After all the pink love last week, I had the pleasure of creating something blue and nautical for a sweet little boy we are preparing to welcome.
How lucky am I that one of my BFF’s had a grandson about six months ago and another BFF is having one within weeks of our granddaughter’s due date. Β Seems it will be one of the greatest joys in life to share motherhood and then grandmotherhood with life-long friends.
So yesterday was the “Ahoy It’s a Boy” shower, and I made a couple of watercolor paintings for this little guys’s nautical themed nursery.
I matted the 8×10 paintings with navy blue matting and framed them with white 11×14 frames.
It’s hard to take photos of paintings under glass without reflection and in good light, so these photos are a bit off in color, but I thought they turned out really cute, and I hope they will go well in this sweet little guys’s new room.
I thought it would be fun to make them into greeting cards too.
Can’t wait to meet you Baby Boy Griffith!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
