I've seen so many great canvas pictures lately, so I jumped for joy when the nice people at Easy Canvas Prints contacted me about doing a product review for a canvas picture of my very own. I had such a hard time deciding what to have printed on the canvas. And in the end, I decided I wanted to do something a little different than a photo. I finally decided on putting the image from last year's Christmas card on the canvas.
I have to say, I really loved my experience with Easy Canvas Prints. Their website is clean, simple and SO easy to use; it takes you step-by-step through designing the perfect canvas for your needs. And it shows the updated pricing as you go, so there are no surprises in the end. They had such a quick turnaround and were very responsive to my questions. The image I received is exactly the image I uploaded...and the colors matched so well. Sometimes you never know what you'll get with the difference between computer screens/printers, etc. But I'm thrilled with the results.
And getting my new canvas prompted an overhaul of my gallery wall. I've still got one little bare spot where I'm planning on putting a little needlepoint artwork when I get it finished. Oh, and I apologize for the sub-par, shadowy photos. My couch is in a spot that only gets good light for a few minutes. And I just happened to be stuck in the tire shop with a flat during those few minutes. And I swear the frames are actually straight in person...my photography skills are severely lacking today.
Have a great weekend!

So awesome! Soon you'll be adding another FAMILY shot with THREE KIDDOS! :):)
I love, love, love that. The pics, the colors, awesome.
Looks wonderful
That silhouette is gorgeous. I'd be plastering that puppy on stickers, cards, stamps and all in creation, basically. Go you.
I found this via pinterest! I was wondering, how did you go about making the silhouettes of your family in photoshop for this project/your Christmas card? I'd love any tips you might have - thanks!

Hi Holly,
I just took a photo of my family holding hands, then traced around it in Illustrator, and filled in the shaped. I think you can do the same thing in Photoshop using the pen tool. It is a little time-consuming, but I think it's worth it.
