Colorful Initial Art

Hello!  Sorry for being a little MIA... my munchkin was on spring break all week, which has been good & bad.  It made my day a little less hectic {since I didn't have to be a taxi all day} but it also got our routine all out of wack!  

Since we were home most of the week,  I ended up spending a lot of time working on random projects around the house and trying to keep my {stir crazy} kids entertained.  So sadly my blog took a back seat... but I'm back!

Last week I posted a bunch of really cute and easy Pintastic painting crafts - for the kids.  Since my munchkin comes home with paintings every day from school, I thought this would be the perfect activity for her.  As soon as I told her we were painting, she was ECSTATIC!!  She couldn't wait to start.

First we got the paints out {old egg dying cups are perfect for this} and start laying the masking tape down.  
First was the "M"

Then we added a few diagonal lines and "stars"

Time to start painting!

I got this gigantic clipboard years ago and since we don't have an easel, this works out perfectly!

"Mommy, I'm done"

Let it dry {you can use a blow dryer to speed up the process}

 Once it's dry, carefully peel the masking tape off

By the time it dried, my munchkin was already sleeping, so she didn't see how it turned out, until the next morning...

She LOVED it!

I think that smile says is all :)

"Look momma, it's an "M", just like Madison and just like Momma.  It's perfect!"

HAPPY CRAFTING!
