My project was inspired by a favorite Big Deal quote from the Borders & Backgrounds UM. I thought it would be fun to feature the quote on an altered 6x6 canvas I could display on my desk at the office.
I trimmed the center from a 6x6" piece of Ivory CS Print and glued it to the back side of the canvas. I added stamped accents, a die cut Bingo chip, mini Scrabble tile stickers and a wooden domino for embellishments. The chipboard "3." is from Let Me Count the Ways.
I decorated both sides, so visitors coming into the office could enjoy the view as well.

ReplyDeleteJust what I was going to say Tricia! Of course I love the layers of stenciling you've done Karen. Decorating both sides of the canvas and having domino feet is so great!
