Students at Creative University had the option to create this 12x12 canvas decor item. The canvas background is painted with acrylic paints using a wet-on-wet technique for the soft color blending, then a dry-brush technique for the aged edges. The two rolled roses on the project were created by hand, I'll be posting a video tutorial on how to create these flowers in the future.
Additionally, there were two more make-and-takes at Create U. Everyone enjoyed making the world-famous paper cupcake.
Sheila and Kris makin' their cakes.
And lastly, this quick and easy shaker card, using real cake sprinkles. How cute is that?
