Today, I wanted to post something that I made a couple of years ago after I had to have my sweet dog, Cuddles, put down. She had tumor on her lung and it was inoperable. I still feel so sad about it because I miss her so much. A week or so after her death, I found a wall hanging project idea in one of my craft magazines I decided to make one of Cuddles. It was very comforting to make this project and I have it on the wall by my bed so when I get up each day, there she is, like she always was.
The papers were all scraps and pieces that I had around from other projects. I kept the colors to green, pink and brown. The message of the wall hanging is "A Love Beyond Measure". I purchased 3 canvas panels (4X6) at Michaels and painted them with a sea green acrylic paint before adding the papers and the embellishments. I added little screw eyes into the panels for connecting them together with scraps of ribbon and I added another longer length of ribbon for hanging the whole thing.
Thanks for looking,
Cheri
