November 18, 2019

handmade Christmas tags - from the brand new canvas line from NEXT by Rita Barakat

What will you create next?

Hello, Creatives! Are you looking for a few gift ideas for those creatives in your life? How about making something handmade?

~The picture above- two canvas ATCs (Artist Trading Cards) with the Canvas Christmas icons both from the new Next by Rita Barakat collection! You can use these as a handmade Christmas gift tag or even a special note for good wishes! Surely to make a great first impression!

Gift ideas

Here’s an item that would be a great gift idea for many people on your gift list! This is just one of several brand new handmade Mixed Stitch Canvas Art Journals in the shop! If you are trying to give a handmade Christmas item to a creative friend, what about a handmade journal? Your creative friends would love it with some markers or paints (acrylic and watercolor work). For a more personal touch perhaps you could decorate the cover for that special someone! However, if they don’t like doing artsy things themselves but enjoy your artwork, what about filling it with your beautiful creations? Make it personal, for instance, adding encouraging words or scripture you picked especially for them! They would love it!

~This journal cover has two sets on it, the sunflowers and the flower canvas die cuts.

~The journal in the picture is the Medium Mixed Stich Media Canvas with mixed media paper and canvas pages. This beautiful hand-sewn journal with mixed color decorative stitching on natural canvas is perfect for daily or weekly “art dates” with yourself. Dress it up, dress it down, make it your own. Journal measures approx. 6″ x 9″ and includes canvas and mixed media paper pages. It also includes a zipper pouch for taking those art supplies on the go! We have several size journals in the shop as a part of the new NEXT by Rita Barakat line.

    I love the canvas journals! I’m looking for more handmade gift ideas this year, so this might for the bill for my art loving kiddo!

      He or she would love they make such a great keepsake too! You could do one every year and date it! Imagine having all those journals when he or she is grown! I wish had my artwork from when I was younger!

    I did everything, including the blog hop. I really enjoyed it! I love doing your blog hops because your designers, and you, do more than just cards. I mostly make cards and tags, but love to be inspired to do other things. I love the canvas projects, the rosette, everything. It was great.

In my work I hope you will find encouragement, a little whimsy, something pretty or at least something to make you think. I do believe we need to be thankful and focus on the positive! I am passionate about art and believe that we are all creative in our own ways.
