Hi Everyone! It is another beautiful day here in the pacific northwest! I wanted to show you how easy it is to create Halloween art!
Above is a collage for Halloween that was soooo darned easy! Let me show you how I did it.
You need a blank canvas (these are often 50% off at JoAnn's)...mine is an 8" x 10". I covered the whole canvas with old papers from books, ledgers, and cream papers.....just torn and modpodged on. I like matte modpodge.
I try to use so different colors of cream/tan...just for interest.
I gave the canvas a coat of orange paint mixed with a bit of water....so it is translucent.
Let dry.
Here is the super easy part....these crows are from the dollar store...they are black silhouettes. There are other choices too....like owls, bats, and more. I just cut a branch from black paper.
I have lots of letters I have printed out....I just type letters in a word program using different fonts and then print out the letter. You could also use letters from books, magazines, or stamp letters on cream colored paper.
I mod podged them all down on the covered canvas.
I then added brown aging ink to the corners, and all around the canvas. I also added brown paint underneath the crows, twig, and letters. I added some doodles with a black sharpie pen, just for fun.
Here is the finished piece!!
I love how easy this was and very fun too! There are alot of cool things at the dollar store!
Come to the party...
