Canvas Scrapbooking

Friday, June 12, 2009

It is a lot of fun to alter and scrap on a canvas. It is also a great gift to make for someone else. I did a class with a lady called Anna-Karin over last weekend about Textured Canvas Scrapbooking. We made a canvas with a lot of texture and using different paint techniques.I started with one on Friday. But to me it was not that big a success. T

We finally arrived home from our December holiday on Sunday. My husband and I travelled to St Francis Bay where we have a beach house. We were there for 2 weeks, and I honestly wish I could say that it was long enough. But unfortunately, it never is. I always wonder why that is. But then again, if we don’t work, then we won’t be able to go on holi

It is really scary!What is even scarier is the fact that we all make these new years resolutions, bu
