on friday, cheri and i got together for a bit of crafting. we used to craft once a week. this was pre-bebe (for cheri) and with my boys driving me a bit more nuts during the day, i needed desperately to get out of the house once a week.
unfortunately, now we craft in our minds when we wait in traffic or wait in the doctor's office. read: we have no time.
we decided we'd make more of an effort, since walking around target is great and all - but not creatively stimulating.
following this tutorial, we spent an afternoon painting away. i think we both ended up with three paintings. this one was my first and i love the quote, so i might re-do it. i'm not crazy about how the ombre came out. i also made one that is super-duper-top-secret so i can't show it just yet.
lesson learned: make time to get crafty.
thanks for posting the tutorial link!!
ReplyDeleteyou are welcome! i'm anxious to try again. what did justin say? chris was like, ummm. i don't like them.
ReplyDeletehaha. i've learned to just keep that stuff to myself and magically let it appear in the house later. i did buy some watercolor paper, so we should def do it again...
