Art journaling is a forever passion in my life. Today we’re teaming up with Canon USA to share a simple, but fully customizable way, to make art journal pages that hang on your walls at home!
Old photos are my favorite photos. I feel lucky to have a big collection of old family photos, and I am always looking for fresh ways to display them in our home.
Here’s how I made these art journal inspired banners without damaging any original photos.
To create your own art journal banner, stitch the top of a piece of canvas paper to create a loop. Adhere a printed photo to the canvas and cut a triangle shape out of the bottom of the canvas to create a banner shape.
The rest is easy (and SO fun!). Add paint, sequins, stitching, handwriting, drawings and anything that makes you smile. 😀
Last, put sticks through the loops and tie string to both ends. Your banners are complete!
Now it’s your turn! Dig out your favorite old photos and give them a fresh new life. xo. Elsie

I love this! I have a ton of old photos that I half don’t know what to do with because I don’t want to damage them all. I love how clear the scanned pictures turned out!!
