{Scrappy Goodness}Christmas Canvas

Merry Christmas!  Today I wanted to share with you a collection of small canvases that I made using the Basic Grey Evergreen Bundle from FotoBella.

I started with 2-4x4 white canvases and 1- 3x4 white canvas.  I then painted them with a metallic red color.  Selected the base paper, cut to size and then adhered to the canvas.  From there I selected from all the embellishments in the bundle to create little groupings.  These are hanging right next to my front door.  They make me very happy when I walk through the door.

{Scrappy Goodness} Art Journal 1

I have been taking an art journal class.  It is something I have been thinking about doing for a while now.  I have been to three classes.  I have to say I am hooked!  I wish I would have done this a while ago.  I thought I would take a moment and share my completed projects.  Each class we learn a new technique and revisit one technique we have already done.

I have to say I'm proud so far of myself. I didn't even mind getting my hands dirty which I don't normally like to do at all.

I wanted to take a moment and share my journal pages from the first class.  It used stamping, dylusion sprays, stencils and gelatos.

I will be back with my other class assignments soon!

Have a beautiful day! Smiles, Jessica
