Art Man

J wanted to design his own birthday invitations this year. This was a real stretch for mom. I have an obsession with paper...well, stationery. I was looking for the most adorable "art" party invitations I could possibly find online when he shared this news with me. One look at his face, and I new it was a losing battle. He was going to create the most adorable invitation all on his own.

He began by drawing separate invitations for each of his friends. Finally we were able to convince him that drawing it once really well would suffice. We could scan his picture on to the computer and make as many invitations as we might need. We mentioned this idea to his art teacher, Mr. Joe. He agreed to help J perfect his design. They produced this "art man." He was created with as many art supplies as they could squeeze into the picture.

Mom couldn't be more proud!
