Snow people are awesome!

I love to paint Christmas!  I have some great nativity sets I plan to paint.  But right now I want to show you my snowman!


And here are two of his little friends......
The big guy is a combination of wood and fabric.  See the little snow baby in his overall pocket?!!!!

I have to share......Mark was in his high school drama class play.  They did "Charlie Brown Christmas."  The kids all did really good.  Mark was Linus!!!!  He did awesome.  And his friend, Trent, was the Crooked Elf in another skit.  Excellent!
 This is a picture of Mark in a little skit about returning gifts.  Seems this gift was way too big.
 This is the Crooked Elf and his band as they perform.
 The Crooked Elf and a couple of the other acts that performed.

OK, I am a proud mom.  Way to go, Mark!

Sister's Birthday Gift

I just had to do Mark's idea - and he helped me - to make a gift for Nancy for her birthday.  I had seen this little poem about growing up with a sister and thought it was perfect.  So we went to several thrift stores looking for the perfect sized canvas picture and after only two stops - found it! This is the canvas with the letters I stuck on it and I began there in the bottom corner to paint it a dark brown.  The canvas is a golden with thin trees and some words in cursive in a light brown.   As you see, I was using a paint brush, but I changed to a small roller.  It worked much much better. Completely painted the top and the sides of the canvas a brown color.  Then I let it dry - probably about 30 minutes.  Then pealed off the letters! Here is the finished product: And it's true.  I did tell on her - it was for her own good. :)
