Hello and Happy day to you!
In this lesson, we're drawing and coloring on a paper bag! Yippee! This is so fun to do for holidays, birthdays, and everything in between! This takes gift giving to a whole new level where you can customize everyone's gift!
For this bag, I'm drawing (with Faber Castell marker) and painting (with Prima Marketing watercolors) a girl based on Isaiah 9:2!
Have fun coming up with bag designs! You can be a fashion designer for bags! Draw girls, cakes, flowers, hearts, verses, and more on these paper bags!
Love to you!
Today I'm teaching you one of the most important lessons I've learned in art: giving yourself a permission slip!!
Permission to be wonky. Permission to have fun today. Permission to live colorfully.
What will your permission slip say?
Go to my Facebook page on Wednesdays at 11 am CST to watch Wonky Wednesdays LIVE!
Yippee! This is the FINAL part to our colorful paper house! We're adding the colors with watercolor and adding some wonky!
Get out your watercolors and paint your "house of dreams"! You can use colors similar to mine, or use your favorites! It will be a reflection of your hopes, prayers, and dreams!
It's Fun Friday! And we are continuing in our paper house of dreams creation!! This can be a symbol for us--our very own house of dreams! I was inspired by the book, Anne's House of Dreams! Today, we're creating around the question "What is the password to the front door of your house of dreams?". Following the breadcrumbs of what God was showing me, I found the secret password!
In Psalm 100 (MSG), it says,
āOn your feet nowāapplaudĀ God!
Ā Ā Ā Ā Bring a gift of laughter,
Ā Ā Ā Ā sing yourselves into his presence.
Know this:Ā GodĀ is God, and God,Ā God.
Ā Ā Ā Ā He made us; we didnāt make him.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Weāre his people, his well-tended sheep.
Ā Enter with the password: āThank you!ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Make yourselves at home, talking praise.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Thank him. Worship him.
ForĀ GodĀ is sheer beauty,
Ā Ā Ā Ā all-generous in love,
Ā Ā Ā Ā loyal always and ever.ā
So let's start adding this magical-ness to our house! Write out a banner that says "House of dreams", cut it out, and tape it on the top of the house! For over the door...
Happy Fun Friday! We are continuing our lesson from last week, and adding elements to our paper cut out house! If you missed that lesson, you can find itĀ HERE.
So get out your markers, pencils, pens, crayons, whatever you'd like to create with, and fill your paper house with love! :) As we add fun things to this house, let us remember we live for the God who made magnolias!
And we create these playful cutout houses to add fun into our days. Like Einstein said, "Play is the highest form of research."
Start with your cut out house ready to go from Part 1. On a separate piece of paper, draw your elements. I'm drawing a girls to put in the windows. I have the house right next to my paper so I can kind of see what size they should be. *You could also measure the space of the window if you want to be exact, but remember to keep it wonky!*
I sketched out an easel with a "painting" ofĀ a flower on it to put in the top window. As you fill in the windows, you can start to think of more thing...
Join me for Fun Friday!
Today we're creating a paper house!! Embrace the play in life and create a house around the verse, āGod you smiled on your good earth! You brought good times back to Jacob.ā Psalm 85
Get a piece of paper, a glue stick or some tape ready. With a magic marker, I'm drawing the shape of a house, and of course, adding in the door and windows!Ā
Now get your scissors out, and cut a line down the center of the window and two slits on the top and bottom so they fold out.Ā
For the door, leave the left side in tact so you can open and close it! Add some tape to the back and tape it to another piece of paper, so you can't see through the windows--Next week, we'll draw fun things in the windows!
Here's a view of the other house I made!
Happy Day!
