Twice as Nice

I feel so lucky. My life has changed so dramatically over the last few years. I never imagined I would be fortunate enough to spend my days creating -- really just playing. I love what I do so much, I never new life could be so fun and meaningful. My most recent work of art -- creating a beautiful canvas of these precious little twins, Miranda and Ivey. I found the most quaint little quote that seemed to say it all, "Sometimes miracles come in pairs."

For me the phrase, "Twice as Nice" has such a double meaning. Gratitude for the blessings in life...Life is so good!

You must have been a beautiful baby!

Well this little cutie can answer a definite YES! to that question.  I fell in love with this photo the minute I saw it.  I did several versions but this one is my favorite...  I thought the sentimental quote (author unknown) enhanced the beautiful portrait taken by gifted photographer, Vikki Dinh (www.vikkidinhphotography.com).

Graduation Time

It's that time of the year again when all the graduating students get to celebrate their accomplishments. I love this time of year because it represents hope and dreams and aspiration. My most recent canvas project was enhancing a high school senior's graduation picture -- an amazing picture taken by a very talented photographer Vikki Dinh (www.vikkidinhphotography.com) of her beautiful niece, Amber. I love the way it turned out! Congrats and best wishes Amber!

By the way, today is the last day to enter my Making History Giveaway -- a free $50 gift certificate towards a custom canvas.  To enter, go to Dang Gina Give-aways for all the details!  Good Luck!
