SPRING CROP 2011 - Create a Canvas Class

[vtpuggirl]

Great class! Love seeing the canvas come to life!

[AmberCA]

Wow, Lisa, this is fantastic! I have never done anything quite this artsy and I am just itching to start it. I love all the layers and the finishing touches that you did. It looks sooo great hanging on your wall! Awesome job

Oh Lisa it is so so SO beautiful! I am so inspired to go start this right now! (Wish I could!) I actually have some molding paste that I got with a 40% off coupon this week! Woo Hoo!

I am thinking about doing a different shape than a heart...something that i can hang in my kitchen that is "summery".

Can't wait to see girls

Audrey, Mine started off as a house shaped. I cut a small house our of card, but I ended up changing my mind.
You could do a cup/mug shape

What size canvas did you use for your project? I think I want to take a break and work on this it is gorgeous!

[DeniseM]

Lisa, this is fantastic. You make it look so easy but I know things like this aren't. Good advice about not trying to make it perfect!

[anja_wade]

Lisa, what an incredibly gorgeous project!
I am going to pick up some modeling paste on my next trip to the craft store. You've inspired me!

That is so funny...i thought of BOTH of those shapes.....I think I might try a "sun" with yellows and blues and a bit of green...we will see...

I'm so happy that you want to give it a go.

It's not that big. Prbably about 18x25cm

I'm making hearts... and I used gesso instead of moulding paste because it dries up faster. I am about to find me some mist colors that I like. I'm not sure what to go for... I don't think I have a red one at the hospital so it'll have to be something else, even if I'm doing hearts.

I love your canvas so much Lisa!!!

Hello! Lovely project Lisa, I'm right into canvases at the mo. so having a go at this. Have just mod podged my book paper down.

[iemom]

This is great! Very inspiring! I may just have to open my brand new jars of Gesso and Molding Paste that have been sitting on my desk for months!

[gudrun]

Oh, this class was SO cool!! Thanks a bunch Lisa!!!!
I'll absolutely try this!!
I actually have a canvas here under my desk .... but I sort of feel it is a slightly bit too big....
Maybe I just have to buy a new one.
