While we are on a roll with patriotic decor around here, I thought to keep the momentum going with a quick and easy washi tape stars n’ stripes canvas. See how to use craft sticks for a mini pallet on canvas that you can dress up to fit any occasion!
SUPPLIES:
Jumbo Craft Sticks
An old canvas (can be used; grab one for cheap at a garage sale or thrift store)
Star Template printed to size, and scissors
String, letter stickers, other embellishments
White Gesso
Sponge brush
Acrylic paint in choice of colors
Washi tape in coordinating colors and prints
Scrap white card stock or cardboard
Foam mounting squares or other adhesive
TUTORIAL:
For this project, I updated the Easter Faux Mini Pallet Art I showed you before. Head to that tutorial for how to make the canvas.
I took the bunny silhouette piece and spray painted with blue Krylon I had on hand.
Right click this star image and print to size for your project.
Apply strips of washi tape to scrap white cardboard or card stock. I used the cover flap for a scrapbook paper pad. Cut out your star template and tape on top of washi tape stripes where you want your cut out to be. Cut along template edge to get a washi tape striped star.
Adhere to mini pallet canvas with foam mounting stickers. Embellish with stickers for words, baker’s twine, buttons and more!
