Rosalie & Co frankenart mart Urban Sketchers The East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse Ma Petite Valisette 1AM SF Home - They Draw & Cook ✥ Z Gallerie Subway Art Knock Off ✥ I've been longing for some subway art for awhile. I didn't want to do a stencil or paint project because I wanted it to look legit! I wanted to basically have this Z Gallerie piece that costs hundreds, but of course I'd like to pay umm, nothing 40 bucks. One day I came across this tutorial from A Thoughtful Place. I thought to myself, self, you can do that. So I did. I found it to be just as easy as the regular word program. First, you want to format your text box into the same dimensions as your canvas will be. Second, content, decide what you're writing on your canvas. Third, pick your fonts. Fourth, layout, I tried to keep the overall visual flow the same as my inspiration-specifically the L.A. canvas. Fifth, matching the black background using shading effects. OK, you're done with your poster! I purchased the canvas at Michael's. Sixth, adhere your poster to the canvas with Mod Podge. If you rub the Mod Podge when it's wet the black ink will smear over the white print.

They Draw & Travel Typewriter Letters *** Because someone asked..yes! I have one in my Etsy if you would like...smiles~*** Oh have I got a good one for you today {I hope}. I first started with some good ole' inspiration. Now I know some of you worry about getting it just perfect,letters and all... I used a thin piece of board for mine because I didn't want to hang anything too heavy. I painted it an ivory color. Paint your circles in black. For those of you that are like me and need some extra help....print your font on paper and use as a guide. You can use trace paper or I tend to just trace over the font and use a little bit of pressure. You are now ready to paint in your letters. Now for those neat little accent lines around your letters..I used a lid from a thermos. Just dip in in a saucer of paint and press down. I didn't make a complete circle on all of them. After your beauty dries completely you will need to age that baby up. Now the only problem you may have is deciding where to put your art!
