I read about this really neat way you can run tissue paper through your printer and then mod podge it onto canvas (I used canvas board for this project) and you get the same pretty effect as a printed wrap canvas. You can view the full tutorial here. After my transfer was dry I decided to add some velvet and burlap trim. I also attached a loop of twine to the back so it could be hung.
I'm very happy with the way it turned out especially for a project that cost me nothing since I just used what I had on hand. These would make great holiday gifts for grandparents. They could also be made smaller and could be used as ornaments!
Happy Wednesday!

Thanks for the link to the instructions. Yours turned out really well. What a cutie you have to work with too.
