Family Canvas 

I gave the canvas a coat of Gesso then using the Tim Holtz tissue paper added strips with PVA Glue.

Using a baby wipe I colour washed with Distress paint antique linen to give a vintage look.

I then tore sheets of music and some of the Prima Vintage Emporium notelets and distressed with Distress Ink aged mahogany.  The ribbon I folded into the middle on each side and adhered to the canvas, I then distressed around the frame with aged mahogany distress pen.

The wooden tree and family where given a coat of Adirondak paint in mushroom then adhered to canvas.

The Tim Holtz Found Relatives card has been cut down, distressed around edges with my scissors then matted and layered onto vintage emporium card which has also been distressed. I then added the metal charm under the image and added button along the bottom onto the ribbon.

To finish off the canvas I added paper and metal flowers to the tree, made a flower with the lace and added the metal flower to the centre.
