A snow day

Snowed in here ...for the day ...so i thought I'd take some of my creations out for photos...like these cute little clip on valentines day honeycomb hearts.. and some of my heart boxes I created for my etsy shop.

So pretty..I just love valentines day ..and i love creating..I could make so many many of these..

I love the floppy flower on this one...so pretty.

Thinking of you...

It has been so long scince I have posted...I have just been soooooo busy !! Even busy lately for creating..however I did manage to make some time today to create a few valentine boxes for my little shop...







I just love valentines day ..such a pretty holiday ..with flowers and glittered hearts ..and such..I have fallen in love with these cute little honeycomb hearts with there scalloped edges.....cute for cupcakes and for crafting.....

Happy Birthday to me!!

There will be lots of cake today and maybe some glitter I hope...I got a chocolate cake with whip cream frosting , have you ever tried it? it's yummy!

And some flowers for me becuse I love them so and always have and peonies are my favorite of all....Just don't ask how old I am ... he!he!

Something pretty...

Here is the lampshade I created for the newest issue of somerset Home ..I decided to add it to my shop..it is packed full of vintage ribbon and trims and tied there with two old millinery flowers..the old wire lampshade is just as sweet as can be..and a pretty aqua knit stocking..is this perfect for christmas or what?? I love the hanging pom poms...

And you can also find these lovely angels I added to my shop as well ..the angel images are on both sides

And last but not least ..here is what I made fo sew Somerset which I also added to my little shop... this is extremely pretty ..I just love it...I finally feel like I got something done today??? How about you???

A little Inspiration...

A little inspiration can be found in this pile of clippings from a few years worth of magazines I had decided to tear out my favorites and make one inspiration book .. There all still loose clippings and pages tucked into a binder....I have been working on some cute little Christmas pretties to show soon... I'm feeling a little late this year when usually i am working on Christmas as early as July but better late than ever...

Check out this fabulous issue of Sew Somerset ...You can see sneek peaks inside at stampington.com ... I created something really pretty for this issue ..out of vintage french labels and old ephemera with stitches sewn about ...Theres just something about sewn paper that I just love ....

And I've been on the road a bit this winter .And as you can see we don't go anywhere with out my favorite Starbucks Christmas blend...I love it and usually buy enough of it to last me till March or so.. and what is it about there red cups that really get you in the Christmas spirit???

Anywho...... I look foward to posting my glittery little churches next time... I just love all that sparkles and anything loaded with glitter...
