Hello there paper friends, thanks so much for calling by to see my latest CANVAS
that I have created. I am over the moon happy to be"Guest Designer" this month over
on the PRIMA blog. Thanks so much to Sharon & the Prima people for inviting me.
I feel so very grateful. I have based my canvas on the May Prima PPP challenge.

Now for my background I have used this Prima "Palais Royal" paper from
the "Salvage Distric" collection, as my background. I simply just stuck the
paper to my canvas. Too easy. Ready made background.
I then gave it a coat of gesso followed by some stencilling with some light paste
to create some added texture. You can see here I have also done lots of stamping
on the background using a stamp from the same collection too.(details below)
Next came the flowers, & oh my goodness, are these colours just the prettiest
colours you have ever seen. I actually used three different packs & just mixed
them up a little, I thought they all went so well together. I also added some
mesh in amongst the flowers for added colour & texture.
I have also used a little stick on Prima doiley behind my photo here too.
All the chipboard I have used is from 2Crafty Chipboard.
To finish off I added some Prima bling, one of their butterflies, which I coloured up
to match the flowers as well as a cute little Prima resin bird house too.
