on Cardboard

I was challenged to think of a "getting to know you art project" for my Girl Scouts. We have some new girls this year! So I found this really cute idea online..making a painting with words that describe "ME"..So being inspired by Danita Art (one of my favorites) I made this little sweetie on cardboard and I LOVE HER!!! I think I might be doing more like this!!
Thanks for visiting me on my blog..long time to no see..but I'm still here making ART!

growing up!

My little girl is growing up! She now has braces.

Lack of Blogging!

I'm sorry to have to announce this on my blog. But my lack of blogging is due to a little girl who has grabbed at my heart! My cousin's little girl age 9 has been diagnosed with brain cancer. She had a brain tumor. They removed the tumor and then was diagnosed with brain cancer. She is a VERY brave little girl..she now fights cancer every day!  She is being treated in Chicago. She has to take 6 pills a day and also gets radiation 5 days a week. She's on week 3 of her treatment. She will be treated for cancer for 6 weeks..so she is already mid-way through! She is now starting to lose her hair and asking questions..questions about dying! It just breaks my heart that a little child has to endure this... also a mother, a father, and also a sister! They are a strong family with a super size loving bond. Please if you can..pray for this family and pray for Alexis!
Thank You so much!!

a new puppy!!

There is a new puppy in the house. He's so CUTE and named: Bleu!!!

TOFF: Pastel

I'm a bit slow with this post..but we've had some family medical issues. All is good so far..so that is GOOD! I wanted to add this post before the next theme is up and running. The theme this week is "pastel"..I had fun using the pink with yellow and green/blue..pastel  is always a fun theme to work with..reminds me of cotton candy!! I hope your day is a cotton candy day! Enjoy and always make ART.
