Throwback Thursday: May 2, 2011

SOLD! To the woman who enjoys friends & drinks with friends on May 2, 2011.
"I really like this," she wrote. Well, that is exactly what I wanted to see.


Sadly, there isn't another, but you can MAKE YOUR OWN!

{ Scrapbook Canvas Art }

You can create this in any theme, style or color that you prefer.
That's what makes it so fun & easy - Your imagination is the limit!

Supplies needed:

Canvas (4"x4" shown.)
Tape or glue
Scrapbook papers
Ribbon
Buttons, die cuts
Stamp, ink


1. Wrap scrapbook paper around the canvas like you would a present, so that the folds are on the sides and back.

2. Wrap & glue ribbon around the sides to cover up any folds from the paper.

3. Stamp image onto a piece of scrapbook paper, then cut it to be smaller than the size of the canvas.

4. Add embellishments to the corners.



Tip: If using a small canvas, pick up a mini easel, so you can display it.

These can be relatively inexpensive, so they would make great gifts, such as bridesmaids, birthdays, or Christmas.

They will be a special way to share your creativity with others.

If you need ideas, checkout scrapbook layouts or page maps.



Have you made or received a piece of canvas art? Old or new, share it in the comments!
And if you decide to make one now, share that, too. I always enjoy viewing others' projects.

With blessings & joy, yours truly . . . Corrinne Quinn

Day 64: I See Green Everyday


The first thing I do every morning is make a cup of steaming coffee using my French press. I add sugar & almond milk, then blend it all together. Coffee - it's my necessity, or maybe it's just a habit, but I do so enjoy it.

I take it outside on my porch, sit in my comfy chair & relax while the birds sing. It's a wonderful way to wake up, prepare & plan what I'll be doing for the day. 

How do you start your day? Is it always the same?
Are you a morning person (like me)?

It's the fourth day in 30 Days Of Reflection Photo Challenge & it's all about something green. This photo is what I see everyday. It's just a small portion of my backyard. There is tall bamboo, a bush of some sort & Day Lilies.

Want to see my other reflections? Yes? How fantastic!
