Christmas Tree Canvas Tutorial

I am a huge fan of Christy Tomlinson.  She has some wonderful online workshops to inspire and explore our inner artist. Christmas is around the corner and she has a great tutorial on making a Christmas Tree Canvas.  You can find the tutorial here:

I love that you can use a lot of scrapbook supplies to make this such as paint, rubons, patterned paper, glitter and embellishments such as buttons.  She recommends using Matte Mod Podge, but I have recently found Decoupage, made by Deco Art, works even better.  I buy it at Michaels and it comes in matte or glossy finish.  I prefer the matte finish.

 
I plan on making lots of little projects for Christmas with Decoupage.  Have a wonderful day!
