Hot mess Canvas

Many of  you have seen the HOT MESS CANVAS on many Facebook groups

You start with a canvas and paint it with different colors. ( I only used 2 blue and grey) these colors will be your design colors.

This is also a fun project to do with your kids for fathers day. You give the the canvas, a brush and paint and let them paint it any way they want to. In de mean time you can make your design and cut it out on your machine with vinyl.

I made this text which is also available in my shop as cut file but also as a vinyl sticker.

When the canvas is dry you can apply the vinyl.

(This can be tricky because the paint can give some trouble to get the vinyl to stick. Use a hair blower to get it to stick to the canvas and make sure your transfer tape isn’t to sticky)

As you can see on the picture i only used blue and grey and put black vinyl on it.

You can leave it like this i like it this way as well but then again you don’t  have the awesome effect i show you in the next picture.

Now my text has these awesome colors and you have a perfect gift.

I chose to paint my canvas white again and when the paint was almost dry i removed the black vinyl.

How fun is this to do this with your kids for fathers day or just make a awesome hot mess for your self as wall decor.

Happy crafting
