Springtime Canvas

For my off-the-page project this month I decided to decorate a canvas. You can get these pretty cheap at craft stores, and it's a nice way to personalize a child's room. To adhere the paper to the canvas I used Mod Podge - be sure to cover the entire piece of paper. To make sure it's really adhering I flip the canvas over on my desk and press down all over on the back side.

I left the edges of the canvas natural, but you could easily use a bit of acrylic paint or Glimmer Mist on the canvas before adhering your paper. The cloud was made from Co-ordinations cardstock. I lightly sanded inside the cloud in a circular motion to let a bit of the pink show through.

Thanks to Kelli Crowe for inspiration from her BPS class on paper piecing! I used her method for creating the tree and the cloud.
