canvas play

i am not traveling for the next 3 weeks and all i want to do is play. i want to create not for assignment or obligation, but just the pure joy of taking a blank canvas, adding color and seeing where it takes me.

this is what i have been playing with the past week...my heart is happy, my mojo refreshed, and my creative soul tapped and longing for more!

 

 

(used lots of my new 8" rubber stamps here...happiness!)

this one is a work in progress, waiting on the product i ordered to finish it! (i hate waiting)

but i really do love making a mess!

 

join me this week in some creative play and share what you can do with your blank canvases! i would love to see and share your creative ideas...inspiration and creativity lead to greater inspiration and creativity!

see more ideas and purchase canvas aprons, totes, small camera bags, and large camera bags here.

I"m glad the mojo is back !! Sometimes we all need to just recharge our souls. Love the small camera bag .. I want to thank you for turning me into a "canvas junkie" .. I love this addiction.

These are beautiful. I love your aprons that you make. They're all works of art. I especially like this one because I like pretty handwriting.
