I HEART CANVAS...

I've done another canvas...as per usual it's nothing like it started out as...didn't like it so I changed half way through to one I found in Craft Stamper either last month or the month before...
 

 I love these little balloon shapes and so easy to do...make your shape out of wire, adhere to the backing of your choice, cut round the shape and then fill with glossy accents or even crackle accents...great effect!

 I used an old wooden heart here, giving it much the same colour effect as the canvas itself, then I stamped up some tissue paper with a huge text stamp and stuck it down and  then covered the whole thing with crackle accent...I love the effect that gives...The small heart is the centre of a Tim Holtz stamp covered with more glossy accent.
 
This is a lovely quote from a Unity stamp which I like also stamped on tissue and stuck down...I should have left it alone though as it's a little squint!!
 
Thanks for looking!!!
