Lunch Lady Land

Does anyone else remember that Adam Sandler skit for SNL where Chris Farley is the lunch lady and they sing the "Lunch Lady Land" song? It is one of our favorites! Every time Mike walked through and saw me working on this, he had to sing it!

Everybody knows Joy Tubb and about her wonderful food! She has Lunch Lady Catering and does box lunches which she delivers to you at work. My favorites are the croissants and chocolate covered strawberries! She also has her wedding/party catering business called Simply Joy Catering.

She wanted a couple of signs for the upcoming Civic Center craft show in chocolate, cream, and "Tiffany box" blue. She also requested a very clean, classic design.
Thanks, Joy, and good luck!

Our Halloween

Carter had a tough time deciding between Vince Young and Peyton Manning. In the end, Vince won out.
Lauren, however, never had a doubt. It has been Cinderella from the start!




Don't you just love Halloween?

Stars and Stripes

The new special education teacher at Bobby Ray, Mrs. Lisa Prater, ordered these two canvases for her classroom. I absolutely loved the color scheme she chose. Blues, aquas, and greens are colors I naturally lean to, so I really enjoyed doing these two. I have done several of the star canvases, but the little monogram on the striped one was new for me. They look fantastic in Lisa's room!

One From Way Back!

My iBook recently crashed and I did not have my photos backed up. Lesson learned! I have finally gotten it repaired and returned and everything was recovered. I am so happy to have it back.
This was one of the photos I thought I had lost. I did it a long time ago for Holly Elkins to give to her mom as a gift. Her mom is the secretary at Centertown school, so she wanted it in their colors of red, white, and black.
Anyway, I really liked how it turned out and I am so happy I now get to share it!

Laura's Big D

I have had several people ask me about the "Laura's Big D" that was on my orders to be filled list for a while. Well, here it is! A new customer, Laura Dunn, ordered this for her bedroom. She wanted it large enough to center over her bed. It is the biggest canvas I've done at 30"x40". It beat out the ladybug by a few inches!
My whole family enjoyed watching me do this one. It took up the entire kitchen table and I would have red paint all over me. When I wasn't working on it, it stood in the kitchen window. The sun would shine red through it! The memories my kids are going to have:)!
