Hello everyone. It's Margaret...one more time this week. I just had to post this card that my daughter made. If you've been following this blog for a while, you will be able to see that she is getting better and better. I love how her art is blooming and that she loves sparkles as much as I do! Just goes to show...immerse them young, and immerse them heavily. You will have your own built in stamping partner in crime...the craft will never die! Oh how I remember when we used to have Art Saturdays and Kathy would create some new iris folding template...we've been at this since they were 5 (and my girls have had paintbrushes in their hands at 18 months!) Talk about a determined mother. It is such a wonderful hobby to have--Claudia can spend hours and hours in the art room. I see so many young adults today who have no hobbies...and are unable to handle their stresses. I truly advocate getting kids involved in the arts...even if they are immersed in sports. Builds up the entire brain!
The girl and chair are Magnolia stamps, with a Martha Stewart edging (can barely see as it blends with the paper). She said she found this sentiment stamp in my stash, which I didn't even know I had (LOL)..."My special recipe always includes you!" I will need to look up where this stamp came from. Anyway...I was tickled pink ... inside it says "Surprise"...and it surely was. :) Thanks for indulging me this one night. You will get Kathy back tomorrow, I promise... Margaret
Card created by Claudia Harris, Age 12
This is adorable. If you hadn't said so, I would have thought you had made it, not Claudia! She has really blossomed!!! Well done, girl!!!
