This is the second canvas I've made for my great-niece and great-nephew. Love Dr. Seuss quotes!!
As I make more canvas art I hope I will start to feel free enough to start experimenting with mixed media art. It is had to let go and risk it, but as I have found, you can just add more paint and cover up what you do not like.
I used gesso, a variety of acrylic paints, white card stock edged with Tim Holtz Chipped Sapphire Distress Stain, and covered with Mod Podge. The Mod Podge is water-based and allows the distress stain to tint the card stock a bit. The Mod Podge I used was the glossy finish...I have a gallon of it!?! When I do another canvas I would cover it with the Matte finish. The font I used, "For The One Hundredth Time", is free and available for download at kevinandamanda.com. It is such a fun font to use!
Thanks Karen for sharing... So much fun!! and Just in time for Dr. Seuss's B-day!!
