BEAUTIFUL!!! Did you do the tole painting on the rose sign too?? They both look wonderful....it is fun to give things new life! Great job Luvs!

Great Job on both pieces. I love the Roses sign on your block wall. DO you use patterns or freehand it. I can bearly draw a crooked line, little alone a straight one. I really like the little one you made with your cricut too. I painted a little wooden background for a sign to do with my cricut last night. I might get around to cutting some letters for it tonight. I wanted to try one like I saw in Michaels for Memorial Day. I have a lot of ideas, just seem to lack the energy to start them. Janet

Frou, I love both signs,
but the second one touched my heart.

Luvs this post brought a smile to my heart - for you.
Both signs are so lovely and what a perfect spot for the first one next to those beautiful roses.
I agree with Nana..your second one is very touching.
It's nice to see your creations again...they've been missed.

Beautiful, Luvs! And I am sure the visit will be a nice break for you! Enjoy!

It looks like you got your groove back for sure, love it. Your signs are lovely and I even love the block wall with the design at the top. Sometimes visitors are what we need to boost us in to gear.

Your signs are perfectly lovely.
I'm jealous that you have roses already. Mine are just thinking about coming out of hibernation.
I'd say your creativity is certainly blooming!
Glad you felt up to doing some of your lovely painting and cute signs.
Enjoy the visit.

TFS,
Candy

Sorry again Luvs. My kids would be laughing at me, because they were ALWAYS being called by the wrong name.
I hope you will continue with your wonderful work.

Beautiful roses, luvs!...the RL ones & the sign...your painting is always so good! And I love the 'bloomin' sign, too. Have fun w/your guests...that is always a good way to get motivated to get some things done! TFS! Jeanne S.

Luvs, both of your signs are so pretty. Your painted roses are always wonderful and glad you found time to use your cricut machine too.

I love your yellow roses in full bloom! Don't work to hard getting ready for your family but things are sure lookin' good. Hope you have a nice visit with your brother and SIL.

Luvs, I was REALLY happy to see this post. Its wonderful you were feeling a bit "crafty" again. Your rose sign looks brand new! The other sign is sweet. But your yellow roses...oh my! I'm totally green with envy you can grow such beauties.

hugs, Karen

Luvs, your roses are beautiful, both real and painted. I am glad you are feeling creative again. I know you will enjoy your visitors. - Marylee

Thanks ladies for all the words of encouragement. Yes, knowing company is coming really does cause us to get in gear and get some much needed things done, doesn't it? LOL

Repainting the sign was sure lots more fun than digging up a flowerbed and transplanting the excess plants out of it. Why I stuck little "airplane" plants in a bed with minature roses is beyond me--the roses were being crowded out so had to dig them all out! Whew I'm getting too old for all that physical labor! Also straightened the garage, washed windows, etc. Now just need to keep up with the dusting and vacuuming and I'm set. Oh, and make up a couple casseroles and some salads to have ready to go as needed. Punk, I don't know how you manage to work all those hours and still have all the company you do! You are "superwoman" for sure! ;o)
