an early Mother’s Day Gift

what a week of wonderful surprises this has been, just had to share this with you as well

from a scanned copy of a 4 x 6 inch photograph of our son Alex as a young boy, Contrado Imaging created this fantastic 12 x 16 inch printed canvas

*photos are all clickable for a closer view*

the original  photograph was taken on Thanksgiving in 1989 on our then annual trek to the mountains

that particular year we woke up to snow which was a big thrill for our boys and for us too as it was not the norm for November

in addition to the fine quality of the printed canvas, it is stretched over a really nice wooden frame…. the print wraps around the one inch deep sides too!

it’s personalized with Alex’  name on the back edge, ready to hang as is or we can use the picture hanger that was included with the canvas

imagine a piece of your artwork done up as a canvas print, there are lots of other items to choose from as well (bags, blankets, aprons, photo cubes, cushions, calendars, duvet covers and more) , all using digital photographs….be sure and visit here to check it out

another thing well worth mentioning about this company is their shipping!

VERY speedy and efficient… unbelievably quick!

there is a new category on my sidebar, scroll down for  GIFT IDEAS

I can listen to this song again and again
