A little sneak peak of a canvas I made for someone to give to their wife on Valentine's Day..
First of all I covered the canvas with blocks of patterned paper from a 6x6 Glitz pack called cashmere dame which is all lovely and vintagey...just my thing...I reprinted the photo onto sticky back canvas to give it the shabby vintage feel as well...painted the initials black and sanded them and added a pretty flower made from book pages...my favourite!
I added a tag into a glassine envelope so the giver can write their own special message...gave the matting a bit of a spritz with some Mr Huey calico white mister...
There is a doily in behind for another touch of vintage and finally the addition (after much hunting and getting some more from Sonja!) I added these two little veneer people to a heart!
It is a very pretty canvas and I haven't added the full size photo as it's for Valentine's Day and I don't want it seen before the big day...I will post this later...
So far so lovely! Looking forward to seeing the finished article!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking good. Those papers are fab and at least you eventually found the rest of the people.
