Crafty Christmas :: Canvas Ornaments

I am forever passing this fabulous art store and going in just to see what odd little bits and pieces they have. They have the loveliest paints and super nice staff who always ask me if I am a student, which makes me sigh and dream for two seconds about how lovely that would be. But there is always some treasure to be unearthed in there, like super tiny stretched canvas. And a bargain!

So I’ve decided to decorate a Christmas tree in little canvas ornaments. They are super easy…acrylic paint, a bit of glitter, a scrap of patterned paper, a snowflake and then the super cute paper doll from Kitschy Digitals. Did I just suggest using a paper doll? Um. Yes, I did. I promise I am still firmly in 2008…she’s just supercute! You can download her in a set made easiest for paper artists or digital artists, which is extra cool. You can see the rest of the gifty stuff that matches this little canvas in the 36 days of Christmas countdown.

Now I just need to finish about a dozen more of these little ornaments and I’ll have enough to make it look like I decorated the tree that way on purpose.

What are you putting on your tree this year? I love hearing ornament stories!
