Mixed Media Monday - "laughter" ...some fun stuff for a very special Birthday....

Hi Everyone.....

When I saw the theme this week on MMM I immediately thought about the best laughter ever...the laughter of children.....and what better place to hear it...but at a special Birthday party for a wee little fellow turning one....

I wanted to do something special as a keepsake for his Birthday so I painted a special watercolour of him cheering on Team Canada at the Olympics surrounded by colourful balloons and yummy cake.....

This is wrapped and ready for giving under a special frog that I used also as a gift but more so as a fun way to wrap a bunch of special presents for this cute little munchkin.......

I hope they love all the gifts....but especially this custom piece....

If you want to get one of these made, you can contact me....or pop by my Custom Stuff shop.....

Have a wonderful day!!!
Hugs
Diana

Here is my wrapping.... I love wrapping gifts!!! and making them fun for kids....

I did not intend to mislead anyone, we have not heard yet...read Renee's blog...she is in the process until we hear further from her beloved daughter. It is time to pray for The Lord to Bless Renee with a good death.
