12 – E, M, Ellie & Emma . . .

So, that number is going to seem like a step back … it is. I was waiting to start on number 12 because it was a military family in the process of moving back to the states!! We all agreed that it would be nice if they were shipped only once.

This was Ethan’s original painting. Although I say “original,” the canvas itself never changed – only a small detail.

Seriously, I try to keep it all together. But when someone says anything about October, all I can think of is the boys’ birthday – October 19th – one of the most important days of the year. hahah!! I’m sure you have guessed it by now …… WRONG DATE was painted on the canvas!!!

So, clearly I’m a dork … but at least I could repair that little mess up. oops. More stripes were added as well.

I stayed focused on Max’s painting – the date is correct on this one.

This design {dubbed the “Stella” since that was the first name on the original one} has got to be the most popular design I paint when it comes to requests.

My goal was to coordinate this next canvas to Emma’s painting above since both girls share a room but currently with different bedding.

And a little close up …

And as a friendly reminder …. Thursday, August 2nd is the big day! At 8 pm central time, the limited edition Christmas 2012 canvases will be available – till they sell out! Facebook only!!
