meet Amari, my newest babybud

Celebrating Motherhood...

is the theme for my latest canvas. I had recently completed a number of images and this one is a favourite, so...here she is.
Pink, flowers, hearts and sweetness went into this theme, just like a mother-to-be!!

This canvas is a mixed media painting. I used many layers for the background, doilies, paint techniques, stencils, stamps, and rub-ons to complete my "pretty-in-pink" canvas.


I hope you enjoy my sweet little canvas...

whisper words of wisdom

My latest canvas of mixed media art.

Growing and learning, blossoming from a garden

of wisdom.....a girls journey.

This was a fun canvas and a very personal canvas.

Sometimes it is just best to "let it be"

"I get by with a little help from my friends" MEOW KITTY

I was thinking of what I could do for Autumn, and I came up with this "friend" card. I colored 3 Meow Kitty images using my prisma color pencils and mounted them on a flower I cut out with my Cricut. I love the Fancy Pants paper - "like Father like Son," I used that for my color theme. The reverse side of the paper is the light colored blue strip on the bottom of the card...called " stud muffin" - how cute is that?

John Lennon's lyrics were the theme for my card... love the Beatles.

Happy Autumn day, I hope you all have friends that help you get by!!!

Garden Babybud Pretty in Pink

Hello,
It has been a long time since I have posted a card. We have been very busy with the new Etsy Store, and the new Digi site we belong to. So here the latest.
I wanted to do something different for the hair, so I punched out a whole lot of little flowers and glued them on instead of coloring her hair with my prisma pencils. I put some pearls and glitter stones in the centre of some of them to add some dimension. I love the way she turned out. Sweet, pretty and just right for summer.
I call her Angel Baby, I hope you enjoy her.
Happy summer.
Mary Anne
