Alden . . .

First off, I have to tell you guys that it is still gloomy and we've had zero sunshine in well over a week! Besides putting me in yuck kinda mood, it also kills what little picture taking skills I have! Ugh! Just bare with me and know that this one is rocking in her own right in person!

I do consider this one the female version of the "Manning" or the "Boone." I'm getting a ton of requests for the 'layered look.' And like I always say - I aim to please!


This painting goes to the sister who got these! I loved all the swatches and pictures and paint chips . . . loved them all that she sent me! This mother was awesome, because every time she saw something she liked from a painting that I would blog about, she would shoot me an email! I loved going through them all and writing down all the specifics she loved and creating her daughter's canvas from the notes {You can see my notes hanging - haha, there were alot over the past several months.}


The darker pink you see in the painted stripe {not stripe fabric} is actually the wall color.


The font really dresses this one up!


And did I tell you that this one is 16x40? Yeah, that is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And as promised - another sneaky peeky!
