On a Roll

This one was done super fast.....I guess I'm on a roll with these boards. Good thing since I've had several peopler request one! This one is for our house. I usually do stuff for other people, but this time I wanted something for us! It hangs in our kitchen nook area. I took down a canvas painting I had from Hobby Lobby and put this in it's place. I like this much better. The only thing I wish it had was a big frame around it........I may try to hunt down a cheap one at a thrift store. This one is sized 24inx36in, and I used a piece of MDF.

Family Rules #2!!

These are so fun to make! I just finished this one and put it onto canvas......I think I like glueing down to wood better for these. It seems to come out smoother, but canvas is a whole lot lighter for shipping. This one is for Janda's sister, who is having a birthday next month. I was told she likes to decorate with cowgirl/western things, so I tried to find paper that was a good mix of cowgirl and other patterns like paisley and dots. I found some really cute "suede" and "denim" paper at the scrapbooking store here. If you've never been in there, she has a pretty good selection of paper to choose from. I'm just about to start a Family Rules board for our house, and it's going to hang in our kitchen nook area. It's going to be kind of big, but I think it will look good there. Pictures to come...........

Aubyn's Nursery

Janda sent me a picture of the canvas hanging in sweet baby Aubyn's room. I luuuurve how they painted one of the walls hot pink. I think it adds so much to her room. The other walls are pretty tone on tone green stripes. Thanks for sending the picture, Janda! It looks beautiful in her room!

Brinley's Art and Kerri's Canvas

I just completed 2 canvases as gifts! The first was for my cousin Charla's sweet new baby girl, Brinley. Her bedding is gorgeous.....lovin' the black and white again. Here's a pic of the bumper, one side patterned and the other striped.

I wanted to add a little color, so the backrground was a very pale turquoisish gray, and the lettering is in red.


polka dots for the border!

And onto the next one......this is a picture of my sister-in-laws bedding. It's adorable......from Anthropologie. She wanted a big canvas, 2ft by 4ft, to hang over the bed. She requested the big flower. So, here is what I came up with!

I like the simplicity of just the large flowers. I was going to add something else, but decided the canvas would look too crowded if I did. The background color is a shade of green.

Close up of the flowers....I haven't seen it hanging yet, but hope this is what she wanted!
