Printing on Canvas

**Hummie** · 08-05-2010

Lynne, do you have any photos of yours on the wall that you can share?

**Dawn** · 08-05-2010

I want to get my sunset one on a canvas... I think it would look good in my room

**NancyP** · 08-06-2010

Thanks for this thread!! I have wanted to try canvas but was afraid I would spend the money and wouldn't like it. You have convinced me to try it!

I've got the 3 Los I did of my Dds and myself that I plan to have put on canvas when we move...don't want to tempt fate by doing it yet though, LOL!!!

being in the UK I shall have to source a different provider though I'm guessing! Haven't heard any opinions about cnvas printing in the UK, but googled and found this one...

can't see 12x12 but 16x16 which would be fab for an big empty wall, LOL, is just £23 on sale atm. Course they could be rubbish, LOL, but I'm not too sure where to go to get advice on this sorta thing for over here...UKScrappers, being mainly paper scrappers, isn't likely to be much use, although I will ask there just in case! Ooh could try the new UK digi site...I've forgotten all my new site finds what with the wedding last w/e, LOL! Need to get into the swing of things again!

Can't wait to see my creations on canvas...one more LO to go still of DY and then I have a set!

Thanks for inspiring me to start looking around though!

Unfortunately I have never been a paper scrapper but the one thing that would interest me, would be the printing on canvas. I would like to have some of my layouts professionally printed on canvas, not necessarily that I would actually print them on my home printer, but to take advantage of some of the services and resources offered out there in the digital world. I will investigate some of the places mentioned in the forum.

The examples of printing on canvas look lovely.

I would love to do this for my parents/inlaws for Christmas. I see them at craft fairs, Canton, etc...and love them.

I did this for Christmas last year for my MIL. But I did it with modge podge. It looked wonderful. MIL loved it. My husband just took his grandfather to washington dc to visit the war memorials and I think I will take one of those photos and have it done professionally for his grandpa.

I want to do this!!!! I was going to do one for Christmas for my Mom, but...finances just weren't there, maybe this year??

**Momof9Blessings** · 04-02-2012

need to look it up.... but there is a "cheap" way to do this.... there is some tutorials out there.... http://sarahsprojects.blogspot.com/2...nnas-room.html

You print on tissue paper than adhere the tissue paper to the canvas... I can't wait to try this!!!

**BernieTuffs** · 04-03-2012

Off to buy printer ink, LOL, and tissue paper today then!!!!! oh and modge podge - have no idea where mine would be since we moved over a year ago, LOL

thanks for linking us up!!!

Hummie! Maybe we could put this in the newsletter, LOL!! Everyone should know about this method; it looks so simple even I could do it,

!!!!

**Hummie** · 04-04-2012

One of us should try it out before we put it in the newsletter.

Take your own photos and I'll put it on the blog and then we can do the newsletter?

I am wondering how well the canvas texture shows through the tissue.

**BernieTuffs** · 04-04-2012

yup that's a good idea LOL! Didn't make it out yesterday coz of dog n stuff and then today, after all the digging, I discovered muscles I never knew I had, LOL, bit hard to walk, LOL, so we have all had a quiet day inside and doing not much together

just as well as DD1 hasn't been feeling well, DD2 had tooth pain in a tooth just coming through after one fell out...it's all go here, LOL!!!!

I know I have to go shopping tomorrow though so will get the supplies and have a play with the girls in the afternoon!

will keep you updated
