Canvas Art

The first class I took with Donna Downey was called, "Elegant Garden." This class was full of new techniques and I can't wait to start making my own creations based on her stunning ideas. I mapped out the basic steps of how we created this layout below. And for the record, I am in LOVE with the fabric flowers. I have many ideas of ways I want to use these...

I used the picture of me and my niece, Mara, working hard at the balloon toss at the last Bredberg family reunion. I love this pictures because we are working so hard just handing the balloon back and forth and everyone else was ten feet apart at this point :)

This is really amazing! I love the fabric flowers and can't wait to have you show me. A personal tutorial, please? :)

where did you get the canvas? will you frame this like in a record album shadow box? I am wondering if I could jazz up Josie's Missionettes Badge display in a shadow box using some off these cute techniques!

Lisa!
I love this idea and don't think it would be too hard. We can talk through this more later, but for now, check out this post:
