Hi Love My Tapes fans! JJ here again, this time with a mixed media canvas for Valentine's Day.
After preparing my background, I applied several designs of fabric and lace tapes in repeating stripes. Having the self-adhesive tapes made it so easy to get everything to stay exactly where I wanted it, especially when I sealed the entire canvas with a gel medium top coat at the end.
For the dimensional hearts, I placed the fabric sheets on chipboard, then die-cut the shapes. Sticking the fabric to the chipboard first makes sure that you will get perfect alignment - so much easier than trying to die cut them separately!
Thanks for visiting,
JJ
