With the other two canvas I made some crayon art. I had leftover maps and decided to cut them out in a circle, so that's in the middle of the board. I had some traveling scrapbooking paper so I cut that out and glued it to the corners, I didn't want just plain canvas corners. Then I divided the crayons into two different color pallets. I glued down the crayons with tacky glue and let them dry for about 5 minutes. Finally I used a blow dryer and melted the crayons both into the center and out to the corners.

Make It Work
I've been making a lot of collages lately. It's very easy, and fairly cheap. I went to Joann's and bought a 3 pack of canvas board, some Modge Podge glue, and some scrap booking paper. I got colors that looked good together, but not too matchy. Then I started cutting out pieces, I cut out the bigger pieces first, and laid them down on my board first. Then I layered it with other smaller pieces of different paper and patterns. Finally I added some ribbon and the text "Make it work" Tim Gunn's catchphrase.
