Last year a sorority sister of mine, Courtney Devine (as she is formerly known), blogged about a piece of art she received from a secret gift exchange at her church. The second I saw it I knew I would be doing the same thing with every one of my children!
This year, I had my chance!!! Here it is....
Yes, this is Carter's "Bum"! Check out that crack!
We joke that he can always fall back on plumbing with a crack like that! (It is very high.)
I'm not completely sure that I am done with it yet. I do have to touch up a black smudge I made with my hand. And I originally thought it would be more cutesy-woo but it kind of turned out more Charlie Brown-esk. If I lived in the US I would have most likely done this on canvas. However, finding art supplies here was chore enough. So I settled with a thin canvas and had a frame made to fit. (Only because that is how you buy frames here and it just costs $3.50).
I purchased several thin canvases of the same size. I plan to do a print for every holiday of the season this year! So this frame will be filled with "Carter Art" for a while!
November: Hand Turkey
December: Foot & Hand Angel
January: Snowman
February: Hand Heart

For another ADORABLE example, check out my sweet nephews' Bumpkins!
If you do it...let me know! I want to see!
