Canvas love ♥♥♥




I love making my own Christmas cards but more often than not, I run out of time. This year I decided to start early and simplify. Ever since I got out the stencils and the canvas I have been a painting machine, so it was easy to narrow it down to a few designs.


This first set is my favorite, just simple and clean but with a natural look.


I added a little glitter to make these stand out. The edges are inked in red, I love the red/blue combo for Christmas and the glitter worked like a charm :)

This last set are larger cards and not my favorite but they are growing on me.

Well that's this years design, I hope my friends and family like them :) Now I just need to make about 100 more...wish me luck!


Thanks for stopping by,

Kxxx

    I'm sure these will be a big hit, Kristin! I have a mini-book that I need to cover for some friends - it's a camping theme book and I plan to use canvas and I plan to embellish it with paint. I love your idea for using stencils - thanks for the inspiration!!!
