My first canvas!

Hi everyone, I hope you are having a good weekend so far!
Everything is very lazy here today as we both feel the need for some serious down time after a busy week.

 
I made this little canvas last weekend, but didn't get time to photograph it until today. I bought the canvas from Dunelm for 99p. I bought some acrylic paints at the same time and have to say that I am delighted at how good they are for the price!
The image is a cute 'Bestie' by Sheri Baldy, coloured with Promarkers and then slathered in Stickles. I created the background by painting several layers of fushia pink acrylic paint onto the canvas and then stamping white paint with a very old stamp that I use on alot of my cards. The texture is amazing IRL and looks as if the canvas has been 'iced' rather than painted.
 
Happy crafting everyone!
