Artistic Chore Chart

As a member of the Artistic Mother group, I made this simple chore chart for the sweeties as my interpretation of part of week one's assignment.

I waste so much time telling each lovely forgetful child to do the same things. (I'm positive I'm the only the mother with this problem...giggle) Now, I can just ask them if they've completed their chores. This will probably save me at least 15 minutes each day. Enough time to work on a project, right?


All the papers are from the new My Little Shoebox lines. Aren't they the cutest things ever? Those birds make my heart sing! And that car? Oh, that I could be so hip!



Can I just tell you how much I love making backgrounds? This one was made with a combination of Shimmerz Vibez, paints and oil pastels. I love how it turned out.

Have a great day!

xoxo
Bethany
