- Chunky card

Dog canvas
Here's the second canvas that I've made... I used the tissue paper canvas technique found here... though sadly the photo does show the outlines of some of my tissue paper but that may be as I had a double layer on one sheet of the tissue didnt realise till i'd glued it :( so it's meant to look like a graffiti wall scene.
