Lavender Dress & Florals Mixed Media Canvas for Tres Jolie Kit Club

Welcome back everyone!

Today we are diving deep into paper layering and mixed media to crate this gorgeous, lavender vintage canvas using the 2026 June Scrapbook Kit from Tres Jolie Kit Club. If you love whimsical glam with shabby chic or vintage aesthetic you are going to love this project. We'll be combing beautiful distressed ephemera, frames, and floral clusters to build a textured masterpiece.

As always I have the step by step tutorial for you and the video tutorial.

Thanks for stopping by and Keep Curating Memories ~Deb

2026 June Scrapbook Kit 2026 June Mixed Media Kit

First we are going to paint the chipboard frame with black paint or gesso. I used black gesso. Set aside to dry.

Next we are going to cover the canvas with one of the design papers from the 2026 June Scrapbook Kit. I chose this beautiful lavender one with dresses on it. Place adhesive down on the top portion of the canvas first, adhere the paper, and burnish down. Then do the bottom half of the canvas and burnish down.

Next tape down you stencil where you would like the flowers.

Next I took both Solar Pastes from the 2026 June Mixed Media Kit and added some re-inker ink to each one, the royal flush and the deep end. (View Video Tutorial for more details)

Next use either a sponge or dauber to apply the solar paste to each flower.

For the leaves I used a green ink pad and for the swirls I used vintage photo distress ink.

Here is the finished stencil.

After the chipboard frame dries I added the Solar Paste Royal Flush to the the frame. You can apply with dauber, finger or paint brush. I used a dauber and fingers. Use a toothpick to get the paste out of the opened areas for a clean look to the frame.

Next adhere the frame over your stenciled flowers and start decorating your canvas. I also applied Solar Paste Royal Flush to the dress, bow on the top of the frame and a few other areas around the canvas.

Here's a close up on the dress I added Solar Paste Royal Flush to the dress and

then added gold stickels.
