Monogrammed {{CHEVRON}} Canvas
MY FIRST ***CHEVRON*** CRAFT!
NOW I must say that its not a super pointed peaked Chevron pattern, that is because on my Platinum Schoolbook Cartridge for my Cricut I had a zig zag pattern. You could use painters tape and hand do it that way, but I didn’t have any, plus I was to lazy. So I cut out the zig zag pattern, used mini glue dots to better hold the paper down. Then I used black acrylic paint to paint the Canvas Corp Board. with a sponge brush. Let Dry.
It doesn’t bother me in the slightest that the chevron pattern isn’t perfect, I like it to look a bit rustic if you will. Next I used a smaller Canvas Corp. board and painted around the edges with black acrylic paint.
then I cut an L out of my Platinum Schoolbook Cricut Cartridge, and again used mini glue dots to help hold it down. Then painted over it with red berry barn and bright red acrylic paint mixed together and dabbed the paint on. Let dry.
Lastly, I hot glued the smaller canvas board to the larger one, and then cut out a small square piece of light burlap and hot glued the burlap to the board and the dark grey flower on top of the burlap.
I love this!! Looks fabulous and I agree – the rustic look is perfect for this piece 🙂
LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Great job!!
Really cute! I think it came together perfectly. I haven’t done a chevron project yet either 🙂
This is awesomeness at it’s finest!!
GAH!!!!! This is fabulous!!! I am IN LOVE!!! Jen, make me one??? JK! 🙂
Jen, WOW this is my favorite craft. You outdid yourself. LOVE IT
Super cute. Love the rosette. The chevron pattern is so classic and clean looking to me, I can’t see enough of it ;).
Tuned out great! What a fun project!
I think it turned out great! How are you feeling this week?
Yep, I’m in (as you say)”Lurve” it.
Another fabulous idea! I def want to try this with my own twist of course 🙂 to put in my kitchen area! I might have to pull out my first generation cricut machine (which I only used once *shock*) and see if I can print out a block letter. lol
This is so great, I love the 3D effect! I’d love for you to share it at my Share the Wealth Wednesday Link Party at http://www.laughloveandcraft.com
