As I was looking at everyone's Top 10 Ideas from 2010 I noticed everyone's Subway Art.
I just think that subway art is the coolest thing, and not very hard at all.
So I decided I would try it out myself!
I picked the canvas up at Hobby Lobby for 1/2 off!
As I was looking around Hobby Lobby I saw the scrapbook pages were also 1/2 off so I thought I might try and add some of these into my subway art!
First I painting my canvas chocolate brown,
then I cut the scrapbook pages into a few rows.
I then got out my favorite crafting device...
and modpodged my paper onto my brown canvas!!
As this was drying I started printing out words on my silhouette machine to put on my canvas.
This was actually the hardest part, I couldn't think of words to put on there!
I started off with our families names, then just added words in as they came to my head.
And this is how it all turned out!
It's still a little wet in the picture, but I was super anxious to show everyone my first try at Subway Art!!!
Parties I'm Linking Up With:
Great idea to build in your family's names and then your aspirations and values.
ReplyDeleteWow! looks great! X3
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and really love this subway art! Such a great idea. I wanted a wooden typography sign from etsy for my daughter but can't afford their price and this would be great, plus I get to make it for her. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteYou did great. We all had our first time at everything, and you did a great job on your art. I am also new to art, but I am into painting and sketching more. I love to explore when it comes to art. I painted my first artwork when I was 10, and I am still learning. I am married now, and I am glad that my partner always supports everything I do. He just gave me a set of art supplies last month as a gift for my birthday.
