Canvas Project: Take the Time 2 Create

It's a New Year's Resolution for a lot of us.

Make time to create.

I need the reminder.

You too, can make a SIMPLE canvas.

I created this SUPER simple canvas.

by using a piece of balsa wood.

I decoupaged some napkins onto the board.

 I added a coat of paint, and created a whitewash finish by

dry brushing some Gesso.

I sanded and inked around the edges with 

Clearsnap Mix'd Media Inx® by Donna Salazar

I added some Tissue Tape,

a transparency,

a beautiful chevron border,

some words and hardware...

a few buttons,

some bulk LOOSE bling, and 

Steel Blue Pearls

and the title...

The Fancy chipboard title Create was painted with Gesso and 

coated with Medium and then

dusted with Fairy Dust from our preferred partner, Clearsnap.

VOILA...
