Mom's Birthday Gift!

Today is my mommas 49th birthday!!! I called her bright and early....ok more like 9:00 when I rolled out of bed to wish her a Happy Birthday!! She was happy to hear from me. I told her that we were all coming over and bringing supper and cake. After I got off the phone I thought shoot I don't have a gift for her yet :S

I got up and went to the craft room and started searching for what I could make for her. Then I remembered a pin from pinterest that I had seen on how to make a fun painting. So I got all the stuff and started.

You need a canvas (Any size will work) Paint in as many colors as you want, a paper plate, round sponge brushes, Black or brown paint pen that is used to draw branches, and spray paint in any color for your background color.

Once you got all your supplies ready then get started. I chose not to paint my background because it is going in a white room. I just drew random branches on the page. (I can not believe how great of an artist I am)

Then after you draw in your branches start adding the color dots! You can add as many or as few as you like just keep going until it looks just right. I am very happy how it turned out!!

So after supper we opened gifts and my mom was very happy to see the painting. She is planning on painting the living room in the upcoming weeks so she was excited to have some new artwork to hang on the wall.

I am so glad Mom had a great birthday. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and check out my blog!!
