Hi Everyone....I took a breather yesterday as I finished a big project and thankfully have a new bunch of projects I have to work on.....So I took the afternoon off to finish a custom piece that I created from a memory from my last Mother's Day this year....Cole and I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens and had a wonderful day ...while we were there he gave me a kiss and a big hug and my heart melted......Here are some photos from that day.....I created this custom watercolour as inspired by that day...and that special kiss.....he is the greatest gift I have ever received!!!If you need a cool gift you can purchase one of these paintings...It is created with inspiration from one of your photos...you can pick one up in my new Etsy Shop....
I also was lucky enough to be contacted by a wonderful stamp maker who is now using my special illustration of a cupcake on some stamps in her shop..... Blossom Stamps is working with me....she created stamps from my cupcake artwork...

Hello,
Lovely painting. I would truly love to win this one.

The painting is awesome! I knew it was you when i opened it up!! Nice red lips!!
Congrats on the stamp..... that is sooooo cool!
I am always amazed at how productive you are. Love the painting and your sweet stamps as well. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
At first I thought you were giving away this portrait of you and Cole! I was thinking NOOOO!!!! It is so sentimental, personal and sweet. One of the most beautiful pieces I've seen you do. It's amazing Diana.
Congratulations on the stamp gig! I wish you all the success in the world, and as many opportunities presented to you then you could ever dream of. You deserve it!!!
of course i love your stamps and this new watercolour with you and cole is magical. of course i am a really lucky person as i have an original atc that you painted of maggie and me, which is on my wall in a special frame and will be cherished forever. (my dil is very jealous and would love it, but i will not part with it!) love ya and good luck with the stamps. xxx
Cole really is the best gift you have ever been given and you are both beautiful.
Diana I can't thank you enough for sending so much love to me especially at this time.
Love Renee xoxo
Dear Diana, the kiss painting is so sweet.
