I have had great fun making this canvas showcasing the little door. The story about the door relates back to when my daughter and I were walking down one of the alley ways in Brisbane and my daughter pointed out the door designed for the little fairies who live in the city. The saying I have put on the canvas - "What I Love Most About My House, Is Who I Share It With" I love that no matter the size or where the door is - you are always welcomed at the door with a big Hello.
When starting the canvas I had an idea of how I wanted the layout but couldn't decide on the background until I saw my Stamperia Crackle Paste and used this to give the background a good base.
From this point the canvas just flowed.
I do hope you all like the canvas and find some inspiration from it.
Materials I used were:
49&Market paper for the background behind the picture
49&Market Flowers - Wildflowers Cream
Starburst - Clam Bake Beige
Starburst - Sassy Sapphire
Starburst - Ramblin' Rose Pink
Magical - Lucky Shamrock Green
Tim Holtz Distress Glaze - Walnut Stain
Chipboard - my son cut for me on his Laser Cutter
Cork for behind the picture
Twine to run under the picture
The Following are the challenges I will be entering this month - please hope over to each of them and look at all the wonderful creations in each one.
