Happy Canada Day!!! SOC Week Four and my 10 Minute Warm up.....

A little Canada Day inspired piece.....

Today we celebrate Canada Day! We are truly blessed and grateful to live in this amazing Country....Today we celebrate as a Nation....everyday we celebrate as a Family! We were at a special party Yesterday Celebrating 100 Years in the life of a sweet man who is our friend's Grandfather...it was a lot of fun and an honor to be part of his big day....Imagine everything he has seen in his lifetime....wow!!!

It is week Four already in SOC 2013....and this week the colours are pale pink and gray and I took my 10 Minute Warm Up time to mess around with my Pink Lady Illustrations!! I hope you enjoy this piece and I hope you enjoy the long weekend!!!

and now back to 10 Minute Warm Up and what its all about.....it is a super fun blog challenge!!! it only takes like 10 Minutes!!!!and it can be anything.....

10 Minute Warm Up is about taking 10 minutes of your day to breathe, relax, open up your mind to possibilities and then create something....you can be inspired to sketch your coffee cup....something on your desk....your table....anything....try it....it is a great way to start the day....then pop back here and share it so we can all see and be inspired by each other!!! I have a linkie thing here so you can add your work any day of the week ....Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and....Sunday....so join me!!! won't you!

Happy Monday Everyone....and Happy Creating.....
