I am sure many of you have seen this before! Wrap a canvas or four (snicker snicker) in fun trendy fabric! It is easy as 1. 2. 3... Iron Fabric, lay canvas face down on fabric and wrap like you are wrapping a present.  Be sure to use a staple gun for a nice tight wrap! Don't you just love the Classic colors Black, Gold and White?

This fun Mixed Media project is one of my all time favorite projects that I have made.  Using a fun square canvas, I used the amazing Christy Thomlinson's stickers (I got these in a kit when I subscribed to her kit club) the bird, the girl and the sun are all her stickers that made this canvas come together super fast.  I used washi tape, flowers, butterfly, mesh, straight pin and ribbon to add dimension.  But my favorite part is that I printed chevron onto a sheet of tissue paper and used mod podge to adhere it to the canvas.  I then used Heidi Swapp Color Shine on a book page and also used the mod podge.  So fun but so cute! The possibilities are endless with canvas and mixed media!

Last but not least the super fun canvas just using spritz! You can layer and layer your spritz until you get the look that you want. Hang it alone or with some friends on a wall or on a plate stand! You decide! Super fun all the way around!
