I have a very special friend who is having a baby in June and I wanted to create a special gift for her baby shower so she could keep it for a long time and know how excited I am that she is having a baby!
I am not a great painter but decided to give it another try! I used my cricut as well so I can't take all the credit. I LOVE books and this baby will, no doubt grow up loving books as well. One of my favourite children's books is "Love you forever" by Robert Munsch. Such a fabulous story and I thought this would be a perfect fit for her nursery :)
I started by painted a canvas totally grey and patiently waited for it to dry :) haha. They are not finding out the sex so neutral was the way to go with colours.
While I waited, I googled a silhouette of a mother rocking a baby and printed it out - it would be the perfect picture to look at for painting on the canvas. I then printed out the words to my favourite quote from the book on my cricut and added that to the canvas. The last touch was added yellow polka dots around the edge.
Turns out she loved it! Can't wait to go for a visit and see it hanging in the nursery :)
