Family for Life.....US

Hey my friends.....

I am finally home after a WONDERFUL relaxing time in Florida
having fun in the sun and visiting family.

Upon my return, I quickly flipped everything to leave for a 

Scrappy Weekend where I taught 3 classes. 

I returned home to get to go to my 

Favorite 4 year olds Birthday Party.

phewwww!!!

TODAY, I took some me time and had a bit of free creating.

I had this canvas that needed to be redone....

So I grabbed it and let the process just flow...

no videos, no cameras....just creating!!

There is layer upon layer upon layer....

some East Coast sand I brought home from Florida,

a little bit of Seth Apter's Baked Textures,

and Bon Bon and Night Sky Glimmer Glam.

I dropped the colors onto the canvas with a pipette

and moved with various Glimmer Mists.

My sister captured this precious moment of

my FAVORITE niece and I

at my Grandson party.

I knew I wanted to preserve it on canvas

and it just went WONDERFULLY with the canvas.

I cut out our images and adhered them on

a piece of manhandled burlap.

I colored the flowers using various layers of the

Night Sky and Bon Bon Glimmer Glam.

For the leaves I painted on a layer of Night Sky,

when dry I added another layer of Lime Cordial Glam.

I tied a piece of jute around the canvas.

I dug out some of my cardboard letters

and spritzed them with Bronze Glimmer Mist.

This is.......Us!

I hope you enjoyed my creative journey.....

I know it was good for my soul!
