Twin Murals

Hello Peeps!
I'm making a few spot murals for a couple of adorable twins. They each have their own rooms; Hallie's is pink and Paige's is purple. I got the chance to babysit them and their little brother, watch Ponyo with them and take a look at their room set up. I took down the colors, shapes and characters on their bedspreads so that the final paintings would complement them. These are my drawings and color plans for each room.

Hallie's Room


Paige's Room

Peace,

Fully Moved In!

Now I only have one blog! Yeah!

For all of you that had not idea this thing called "Catholic Colors" was happening let me just fill you in that indeed I had two blogs my art blog and my chatty, rambling blog called "Catholic Colors". I had a fun time moving all my posts from that site as well as my domain to make things in the end much easier for myself. This is now officially:

http://www.catholiccolors.com

Where I post my art, my writing and stuffs. I still have to fill out the "Gallery" page but that will be up soon. 

To celebrate I will send you to VirtuousPla.net where I contribute a piece of writing or art once a month.
My new post Can Christians NOT Be Religious? at VirtuousPla.net

Jubileee!

Merging of Ma Blogs

Hey Guys, just letting you know that if this blog looks ugly and weird for the next few weeks it's because I'm reorganizing my bloggy blogs and I want the finished result to be really user friendly and purty.

7 Quick Takes Friday (vol.6)



-1-
If someone had told me 5 years ago that I'd be going to daily Mass I would have said. "Pff, only old ladies do that and there's no way I'm going to be uncool." And then I'd avoid whoever said that like crazy.


-2-
If someone had told me 5 years ago that my most cherished time would be with my awesome Priest friend on Skype and with my best girly praying novenas, I would have cried at the idea of being such a weirdo.


-3-
If someone had told me 5 years ago that I'd be speaking to fellow Christians on how Jesus has transformed my life I would have offered myself up for martyrdom rather than speak in public.


-4-
If someone had told me 5 years ago that'd I'd take up a love of theology books equal to my love of fairytale novels I would have been like "Hmm, do you have any idea how much I love my fairytale books?"


-5-
If someone had told me five years ago that St. Francis de Sales, St. Therese of Lisieux, G.K Chesterton, J.R.R Tolkien, C.S Lewis, and Scott Hahn would be great comforts during my sorrows, I would have been only a little disturbed. "Who?" 


-6-
If someone had told me 5 years ago that I'd be blogging about my faith I would have said, "What's a blog?"


-7-
It was about 6-5 years ago when I stopped just skimming on the surface of God's almighty love. I decided to take a dive in because I was drowning. And then I kept swimming deeper and deeper, sometimes against the current, sometimes leisurely but I found that there is never a bottom. I found that I am either swimming continually down into the depths of love or I beginning to float up toward the surface again. I've never regretted a minute of it no matter what the suffering has been. He has always been present no matter what I've done or what I fear. He is always there waiting for me to go deeper. My conversion is continuous, daily. Everyday I have to choose to say "Yes!" to God.

Squeeeee! Is my new favorite thing to write when I'm full of girlish delight.

SQUEEEEE!



And for everyones info I'm just giving y'all a head up that I'll be consolidating Catholic Colors and My Art Blog into one so that I don't have to do double posts and keep two blogs up. I donts got the times. 

Con Amor, Fabi
