| In the Garden Using a 12x12 canvas and a sketch by SuePup You can view her blog at http://suepup.blogspot.com/  |
 |
| The picture is of Dusty in 2009, we always have a big garden and we all work in it, I so enjoy taking pictures of the children in the garden. I have used a Prima butterfly pick, Prima flowers, Silhouette SD for the circle, the title, and iron gate. Skeleton leaves, 7 Gypsies , DCWV, Graphic 45, MME papers used. Basic Grey card |
 |
| Martha Stewart punches, Creative Imaginations rub-ons, tags, Tim Holtz stamps, Tattered Angels butterfly and magnify glass. I added Artlenz to the magnify glass. The quote is so perfect Many things grow in the garden that were never sown there. ~Thomas Fuller, Gnomolgia 1732 |

Hello all,
Yep you know it....I just can't seem to post as much this time of year...with gardening, school projects and all the other goodies I have going on......which at this point is toooooo much!!! This week brings you the SOUS using one of Suepup's sketches....some Amazing sketches she has. be sure to check out her blog http://suepup.blogspot.com/ . Every other week SOUS has a new sketch and a challenge so be sure to join us. Then every other week we have a tutorial on some amazing ideas and techniques...be sure to check them out. I like to hang pictures up on the wall and thought I should do a 12x12 layout on a canvas, so I did....and since this week was the beginning of week 1 at Christy Tomlinson's She Art class. I thought well yeah perfect timing......a wonderful class a must!!!!
Having all that inspiration running through I have put together a small tutorial to get you started on making 12x12 canvas layouts and then you can hang them or gift them. Fun and so touchable....lol!! You know I like texture and thickness....so these are perfect for that. Not to mention painterly fun!!!!
So get those paints out and have a great time!!! Hope you have a super weekend!!! Cyber Hugs, Dawn
