Now for my project....
I wanted to see how easily
scan directly from an album
and knew I wanted to do something
with a picture of my sister as a child....
she passed away a few years ago and I 
wanted to do a Mixed Media Canvas
so this was a great time to try it...

I took the cover off the scanner and placed
it upside down directly on the photo album
over the picture I wanted to scan....the
comes with an SD Memory Card
so I was able to take it out and download
the photo right to my computer...
where I re-sized it and printed it out
onto muslin (that I had ironed onto
freezer paper to feed through my printer).

 I covered a 12 x 12 canvas with decorative tissue paper
which I crumpled up before applying to give it extra texture.
to give depth and get a color I liked.

I used Gel Medium to adhere the
muslin photo to the canvas.

 I knew I wanted the piece to say:
"Remember TIME waits for No One"
and that I wanted it to be a clock....
so I die cut "Remember",
"ime" for Time and the number "4"
I used a wood "T" for Time,
metal letters for "waits" and
plastic letters for "No One"
I gathered my letters and words, 
found some beautiful lace to use and
paper charms for photo corners....
I arranged everything before gluing anything
down to be sure of placement....
to put it all together.

I love how it turned out and that it was
so easy to get the image with the
