Handprints and footprints

Here a picture of my grandson's hands and footprints. If anyone is interested and would like their grandchilds prints, send me a print of your grandchild on artist or scrapbook paper and I will make into a picture that is worth hanging for a small fee. Also let me know of your interest what you would like it make into to such as this jungle print. BTW my daughter in law loved this. I also made one for a friend.

Peppermint Patties Snowman

Oh, these were so much fun to make and who doesn't like to make snowman. Take your punches and punch out 3 black scallops, 3 white circles, 1 black hat, 1 black strip of paper, and purchase 3 round peppermint patties. Paint on a cute face and dots for the buttons. Add snow to the hat with snow writer, add glitter for some glitz. Now glue all together and you get just the cutest little snowman. If you want to package it you can purchase pretzel bags put your little snowman inside and add a bow to the top to tie.
This would make a nice little teacher present or for a co-worker, grandparent, etc. Enjoy it.

New Fabric Halloween Painting

For the last 3 years my family goes to Racoon Lake for  a hugh Halloween celebration. My grandkids love going and I love spending 3 wonderful days with them and my children. Here is a photo of my sweatshirt I am going to wear for the 3 days and the rest of the month here at home. Thanks to Susie Schmidt for the class she taught at Indy Decorative Artist Chapter.  I added the haunted house and a couple of other changes. I just can't help but to use my artistic license to add additional elements. Hope you enjoy this Halloween Sweatshirt.
