Happy 4th of July to the USA! We usually celebrate with a cookout and FIREWORKS
This week's inspiration from Papercrafter's Corner is very patriotic.
I was also inspired by this pin from Pinterest:
And, here's what I created...

It's a small canvas that also fit the current challenge at the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge-Around the House. For the challenge we are supposed to use household items. I used crayons, a blowdryer, the cap from a spray bottle (the circles), and post it notes for masking stamps.
The stamps are all Unity. Christy Tomlinson Classified Newsprint, Dream Big Itty Bitty, Learn-Live-Hope Bitty Itty Bitty, and the April13 KOM.
This was so much fun to make but I'll have to wait to do the crayon thing again. I tripped a circuit. Seems using the AC unit and blow dryer was a little too much for my house. Who knew? Or maybe I could just unplug the AC long enough to melt the crayons. Artists sometimes suffer for their art right?
Have a great and creative week!
Cool canvas.

Been there, done that, (tripping the circut). LOL! Yes, for art as fun as this canvas, you should shut down the AC. I love the random circles and stamps to really show off the splash you got from the crayons.
