Live Laugh Love

I don’t have a card tonight.  Instead I would like to show you my first attempt at a piece of canvas work. 

My mother has had failing health for some time and now needs constant care. Her room is very clinical so I made a canvas to bright it up a little.



I must admit I kept putting it off because I haven’t done anything like this before.  But time is running out and if I was ever going to make it now was the time.  It isn’t perfect but I am happy that I have been able make it for my mother.   

Thank you for visiting.

  11. Doing a little catching up after my holiday, and this piece immediately caught my eye. It's very different from your usual style, but you sure know how to do the shabby chic style as well! I'm sure this decorative piece looks great on the wall!
