I made a mixed media canvas for my mother this year for Mother's Day. My Aunt Becky brought us all kinds of stuff to use and showed us how to make this.
She even brought her baby Sydney to craft with us. I played my recorder for her. She says so many words. We had a lot of fun.
This is a picture of our craft area that she set up.
Here I am getting started. She was explaining what we were going to do.
I finally got to start on my project.
This is all of us together. Me with my sister and our friend Sarah and Sarah's mom.
Aunt Becky always has prizes for us to win when we work with her. She asks us questions and if we can answer correctly she gives a prize. Isn't she the best!!!
Here I am with my finished canvas.
Thanks so much for coming by and checking out my Mother's Day gift for mom.
