Art for my Girls
I'm loving all of the subway art and typography that's so popular in the world of blogging right now. So I had this idea to make some art for my girls' room that showcased their names and special things about them. I originally created the art in my word processor, but then had troubles when I tried to convert it to a jpeg by copying it to my paint program. Then I came across this tutorial on how to use picnik, a free website to create printables. It took some time, but I finally came up with these:Anyway, I'm pretty excited about them and just got them ordered using these free credits I got by opening a free account on http://www.artscow.com/. I hope they turn out well!

Look at you, you creative girl! I love all the subway art popping up everywhere and this is such a unique and personal way to use it. I might have to copy you... :) I particularly like the nicknames and the "once a ponce a time" (hope I quoted that right!)

I love it. I' not sure if I could come up with that many words for each of my girls, so I'm impressed. You need to learn photoshop! You do cute things. You really do need to come visit me and help me!
