Clear Scraps Project Post

Hello and happy Monday! It's Jennifer on the blog today to share a canvas I created with one of the new XL Script Wood Words!  These new products have a variety of uses from wreaths to standing alone! They also make a bold title for layouts as I've done here for my canvas! I  thought the Family XL Script Wood Word worked perfectly with a favorite photo of my kids with my niece and nephew.  

To distress my XL Script Wood Word, I  first painted it in a grey chalk paint. After allowing it to dry, I  used a tea light candle to rub wax over the surface of my Wood Word.  Next, I  painted with white chalk paint in small sections scraping off the excess as I  went. This helps create the worn look you see here.  For reference, I'm attaching an older YouTube video in which I  used this same technique.

I  then attached my XL Script Wood Word to my page using Beacon 3-in-1 Adhesive.  Using embellishments from the collection I  used, I    added accents around my title.  

Thank you for coming to the blog and reading! Check out the XL Script Wood Words in the Clear Scraps shop! Have a great day!
