Welcome Back!!! Elissa decided to sharpen her colored pencils and jump in on this one. I'm really happy with her idea, and I'm totally in love with the colors :) Check it out!!!

Imperfect

It's a flower without any petal going up the middle. On your left you will find some 

of the most colorful butterflies ever, and on your right, for some reason, polka dots?!?!

I still love the colors :)

God Bless You All So Much!!!

Love, Elissa

Romans 10: 9-10 ESV

"Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord 

and believe inyour heart that God raised him from the dead, you 

will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified,

and with the mouth one confesses and is saved."

Illustration Friday - Elissa - Cultivate

I really didn't think my older girls were going to do anything for this weeks Illustration Friday, and then I came home to be pleasantly surprised. I love it when my girls pour over a drawing all by themselves and give me something that they are proud of. Elissa really mad me happy because she told me the day before, "I can't draw broccoli," and I told her, "That's because you've never drawn it before." I then began to explain how you look at it in order to draw it, and if you mess up, you have learned something along the way that you can put to the next drawing you do. You keep drawing and drawing until it looks the way you want. She did!!!

I really like that her blond hair is pulled up in this picture. The design on the shirt alsotells me that she's paying attention to detail. She's holding a green tomato and her broccoli. Like I told her, draw it until you are happy!

Here's a link to her sister's picture for Illustration Friday

God Bless You,

Gen 2:8 KJV

"And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; 

and there he put the man whom he had formed."

CHILDREN HOME SCHOOLED PLAY-DOH TURTLES!!!

The girls learned all about turtles last week for school and Mommy had them make little turtles out of play-doh. She liked them so much that she hot glued them together :) I thought they were cute as well, and the girls were so proud of them that we thought that they needed a home on the interwebs.

Illustration Friday - Elissa - Warning

Welcome back to our art blog! Elissa was excited about doing this one and actually wanted us to do some research to see what a Police car has on it. She was the one that came up with the Police Car as a warning to people and her older sister played off the idea and used it on hers too! Here's her picture!

Warning

I hope the next time you see a police car with it's lights on it is a warning to you to be safe and not stopping you to keep other people safe ;)

Thanks and God Bless,

Elissa

Romans 13:3-4

For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer.

Illustration Friday - Elissa - Swarm

Thank you for checking out Elissa's picture. It's for Illustration Friday's word Swarm and she drew it in colored pencil. She loves the winter and the snow and thought that a swarm of snow would make a very pretty picture. Here it is :)

I'm so excited because Elissa is finally learning to draw on the Wacom Tablet. She's been getting discouraged, but was able to color some. This is a really big step and an opening into a wonderful world for her. Here is her picture for Illustration Fridays word, Layers.

Elissa - Hug a Bug

Here's the first drawing by my second Daughter, Elissa. This isn't just the first picture she's done for this blog, but it's the first picture that she's been happy enough for me to scan. Praying this will build up her confidence and keep her drawing super pictures :)
