The possibilities with canvas are endless. Among the many many things I love about Maya Road, I absolutely adore all the canvas products. Canvas is a wonderful base for all manner of artistic and creative projects. I love the frayed edges, the way you can stitch it and it's a wonderful alternative to paper for a unique album.
One of my latest album projects uses the Canvas Star Coaster Album. It's a sweet little album that fits in the palm of your hand and I thought it would be a darling mini baby scrapbook for one of my children.
Canvas albums are easy to add color to and each page of this album has been misted with Green Apple Maya Mist and/or Blue Agave Metallic Mist. It's easy to mist a design onto a page by using a template or mask over the canvas before misting.
Bottlecaps make a perfect accent for the front cover of albums. This Super Mega Bottle Cap is trimmed with Sky Blue Zipper Trim and Earl Grey Tulle Pleat Trim. The inside is filled with a cluster of embellishments: Green Gingham Point Blossoms, Grey Velvet Pleats flowers, a White Time Flies Kraft Clock, White Star Trinket Pins, Black Mini Ticket Strip Transparencies and Vintage Flag Kraft Pins.
The Foundation Chipboard set makes a great frame for photos. This one is stained and inked and then accented with a crown from the Crowns Mini Chipboard Set and trimmed with some Maya Road Crochet Trim.
Maya Road stamps also make a great accent on a canvas album. This page is stamped with the Vintage Scale and Balance stamp. It's personalized with a name spelled with the Jonathon Mini Chipboard Alphabet.
Kraft Notes and Envelopes make a great place to journal and hide little bits of memorabilia. One of my favorite Maya Road stamp sets is the Spool Sentiments stamp set which decorates this envelope along with a Green Resin Blossom.
To finish off, here's a little peek at the misting on the back of the album.
Have you tried Maya Road Canvas items? How do you like to alter them?

What kind of adhesive did you use to attach things to the canvas?
