Christmas Easel Cards/Decorations

Following on from my birthday easel decoration/card from the other week I decided to have a go at a couple of Christmas ones using the same idea.

I took two more of the 12cms x 16cms canvas and easel sets from The Works (I see that they still have them in stock, but they are now £2 a set, which I think is still good value, but will naturally keep my eye open for any further reductions. The canvas and easel stand approximately 15cms tall.

I found that the canvas was only just big enough to take the word Christmas if spaced out very carefully.

Note to self – look out for some smaller, colourful alphabet letter sets in case I want to make any more in the coming months.

I did toy with the idea of adding a few sprigs of holly, Christmas lights etc. here and there but nothing seemed to work, it looked bitty and didn’t flow, so perhaps should be left plain and simple.  I think I could get away with it if I were to put a scene together without any lettering …….. so that, I think is going to be my next project only using smaller, square canvases on an easel, there might even be a Halloween one to be had too.
