My First Canvas

So who hasn’t found themselves stuck in the world of Pinterest? I mean really you promise yourself just a quick peek and an hour and a half later… well you know.

So today over at Practical Scrappers we decided we should put all that research to use, hop on over and see what we came up with here is what I did with my research.

I was inspired to make a mixed media canvas for the first time ever, after seeing this canvas by Jenniferat Craft Test Dummies.

I used Heidi Swapp’s Vintage Chic Collection to make this canvas of my daughters taking a stroll hand and hand in the park.

LGS Week 2 Challenge!

I hope everyone has had a chance to check out our Blog Hop at Let’s Get Sketchy this week, if not no worries you have until Wednesday to upload your entry for a chance to win a great Prima Collection!

But Today is Monday and you know what that means! Yep that’s right it’s time for another great sketch at Let's Get Sketchy.

I used Bazzill Basics –Miss Teagen Sue Collection, which I was lucky enough to get in my kit from Scrappy Chic this month! I love these bright cheerful colors they just made me so happy I had to put them with the happiest pictures I could find, so here is what I came up with it’s a bit far from the sketch but it is where I started.

Thanks for stopping by today!
