Painting, painting....and more painting...and much neglecting of all other things!


 So...I started out with this...
which evolved into:

 

 

Here's the layout of all the canvases.
I struggled here and there...
but of course the creativity clicked on and I came out with:

 

C.J.-Chelsea Jane
W.R.-Wesley Roy
Our two love birds...
with heads in the clouds...

 

 "i heart u"
So cute when the bright flash light is not there!

 

 October 24th...wonderful day of the marriage for Chels and Wes!
(*note- they are getting married the day after my anniversary with Russ!)

 

I did a little rearranging of the canvases....it worked much better for me and my artsy brain!

 

My favorite piece of the whole thing!!!


 

And then I added a sillouette of the Rexburg temple, where they are getting married.


 

And here is the finished product...well, almost finished! I am adding a saying from a song in vinyl on the small square one at the bottom right...and maybe place some fun words in vinyl in a few other places...and then I have to paint the sides and then I am done!

What a fun project to do! Just wanted to share since I know a lot of you were curious as to how things were going. I would love to have your input!

YUMMINESS...



 Such beautiful, sticky goodness in a Kerr jar...



 

That does not last long enough...
*sigh*



 

 Yup...
I know EXACTLY how you feel, kid.


I sure love canning...oh...just about anything!
It makes me feel good inside...
much like those Kerr jars must feel like...
FULL of yummy pears!

hehe...
