art

I have always loved these pretty text art images... You know, these with random shapes of animals, flowers, maps or even faces made out of words that are somehow related. I even made some of my own but it was quite time consuming. I’ve read up on few blogs that there is an extension that is meant to do all the hard work for you, but unfortunately I just couldn’t make it work. I ended up making it all just by moving and resizing text around so it took a long time to finish even just one picture.

This time I used 5x5 canvases. I used pink, teal and navy blue and green colors and blended them together on textured background created by using cricut to cut out stencils and putting a small layer of filling paste over it.

The other day we went to michaels and bought awesome deep canvas packs. One of them was 4"x4" and there is 9 of them in one pack. They were all on 60% deal so they came to something over 7$ for all of them. I wasnt quite sure what to do with them at the time, but then I got home and found a wood filling paste....There is a lot you can do with the that. I used stencils I made with cricut and a little bit of paint and this is what came out...
