Brand New Vicki Boutin Field Notes line with American Crafts

I LOVE the new Field Notes line by Vicki Boutin!! It is stunning!


As soon as I saw the Take Flight paper, I knew those rainbow moths had to be the focal point of a page. I went hunting for some rainbow yarn, inspired by the colors in the Field Notes line. I actually created this entire layout at the Scrap Gals Retreat in Seattle, and it was sooooo fun! 



 Close up, you can see the little splatters made with the Vicki Boutin Water Brushes and her Art Crayons. I love to make watercolors with the art crayons, and they coordinate with all the Vicki Boutin papers! Love!

Look at the beautiful die cuts and washi tape, and some paper from the Field Notes line- gorgeous!


Thank you for visiting today, and happy crafting!

*BRAND NEW American Crafts Color Pour Fluid Painting Kits!

I am so excited to share a brand new line of products from American Crafts, available at Joann Stores nationwide!!
The American Crafts Color Pour line!


American Crafts has made it easy to get great results on your first try! I love the way these two paintings with the same colors turned out completely different! You will get a unique result each time!



A close up of the packaging so you know what to look for at your local Joann Store! Available August 6th!




This close up view shows you the cell details that can be achieved with the American Crafts Cell Magic product!! 



The second painting I created because I had enough paint in my pour cups to do the whole thing again. It was easy to make a second painting while my supplies and plastic drop cloth were out and in place. Notice how the colors are different in this painting, even though the same exact paints were used!






Here is a process video to show exactly how the paint was mixed in the pour cups and flipped onto the canvas. I hope you get to try your hand at this new and on-trend painting technique!!
