I made this canvas with a favourite photograph of Dad, as a gift for my brother |
Never a truer word spoken .... |
Suede flowers, chipboard scrolls, wooden leaves distressed with Distress Inks and a little birdhouse button I've had for years. |
Gardener's twine, coated with pva glue and fashioned into a heart, a little wooden tag with a vellum sentiment |
Buttons, Buttons, Buttons....... and more twine ... |
Another chipboard scroll, these were painted with acrylics and more ink. The dragonfly was a die cut - goodness knows where that came from - inked up again. |
Build a little birdhouse in your soul. This button was very plasticky looking until I attacked it with a promarker! |
The finished article. |
Love and crafty blessings. xx
Absolutely gorgeous and a lovely tribute to a special Dad.
