7 Steps to Mommy’s Birthday Painting

Can you believe another week has gone by already? It’s Friday Story Time by Lia again and I want to share the beautiful gift I made for my mommy’s birthday. These are the 7 steps to mommy’s birthday painting.

I started with a blank canvas and added two pink handprints. Then I did the same but with purple paint. Look at my purple, it was so fun to paint my hand and pop it on the canvas!

After my handprints dried, I painted stems on each flower and made grass along the bottom. I love painting and this was such a fun project.

Look at the little hearts I painted in the middle of each handprint! Now they are looking like flowers! After looking at the painting I decided it needed something more. Hmmm, what should I add?? I KNOW!!! I’ll put a few ladybugs in the grass!! I carefully put little dots on the body and made little heads with a black marker.

Mama helped me write the message and I signed my name with the date. But it still needed one more thing. The finishing touch was the sun peeping out of the corner! Since I created this in Lia’s Sunshine Studio, I had to add some sunshine!

Look I made a flower garden for mommy! I gave mommy her present on her birthday last Sunday, March 7th and she loved it. Happy Birthday mommy, I love you!

Mommy has a garden on the wall! For her birthday last year, I painted her a flower and butterfly and now she has her new painting hanging next to her other one! You can see how much bigger my hand is in just a year! I’m growing like flowers! This is the blog I wrote last year – http://themarthareview.com/mommys-birthday-surprise/ Can you tell mommy loves pink and purple?

But I made another surprise for mama! Today is mama’s birthday so I made her a drawing with my hands and turned them into a big heart! I drew the heart all by myself!

Mama loves Angels and mommy and I got her this beautiful glass Angel with a blue rose inside. I even made the hearts and signed my name L-I-A! Mama was so surprised and love it! Happy Birthday Mama, mommy and I love you!!!

So my Friday Story Time blog started with 7 steps to mommy’s birthday painting and ended with a surprise for mama’s birthday too! See you next time with another fun Friday Story Time by Lia!!
