Default Printing Photos on Canvas?

Has anyone done this with success? I just saw this post over a the Daily Digi and I would love to do this with a photo for over our bed. I have no idea where to print on canvas. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Susan

WHCC does it, I believe shutterfly does it, and there's another company called colorinc that I've heard good things about too.

ETA: I think there are more companies that offer it, but I can't think of them right now.

You can actually do it yourself if you do smaller sizes. All you do is print it out on dark shirt iron on transfers and iron it right on the stretched canvas.....I saw it in Scrapbooking and Beyond latest issue, it is VERY cool!!! Try the website to see if they have the info: Scrapbooking & Beyond

ETA: And from what I can tell a lot cheaper too!!!!

I googled it, and everything I saw was just print on the iron-on, and transfer just as you would with a regular t-shirt or whatever.

It is really the coolest thing I have seen...it is such a great mix of both digital and well, other stuff....not too sure I would call it Hybrid but I guess it is close enough. A must see for sure. I will try and get the pages from the mag scanned but prolly not till late tomorrow or Thursday. Something I feel the need to share with my fellow scrappers
