Welcome to Magic Marker Monday! If you haven’t heard about Magic Marker Monday yet, click here and then hurry right back…
Last week we started playing with instant paper mache mix and this week we finished up our project with a coat of paint.
Now if you will recall, I was expecting last week that this project would be finished off with black and white spots. For a number of persistent and relentless reasons. But as per usual, our soon-to-be seven-year-old threw me a curve-ball.
Meet “Rainbow Puppy”.
When asked the rationale for her color choices she lobbed a question back.
“Don’t the colors just make you happy to look at them, Mommy? Don’t they just make you wish we had a puppy?”
The girl is intransigent.
Nothing but puppies and rainbows around here, eh?
What has your little artist been up to this week? Link up and share!

Sounds like a great combination to me, although I am a little biased. So saying I’ve just been scraping paint of cupboards in an effort to get ready for my eldest daughter’s wedding at the weekend, so I’m less than creative at the moment.
Cheers
He’s very cute – much cuter than black and white spots!
As Barney says” Colors makes me happy!”
Great job! I love the colors!
