The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Monday, September 05, 2005Canvas Collage I didn't make this for my craft column, I made it just for me. I took a 16x20 canvas, painted it and then used didfferent kinds of papers, stamps, embossing powder, gems and glitters to make this. My mom-in-law gave me a huge envelope of these old pictures from the 1920s, 30s, and 40s. This is one of them. I used it to mount in the center. I call this piece "Los Novios" because I think this couple looks tough. Like they are ready to go kick some fiesta booty. * By Kathy Cano Murillo, copyright 2005.

Hi Kathy. I went to Borders to buy your book, but they did not have any. In my heyday I was called the Queen of Makeit and Takeit because of all the projects I developed for so many "quickie" festival= art for kids. I use the same methodology as you did with your masks, drawing with glue, but the kids made rubbings. It worked well, was quick and able to service hundreds.
About Me
I'm a mommy, wifey, artist, author & left-handed middle-child binge crafter Sagittarian. I love chocolate, coffee, and I collect Chihuahua stuff (we have 4 live ones). I have my own product line coming out this summer. I write a weekly nationally syndicated craft column for The Arizona Republic. My 7th craft book comes out next year, as well as my first novel. I make a line of Chicano Pop Art with my hubby and we have sold it all over the country since 1990. Doing my best to live in the moment and savor it all!   Note to visitors: Hola! This site is the archive of all my past projects for Gannett News Service and The Arizona Republic. These ideas are for personal use only. I make a living as a craft designer, so I will be using these ideas in my published works. If you are thinking of selling or using these ideas for profit, please give respect and "twist" them to make them your own - put your own stamp on them to make them different. It will work out for the best for both of us! Thank you and much respect from one creative person to another! — Kathy Have a burning crafty question? Visit my Ask Crafty Chica blog or drop me a line!
