

I chose to use Pearl Pens to color 
the canvas bag and embellies
because they are fully washable when dry!!
What an AWESOME FEATURE!!!

SOOOO....I dipped the caps of the Pearl Pens
into puddles of Pearl Pen and stamped with it,
colored the Petaloo Canvas Flowers with it...
and I found that if I spritzed it with
water or my favorite Radiant Rain Shimmering Mist
when freshly applied....
they could be easily manipulated.
.....and it splatters REALLY WELL, too!!! 

A good example is the matching wallet I made.

I love that it is even dimensional!!!

Hope you have enjoyed my ARTSY creation as
much as I did making it!!!
