Claudine Hellmuth
Claudine Hellmuth is a mixed media artist, very popular in the altered art circles!
I took a class from her last fall at the Art & Soul Retreat.
I was delighted to find at CHA in January, that Lazar StudioWerxs had produced a line of her backgrounds and POPPETS!
I couldn't wait to get my hands on them.
The minute the arrived, I went to work creating this layout of Spencer.
If you've read the post below (Breakfast fit for a Cousin) you would see that this kid LOVES to cook!
We're not talking Mac & Cheese here either.
He makes French Onion Soup, Steaks that are out of this world (due to his secret marinade), Angel Food Cake - from scratch and Snickerdoodles that no one can resist.
He did have an issue with the fat body - since he's 5'8" and very skinny. So, I may need to redo that so he likes the layout.
Claudine's work is definitely unique and awesome. Love what you did with this page using her artwork! Very cool.....and how impressive that Spencer is already such an awesome little Chef!

so cute!!!! I wasn't sure if I'd like them in sticker (or premade I should say) form but that's adorable. I think I need to find some for myself-quick. :)

OK, first off, can I adopt him for a while? He cooks STEAK? That is my #1 pregnancy craving. CAN NOT get enough. And if you won'tlet me take your son for a while, atleast let him come overand teach my 3 yr old son to do that. Hey-its not to early, he's almost 4! Anyway, I totally love the page

This is so cute! I just got Claudine's new book and I'm really loving it.
I have a son who loves to cook, too - it's great! :)

Just wanted to pop in and tell you I love reading your blog. Oh, and to say hi! How the heck are you, my friend. Hey, your banner looks somewhat like a wall I just painted on my daughter's bedroom wall. I am in the processing of redecorating it now. Off to sew some more;)
