Create a Keepsake

One day while posting photos of my glasses on Facebook, someone asked me if I could paint her belly cast. I think this is a great way to remember how you looked while holding your beautiful baby inside. I'm not sure if she made the cast herself or had someone help her, but I sanded it down, added a thin coat of plaster to smooth it out, painted a base coat and then began to paint.

She gave me an image to work with, and of course I tweaked it to make it my own. The finished image was a hit...she loves it! I'm so thankful that I can make someone else's day by doing something that comes easy to me. What a great gift God has giving me.

Let me know if there is anything I can paint for you. ;)
