Home is

Where my heart lives {amongst a polka dot sky }.

Well today was a fun day for me, summer vacation is almost over since it's always summer

 in Puerto Rico, I can not say summer is over...

I have been taking care of my daughter and two of her friends and I was looking for a cool project that we could do together.  So I decided on a piece of canvas they could do to decorate their room.  I started with a Donna Downey piece of printed canvas and an iron on tree.  I can happily say SHE introduced me to gelatos!!! They were a dream in my hand I could not get enough of those little chapstick shaped babies!!! Finally they arrived at my doorstep, a full set for me to enjoy and I have been happily playing ever since!

After that I drew a rustic house and my words got all wrapped up in a kite's string;)

they crossed my "t" and went down to lives, hugging the tree

I had a "Monet" moment, LOL, I was going for the impressinist movement with my artsy flowers in the fields!!!!  They look the part...

I just love I could paint a polka dot sky, for that I used the Art Grip Aquarelle # 143, using a dot mask

they matched the polka dot leaves in the tree perfectly!

after writing my words in pencil I used a PITT big brush marker in black and a red one

 for the ♥ word.

I used gesso and a stencil for the roof and the finger for the clouds

the words got filled with 2 different gelatos a metallic and a flat one, I can totally see the shine there

and loved it so much I framed it and hung it on my wall

It's such a cute summer cottage!

Now go over and play with Mou's challenge over at the Faber Castell blog
