Family Silhouette

You may remember I made a family silhouette a couple years ago and framed it for my baby's room and also used it to make some family t-shirts.

 Well, I made an updated version.  I think I may do the family t-shirts again.  Or maybe something else.  I just like it. :)

Family Shirts

We are going on a family trip in the near future and on that trip we are going to an amusement park.  It should be a lot of fun.  But I'll tell you what's not fun, last time we went to an amusement park we lost one of our kids.  It was one of the absolutely most terrifying experiences of my life.  Luckily we found him and all was well in the end, but I would do just about anything to prevent that from happening again.  You can bet I will be keeping a close eye on my kids.  And to help with that I made us all matching shirts.  Each one is a different bright color all with matching family silhouettes on the back.  Bright color = easier to spot, same image = people know they belong to us.  I made the family silhouette here.  And for more about the method I used to paint the shirts see this post.

Today I made this family silhouette to put in Thayne's room.

I looked at various silhouette images online and then combined, altered and adapted them to fit my idea for our family. Then I printed it out, taped it onto a piece of scrapbook paper and put it in a frame. I'm not crazy about the frame, but it was one that we had on hand. Overall, I really like it. Can you believe I almost have three kids?!
