Hi there, it's Eva here again sharing a fun project created with Canvas Corp Canvases and our Petaloo flowers.
Here is what I came up with and I tell you it was so fun to create this and could make a sweet center piece at your Christmas table.
To started out with glueing my little canvases together by tilting each of them so I could create a christmas tree shape. Once they dried, I added gesso to create a snow flocked look and added a little bit of green Pan Pastel, than I started adding my flowers.
You can see how great these flowers went with the project.
And here is a look of the top of the tree, which I added two large Textured flowers to by securing them to a popsicle stick. It worked perfect and looks like a star on a tree.
Petaloo items used on this project:
FloraDoodles Velvet Hydrangeas - Cream
Mixed Textured Blossoms - Amber
Mixed Textured Blossoms - Ivory
Mixed Textured Mini Blossoms - Amber
Faux Dried Berry Clusters - Red/Green/Burgundy

Love the tree. I made something similar but used only punched flowers of different sizes and shapes. I like yours better because of the addition of canvas. that would have greatly improved mine. thanks for sharing and giving me a great tip if I make another tree.
