I am going to be creating canvases for a few different occasions today, such as birthdays and graduations. I’ll be demonstrating how to add napkin art and then how to create a little pocket on the back to add gift cards, sentiment cards, treats, and more!

Every creative can use this in their craft room, and it comes together very easily.
