Altered canvas with Julie Nutting stamps

Here is another altered canvas I did.  I used my Julie Nutting doll stamps on this one.  These are a blast to make!  This one is a 12 x 12 canvas which I bought at Walmart.  If you are interested in buying the canvas, to give this a try, they were a little under 6 dollars a piece.

To make this canvas, I'm working on the back side of the canvas.  I cover the edge where the canvas meets the wood with modeling paste.  I also cover the staples.  After that was dry, I covered the sides with musical notes tissue paper.  I applied the tissue with medium gel then, let it dry.  It's wrapped around all of the edges and extends slightly on the back.  The green color was obtained by using gelatos.  I "colored" them on roughly then using a baby wipe, worked it into the tissue paper. The back of the canvas starts with a piece of scrapbook paper in a beige color with some Christmas trees on the left.  I sprayed green and red Dylusions sprays on top of it, let it dry then stenciled on bubbles.  The dolls are attached with pop up glue tabs.  The final touch was a few more embellishments including crafting tinsel which is hot glued around the inside edge.  To complete it I covered the back with a piece of Christmas scrapbook paper.
