Hi there! Hope you are all enjoying the weekend! Yesterday, Scott and I joined went to a Spring training baseball game with a few friends who were visiting from out of town. The weather was perfect: blue, sunny skies and 80+ degrees. Surely helps explain the sold out stadium. Tina and I are going for a bike ride then April is coming over today so I can help here make her graduation invites which takes place on Friday, May 10th.
I made this mixed media canvas featuring one of my favorite photos of April and Jerry.
I combined a bunch of manufactured flowers, chipboard and metal embellishments from my stash.
I added a stamped bird image from Inspired by Spring and duo sentiments from Birthday Sentiments. The flowers were made using Die-namics Mini Rolled Roses, the lock and key were made using Die-namics Keys and Locks.
For sketch inspiration, I played along with Unscripted Sketches.
Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you have a great day / evening!
Be Sweet ;)
