Powder Room Canvas Re-Do

This canvas was purchased a few years ago from Home Goods.

Forgot to take a before pic

but it just wasn't really what I wanted in the powder room.

I wanted to add more pink/feminine in there, wanted a monogram on it but wasn't sure where I was going with this.

So I started by just painting over the canvas with browns, creams & pinks, the messier the better, there was no plan here, I just went with it.

The flourish is an old Jim Holtz-Ideology Mask which I love love love

See where the flourish kind of ends?

I messed up some how so I needed something to cover it so.....

Then I cut out my monogram w/ my cricut on cardstock & chipboard then deco'd them together to give it a little dimension and added the primitive heart (to cover the mistake),

cut from an old paperback.

The quote i stamped with ink, cut the words out & inked some more...

inky & messy is the look I love

The quote says

"together is where your heart sings loudest"

love that

not sure where i got the quote...if you know, let me know!

Added a coat of Mod Podge & it was done

I love the way it turned out!

My Attempt at Subway Art

These are my sisters' Christmas gifts-

We were trying to scale back as much as possible & only give to the kids

But they always do so much for my girls so I wanted to give them something

meaningful & unique

This is my first attemp at my own unique style of

Subway Art

I used favorite song/artists for the quotes.

We all love music so much

This one is George Michael's "waiting for that day"

These started out as canvases that I purchased at Michaels-3 pack for $8.00 i think?

I painted it with acrylic paint.

I dont have any organized way of doing this I just go.......

For this one I used blue & white to get the weathered look

I cut lyrics out with my cricut & stamped some too

Covered it all with a coat of Mod Podge

This one is "all you need it love" by the Beatles!

Now looking back at this, I think I would have added more words to them

But I love the way they turned out

I love the pop of red I used with the green & the blue!

Let me know what you think!
