Isn't IT Funny how you can sometimes make PLaNs and they don't end up going the way you thought they would? My last Blog I had ALL these plans....... It's a long story but to make it short we Moved my In-Laws to a nursing home near us where my father-in-law who was in Hospice died. Now we are trying to help his wife of 57 years learn to live without him and adjust to a new life. She is a trooper and with good positive encouragement she's going to be fine.
Jess and I missed the Atlanta and Dallas Market this month. But, we do have some Markets coming up that we are working on! So Excited and READY for a SHOW!!
*********************
One thing I wanted to show you is something you can make yourself.....maybe for the one you LOVE on Valentine's Day. I made these for Jess and Steve at Christmas.
I took pictures of LILLIE GRACE and scrapbooking papers and decoupaged them onto stretched canvas.
The pictures are embellished with crystals, jewelry and letters. This gives them texture and really makes them stand out.
This was a larger one from the pictures above where I tried to show more detail to you.
If you make these you will need .....any size stretched canvas...enlarged pictures....decoupage...sponge applicators.....colorful papers....paint....embellishments....glue...and matte finish spray.
Here we Go!
Collage and decoupage your papers and pictures anywhere on your canvas. Be creative. (I added cowboy boots by a picture of Lillie in a cowboy hat.) After the decoupage dries you can add paint to any area you didn't cover such as the sides. When this dries spray it with Matte Finish Spray to protect it.
Now comes the best part.....embellish away. Glue on anything around your artwork...make it yours
ENJOY.
