Here's another pinsperation finally complete. I've seen the quote canvas arts a few times, but I finally decided to do it after seeing it done by the blog Southern Belle Soul Mountain Bride Heart.

My awesome sister helped me out again and printed me out some vinyl letters (I owe her big time) and I found this awesome large painting on canvas at Goodwill for only $3; Sweetness. Basically I used a ruler (yes, I was patient for once) and place the letters where I wanted them to be.
*you don't need a cricut or silhouette, you can buy vinyl letters at Micheals and maybe even Walmart
Then I painted over them. I thought the actual painting was to beautiful to paint over completely, so I left some to show in the background. After the paint dried, I removed the letters.
This was actually intended for the little ones room, but I loved it so much that I decided to hang it above our table. After all, I probably need this reminder more than he does right now. Maybe when he's older and can read I'll put it in his room.
I LOVE this!! I'm going to try this!! I saw several canvases at the Goodwill by me and I sat and stared and tried to think of something creative to do with them, and .. nothing! This would be it.. now I have to go back over there and pick them up! Thanks!!
