Happy Birthday Erika...

It's my little cousin's 21st Birthday party on Saturday night.  She asked me to draw a "21" on her canvas, so of course I jumped at the chance.  I had to make sure I didn't get too carried away as all of her friends are going to sign the canvas around the outside of the "21".  Here's how it went...

Circle template and printed numbers...
I traced around the printed numbers since its a bit hard to eyeball it...  taped them on for good measure...

I used a trusty Sharpie - careful to keep within the lines... all that colouring in practice as a kid helped here...
 Then I added some Nomadic Tara henna leaves and flowers...


 Working with a circle is a bit tricky but worth the effort.  Here it is all ready to go to the party and be signed by friends and family...


 Happy 21st Birthday sweet Erika!

  1. the outcome is very very nice. And a great idea, to write on a big 21 canvas.
