Stitchy, Waxy, Canvas (Sunday Stamper Challenge)
I have been enjoying a workshop today with Sarah Anderson. We have been making a stitchy, waxy canvas, what FUN we had. I am also entering this for The Sunday Stamper challenge which is to use NUMBERS in your artwork and I have used plenty of them. Pop over to Hels blog to join in, Hels is giving aways some fantastic blog candy which you can see on my side bar. It's a special occasion for Hels she is the BIG 40 today, so a big happy birthday Hels, have a fantastic day.
Once I arrived home I knew I needed to add something to my canvas just to lift it a little so I added some buttons and a couple of Tim's Idea-ology, which just finishes it off quite nicely.
We decorated the canvas using paint dabbers, stamps and sponging through sequin waste. The flowers were stamped on a page of an old book and stamped images added afterwards. These were then adhered using melted beeswax, great fun. To complete we added some stitching around the flowers. Thanks for a great workshop Sarah, I had a fun, relaxing day, THANKS x x
