More canvases heading to homes for the holidays.

I know. I know. You want to see my kids! Well, you are just going to have to bear with me. Only a couple more times! I am almost caught up on orders. And YES, pepper, I have your order!! It is going to rock. Even though it does have stinkin' Razorbacks on it! Ok, so here goes...
If I have done these presents once, I have done them 30 times! And not two of them are the same!
I particularly like the black! This is the one and only that has a black present on it. Whatcha think?

And Kaitlyn responded to my cries of distress for bows, and we bartered a little deal-io! She wanted a purple, black and white "Always kiss me goodnight" , and I wanted 12 bows!
TaTONKA! Good Trade!
name that movie!
Again... my helper.
These went to Susan. and Emily, I think!
The neutrals truly run together!
i know for sho that Susan wanted this verse.
and just so you can see my level of commitment, this is me painting with a baby on my hip!
Wasn't the first time. Won't be the last!
Dude. My GG is a tit! She just crawls up to you and holds those hands up. Then SOBS when she has to wait a split second. So pitiful! Um um um! She usually wins though.

I really liked the way these colors turned out. A little greener than usual, but for some reason, I really liked it. Emily is giving this one to her sister.
hellllllloooo there, little helper.
I am not big on capitalizing tonight, can you tell?
This one is a cutie for Susan's friends.

i think it turned out really cute. Love the names on the tags.
I mean, traditional decorations are cute and all, but a CUSTOM canvas with your family name on it is going to be awesome worked into the tree or on a mantle!
First time for me to try these ornaments. I don't know if I am a fan. I like them, but I LOVE that big round red ornament! Heeeeeyyyy, another helper. Sorry Shermans, check for drool!
These two are for teachers. Special request by Susan for a "Joy to the World". I like that saying on them. I tried a horizontal...
And a vertical!
Hate to tell the 576 of you followers who didn't order a canvas that I have a few more to show. But to that one who did, you got a preview! And Susan... sign up as a follower! You didn't sneak by!
Melanie, your college roommate, now known to the masses as Mo!

A few more canvases. Tell your relatives to look away!

Ok, you had your warning. Sorry if I am totally ruining a surprise. Please be warned... if you want me to keep it hush hush, better tell me. (I know you did, Cindy, and again... sorrry!)

Here we go.









All new ones! I just had to try some new things!





Have you SEEN this Martha Stewart glitter from Michael's?! OMG. If you have a crafter kid in the family, get them THIS! I LOVE it!

This is what my kitchen looks like in the wee hours of the night! All of this is textured, and now has to rest overnight to dry!
Why, yes it IS 4:53 am! I got up at 2:00 am after taking a prescription med and not knowing about its side effects. I just stayed right on up through the rest of the morning. I RARELY get time alone to do this, so I was using my time wisely!


hey, Kelly Crum. I am pretty sure it was you who got a 5/$100 potluck of all new Christmas designs. Hope you like em.
No, wait... these aren't the ones! These were kinda special ordered! Wanted red polka dots and red ornaments for the teachers. I threw in the gingerbread just for spice!

and LOOOOOVED the glitter ornament!
aha... these are yours, Kelly.
I think.


And my cousin coaches at a local high school. This is a special commision by his mom. I don't think he reads my blog, so... so be it.
Sheridan. I reaaaaaallly liked doing these for you!

Such a sweet thing to share with your friends who can really understand what it is you are dealing with...
and hey, ANYONE who worked at St. Jude is a FRIEND of mine!

Oh, and looky looky who was up bright and early to "help" me.

This one turned out so cute! I send it to Texas for a fundraiser for a little boy who has leukemia. I hate cancer!

Got about this many more (at least) to post tomorrow or in a few. If you don't want it out there, email me and tell me. Don't think I can take anymore orders to get them out in time for Christmas. If not time sensitive, bring it on! mgroves11@comcast.net
