Third Wedding Anniversary Easel

Sorry,  another easel for you today ……… I’ll get out this phase soon, I promise!

This was made for my lovely neighbours third wedding anniversary (hence the counting of days), using a small 7cms x 7cms canvas and easel set I found in Home Bargains for just 69p, you can’t even buy a card for that!

I also used my trusty old Dymo label maker, some plain wooden numbers (the Works) which I coloured with a purple Sharpie pen, followed by two layers of Ranger Glossy Accents, which did run, but I managed to carefully remove the offending blob before giving it.

A few tiny confetti stars here and there, along with a scattering of three dot clusters made using a black fine liner pen complete this very simple idea.

With my Christmas easels I’ve been gluing the canvas straight onto the easel as they are more of a decoration, which I hope will be brought out for a couple of Christmases at least, however as this is just a temporary sort of thing, I thought I would leave it as it was so that perhaps the easel could be used again on another occasion/purpose perhaps.
