French Easter Art using "Americana Decor CHALKY finish" paint

Hitting Replay today and showing you

how you can make some fun French Easter Art!

I got to try out the NEW AMERICANA Decor Chalky Finish paint and was

itching to try it out.

I was wracking my brain on what I wanted to use it on when I remembered a bunch 

of craft boards a friend had me rescue from her garage. 

Once I saw it the first thing I thought of was EGG...and with EGG I thought EASTER...

so I got to work.

 

I grabbed my Americana Decor paint and mixed up a little custom paint.

I wanted a slight pink..not to much..so I didn't mix all the way.

I wanted it to look blended on the board.. I used the colors Camel and Lace.

I loved that it was PINK but not TOO pink.

When the paint was dry I used Americanas French script stencil for my background.

I used my stencil brush and the LACE chalky finish paint to stencil on my script.

I was in love already and was loving how the paint was working all together.

This is where it gets even more fun. I used my Silhouette to

cut out a BUNNY shape (you could also use carbon paper and a bunny picture and simply

transfer on and paint a bunny) 

I used Americanas Chalky finish "NEW LIFE" to stencil on the bunny

and the french words "JOYEUSES PAQUES" which in french means

HAPPY EASTER. 

I thought it went perfect with the french script stencil.

 

to finish it off, I paired it with my little ceramic Bunny Family that my 

Momma passed on down to me...

I loved looking at them every Easter on the mantle (even thought the big one wearing the guitar was one I found thrifting so it matched my 4 kids) 

and now my kids get to grow up seeing it on my mantle....THAT IS...if they or I don't break it..

But I figure if it made it through me and my 14 siblings....

IT SHOULD in theory...make it here!

I hope you enjoyed the fun EASTER craft..(I can't believe for once I actually have a season up early)

and until next time...

Make someones day BEAUTIFUL!

Hugs,

Karin
