Instructions

(1) Use the Non-Stick Craft Sheet to cover and protect your work surface.

(2) Paint 6” x 6” canvas with a rolling hill background using Landscape Green, Classic Teal, Sky Blue and Blank Canvas colors of paint. This is easy to do! Just use pencil to sketch a “wavy” line approximately half-way across the canvas. Paint the “sky” above the line, and the grass below it.

(3) Photocopy images photos (family, friends, and pets!) and arrange them on canvas. Draw a dress or a jacket. Paint in using the small round brushes #2 and #4.

(4) Glue all paper items onto canvas using Multi-Medium. TIP: To reduce air bubbles, spread Multi Medium onto canvas surface first and then lay papers into the wet medium. Follow by using more medium on brush and spread from the center out on top of the paper. Allow to dry or speed drying with the Craft Tool.

(5) Cut Sticky Back Canvas into cloud shapes, peel off the backing paper and adhere to the canvas.

(6) Paint extra pieces of Sticky Back Canvas using Modern Red, Painterly Pink, and Yellow Pastel. Once dry cut or punch into circle shapes. Remove the paper backing and adhere to the canvas to create flowers.

(7) Once dry, use markers to add finishing touches to the canvas. Outline figures using Charcoal Black or White Opaque Pen. Color in small items such as the flowers or add a headband using Modern Red, Painterly Pink or Yellow Pastel markers, which match the tones of the paint!
