How To Make a Lighted Busted Canvas with Printables | Christian Craft Paper Tutorial
In today’s tutorial, I’m showing you how to create a beautiful lighted busted canvas using this month’s Crafting & Christ Printable Club designs! 🌟
This project has been a fan favorite — and for good reason! It’s a stunning way to bring light, Scripture, and meaning into your home décor or gift giving this season. In this step-by-step tutorial, I’ll walk you through how to:
-
Use printable Christian designs to create your own Light of the World canvas
-
“Bust” your canvas for a dimensional layered look
-
Add lighting for a warm, faith-filled glow
-
Customize your piece with angels, hymns, and Scripture from this month’s printables
Whether you’re crafting to decorate your home, bless a friend, or simply spend quiet time with the Lord, this project is a reminder that His light still shines — even in the simplest things we create. ✝️
