Hello and welcome...

to "art on the fridge." The little blog where we archive the cute things we're excited about making and the fun times we have as sisters, artists, and friends. We get together and make stuff. And while we think the stuff we make is pretty nifty, we think that the work of our Heavenly Father is the most breath-taking and wonder-filled and anything we could create is like a little kid's art on the fridge in comparison. We are Erika and Jamie.

Meet Jamie. She loves paper and stickers and stuff.

Her creative hero:
