Decorative Mixed Media Canvas
detailed step by step tutorial

Hi friends! A new week begins and I thought I would inspire you a bit to create something pretty! I love sharing tutorials, so I thought I would repost for you one of my most popular tutorials!



I made this decorative Shabby Chic / Mixed Media canvas panel not long ago. I have updated the tutorial and added very detailed step by step photos and list of supplies! I know how Mixed Media can be a little intimidating for a traditional cardmaker, but with this tutorial you will learn the basic steps and supplies to achieve a lovely mixed media look not only on a canvas but on every other papercrafting project your little heart desires to create!

CLICK HERE to check out my tutorial and a detailed list of supplies with great step by step pictures and a couple tips! :) Don't forget to let me know if you liked my guide tutorial by clicking on the little heart on top (that way I'll know you enjoyed it)!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a great week!
