Chill Out Simple Watercolored Canvas

Meihsia Liu Simply Paper Crafts Mixed Media Canvas Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Chill Out Tim Holtz Watercolor



Welcome back for the new challenge, my dear friends. Our theme this week is CHILL OUT - The weather is quite chilly at the Simon HQ and probably in your city, too. You can also choose to chill out at the beach if you prefer warmer climes. You may interpret this theme however you want. 

I was relaxed and inspired to create a simple painting on a canvas with Sakura Koi 
Watercolors and decorated it Tim Holtz Big Chat Stickers. The color scheme on this canvas really chills me out.

After painting on the canvas with watercolors and water brushes, I added the sentiments using Tim Holtz Big Chat stickers layered with the burlap.

Some metal embellishments were attached using Tombow Mono Glue. I also used Tim Holtz Industrious Stickers as the frame on the canvas.
