The Makings of a creative genius!


OK so not to brag or anything, lol. But my little girl is totally a chip off the block! She loves to create, paint, scrapbook, and comes up with all sorts of unique and amazing works of art. At the end of the year, Teacher Annette gave all the kids a certificate with sayings like best speller, etc....And what did Tayla's say you ask??? Can you imagine, it said for being so creative!!!!! Awww, I love that she has a passion for Art just like her Mama! And her imagination is endless, she is my inspiration and heart.

Here is the final masterpiece....lol. A unicorn and a rainbow....xoxoxoxo




Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were.
But without it we go nowhere.

What I consider one of my best LO's.....



A Layout based on a sketch they provided....





I also did this one as well for the sketch but didn't submit it.



And I threw in a card for good measure...I am not the greatest card maker by any means but was kinda sweet on this one I made for My Mom for Easter.....
