I created this canvas for my hubby back in October for our anniversary. He has always said to me and the kids "I would rather have something homemade than anything bought". So homemade is what he received!

This was my first attempt at mixed media. It was fun to just be sorta messy for a change! 

Ingredients:
Mod Podge ~ gloss
Plain tan tissue paper
Mister Huey's Color Mists ~ Classic Tan & Sunshine
Tim Holtz cling stamps ~ Grunge Cirque
StazOn solvent ink ~ Jet Black 
Patterned paper assortment
Magic Mesh ~ copper fine weave
Washi tape ~ white with black dots 
Skeleton leaves ~ green
Fiskars clear stamps ~ Sentiments

Happy Crafting
