Hello, crafting friends! It has been years since I last posted to my site and I’m posting today at the request of my very special and precious 9-year old granddaughter, Mikayla. I spent time crafting with her for Christmas, and she asked that I post her work on my site. Therefore, I am granting her request by sharing her beautiful pieces of artwork. I love crafting with her as she is so creative and I am so proud of her and her work. The photo below is the first of three pieces of her work.
She made the above piece of art starting with a piece of cardstock that was embossed with the Spellbinders Scenic Poinsettias 3D Embossing Folder. Using the Tim Holtz Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Ink and a blending brush, she covered selected poinsettias in blue. The leaves and center poinsettia were colored with markers. She added three Spellbinders buttons on the front and wrote, “Merry Christmas” on the back of the cardstock.
Her second piece of art is a small snowman’s head made from a Tealight Candle to which she added a snowman hat, eyes, smile and a metallic thread around the hat. It is so cute when the light is on. She made this for her little brother.
She made her third piece of art for her little sister. It is a floral bouquet. She made the floral stems with flowers I had made years ago from Heartfelt Creations products, and adhered the flowers to wooden dowels. She inserted the floral stems into a funnel-shaped piece of cardstock that she made.
I hope you enjoy her art as much as I do! I am sure she would be excited to receive comments on her work! Any comment will be visible upon approval.
