Creating a stunning mixed media canvas is actually easier than what you may think. It's simply a matter of creating a textured canvas by adding layers of paper, modeling paste, paint, stenciling, ink spray and adhering a few embellishments.

We included the paper designs that you can print if you choose to create the same design as we did.
