DIY Abbey Road Canvas

Hello all my fellow crafters!

Sorry I've been gone for so long. It's been a busy past few months. Hope you all have kept up with your crafting!
Today's DIY project is fairly easy! Let's get started!

Things you Need:
-canvas (size is your choice)
-paint (your choice) - I chose black and white!
-paintbrushes
-paper silhouettes of The Beatles

Step 1:
Print out the silhouettes in the size of your choice. Try not to make them too big though. You want it to be proportional to the canvas. Cut them out and tape them down to the canvas.

Step 2:
Next take the paint and paint around the silhouettes. Once you have painted around them, splatter the paint on the canvas. Let the canvas dry.

Step 3:
Once the canvas is dry, peel off the taped silhouettes. Some of the paint may have seeped under the paper silhouettes. You will need to touch it up with the white paint. Let it dry. You make need to do a couple of coats.

Step 4:
Once it is dry, seal it with a glossy sealer. Let that dry and you are finished!

I made this for my sister for Christmas. She loved it! Happy Crafting!!!!
