after a very hectic tuesday, i arrived home to find this beautiful handmade card from janet in my letterbox. it brought a smile to my face and made my day....thanks, janet!
my book order - creative paint workshop by ann baldwin - arrived from fishpond. YAY!! i first saw this book mentioned here by janet and i just had to have one. it is filled with creative goodies on abstract and mixed media art and i can hardly wait to try out some of the techniques.
i'm also into barbara erskine novels at the moment
poor little man....he HATES baths with a passion!
i did start painting the design on the cupboard door for the desk i've been refurbishing.
here's where i'm at so far
still a ways to go yet
i've had aaron home sick today. he came down with a rash, mild fever, and upset tummy over the weekend and, much to aaron's delight, the doctor advised to keep him home from school until both the fever and tummy clear up. i think aaron hates school as much as cody hates his baths. lol
i hope you all had a fabulous weekend!
love, light and peace
hope aaron is feeling better soon. That cupboard door is unreal! It doesnt look like it needs more work? I guess when it is done it will be amazing.... I am waiting waiting waiting for an amazon order, so I know how it feels when a book arrives! I am going to check out your link for fishpond now. Have a creative week Serena!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card! Great books to read and a reluctantly clean puppy--hehe! Hope Aaron feels better soon--even if he'd rather be home--hehe!
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be one beautiful door for that desk! Wow! :)
Oooo! I love the flower painting! That's the cupboard door??
ReplyDeleteI hope Aaron feels better soon! :)
I missed you honey, but I'm back! :)
Oh wow, I love your desk drawer!! And the card is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI can feel your excitement about your new book! Have fun curling up somewhere and reading through it. I get that way when I buy art books. All else can fade away while I get engrossed..
Hi Serena,
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the cupboard doors, great painting.
Poor Aaron, I hope he is well enough to return to school soon.
My babe is also home with a sniffle.
Can't wait to see what comes out of your new book!
Hugs,
Anna
I hope aaron feels better soon (even though it means he has to go back to school ;) )
ReplyDeleteThe door looks beautiful :D bright and calming at the same time
I'm glad you like the card. And I hope you like the book. I have enjoyed it and learned several new things from it.
ReplyDeleteI hope Aaron is feeling better!
ReplyDeleteLovely card!
And your beautiful work !
Poor Cody and poor Aaron! Hopefully both will be over what ails them sooner rather than later. Cody, as soon as he dries off, is probably just fine. Aaron may take a bit longer.
ReplyDeleteHi Serena Sweetie,
ReplyDeleteI am back and trying to catch up on everyone's blogs. Love your photos and the door for your desk is beautiful! Can you come over and help me paint my desk when you are done? :)
I want to paint my sewing table which is now plain white. Poor little Cody is like my Merlin when it comes to baths. He doesn't like them either. :)
Hope aaron is feeling better.
Hugs
The card is lovely. I would have had a smile on my face too after getting that in the mail.
ReplyDeleteI will have to have a flick through of that book when I am over next. It looks good.
Your desk door is looking good. Love the colours.
Looks like you had a lovely week. I love the painting on your cupboard door. It is fabulouse. What a delightful card and poor Cody such is a dogs life lol!
ReplyDeleteThe book looks interesting Serena. How do you like it?
ReplyDeleteThe door painting already looks the biz!
Wow your design for your cupboard door is beautiful!!! I also love reading Dean Koontz too and get right into his books!!
