It’s time for Back to School!

Posted in Sketch It's by Lissa on the September 3rd, 2007

I’m incredulous that my kiddos are returning (or leaving for) school and summer is done. Pools are closing (no no no!!!) and the parks will soon long for the sounds of kids.

This new sketch is dedicated to all the babies we’re missing while they return to school…


Kim…

This one was inspired by Kim. She’s my son’s girlfriend and is just about one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. With luck, these two will make it four years and beyond. No matter what, I hope Kim’s dreams come true.

Dedicated to Kim. (Featuring papers by Fancy Pants - Kewl line.)




Inspired by my camera

I’ve been wandering around lately with my camera in hand constantly it seems and altering photos to my liking. So today, our sketch was inspired by the back of my camera, simplified. I love being inspired by the simplest of things… (and no, my camera is not red. Red is just how I’m feeling today.)

Sunny Day

Today has become a beautiful day though very humid. I love the sun shining between the branches on the trees and the pinks, fuschia’s and white’s showing on the Crepe Myrtles all around. Definitely a great day to be inspired…

The air is sticky..

and man is it hot! Decided once I got the View out today to take a bit of a break and try to enjoy some outdoor time with my little guy… that lasted about 5 seconds (and I’m being generous…).

Instead I came inside and watched my little guy and my middle guy play video games. Taylor wasn’t feeling well (just bad bad allergies) and Dalton was more than happy to have him to hang out with today. (Can I tell ya how much I’m gonna miss him when he leaves for school?)

So, here’s a sketch I finished up today and will hopefully have more tomorrow.

Enjoy!

Today I’m thinking about water…

I love water. Today, hot and muggy, is a great day for water play. That’s just what happened! Our little guy was invited to a water birthday party and they soaked each other and all the grown ups too with tons of water! Big water guns were the party favors and this was what it inspired.

Love letters…

Posted in Sketch It's by Lissa on the July 19th, 2007

Inspired by all the romantics in the world who keep their old love letters in a bundle only to be found and read one day when you need a smile. Edges are not so edgy but worn and yellow, ribbons are faded and you can tell these photos or letters have been looked at and read, time and time again…
