Holiday Canvas Art

Chica Christmas #12 of 40!

Last week when I was at Duncan, I was cleaning up my work area and came across these holiday canvases I made for a magazine assignment. I forgot how cute they came out!! I brought them home, hung them up and decided to share them with you! I have them hung on my wall in a block of four, but this picture gives them much more justice.

I just took four blank canvases, painted them in contrasting colors, glued on the Boho appliques in the center of each one and trimmed the backgrounds in glitter, and added dimensional accents with Tulip 3D Fashion Paint. The trick to this look is the contrast. Holiday decor doesn't always have to be only green and red. I added in white and gold and the colors really played off eachother well.

Click on the link below for the detailed directions and product list. I swear, you can whip these out in no time at all. I think they would make a cute hostess gift or party favor!

  1. Hi Kathy,

    we met at Blogher at the museum party this summer (you liked my guadalupe bottlecap earrings), and I have been keeping up with you mostly through my google reader ever since. I "pop in" to the blog every few weeks and am always astonished at how much you do.

    I just wanted to say how happy I am for all your successes. Every new item in your sidebar makes me smile. I love to see talent & originality rewarded

    If you are ever passing through Little Rock, drop me a line. I'd love to see you.

    Merry, merry,

    xo
