Getting crafty

I have a little bit of time (like 2.5 weeks) before I have to start training for my marathon, so what better time to start obsessing on something new right?  I bought some canvas to make a friend a Mother's Day gift and had seen a lot of cute things on Pinterest that I wanted to make for the kids... so I finally bought the materials for it.  I think that Jane's present turned out really cute and I think she will really like it :)  Special thanks for the men for putting that one together (they did it while Jane and I were out at a concert... so we were sneaky sly!)

I realize I still have to erase the line on there, but I think it turned out nicely.  Her son Christian's handprints are on top and Ava's are on bottom

Then, I painted something for Dude.  He loves the book, "Where the Wild Things Are" and he saw this  and asked me if I could... so while Grace and G were out driving the marathon course I had a little bit of quiet time to finish it.  I think that it turned out really nicely and Dude was pretty thrilled about it when he got home.




I have an idea for Lucy's canvas... I sing "You are my sunshine" to her and I was thinking of painting her that... I've seen a few cute ideas on Pinterest that I think I could pull off, so that will be my next project!  :)  Pics to follow.
