Charlie Brown Group Canvas


I can't believe I totally blanked on posting the final Charlie Brown canvas that I made for a customer's nursery. This was the final of three that I created - you can search "Wall Art" on the right to view the other two. All of them were made using a 8x8 canvas from Hobby Lobby. The group of kids was quite a challenge. I ended up printing the image and then cutting it out. I use an ink jet printer so when I added the Liquitex Varnish to the top to seal it the images all smeared. I had to visit my mom to use her Epson printer and that did the trick! The background is all hand painted. The kite was cut from a svg set called "Spring a Ling" from Lettering Delights. Some twine to the kite and it was perfect.

Hope you enjoyed the Charlie Brown canvases!

Woody What-Nots Canvas Set




This was a popular one at the fair today.... a set of 4 Woodsy canvases. Perfect for any boy's room. They are made of mixed mediums including vinyl, paper, and paint. This set would look great hung on a line of ribbon or rope on the wall, placed on a shelf, or hung using 3M tape in the square. I used Lettering Delights "Woody What-Nots" file to complete the project. To purchase click HERE. I first painted the canvases with a shear coat of light tan paint. Then cut the animal pieces out of cardstock. The animals were adhered to the canvas using Mod Podge and double-sided tape. I also inked the edges in brown to create dimension. The oh-so-cute phrases were cut in black vinyl. The vinyl made them very easy to apply.
