.....time flies!!!! I must have too much on my plate or I am really, really slow compared to others because I don't feel like I accomplish as much as other scrappers/crafters. But, I made it here today for a little catch up.
So, in my last post I promised a giveaway. Amy Duff you win the scrapping goodies! Please email me with your mailing address and I'll work on getting that off to you. Thanks to everyone else for the nice comments... you all are so kind.
Anybody in the mood for spring? Me too! It's been a long winter so I made these pinwheels for the Glue Arts blog using my Sizzex Big Shot machine. The pinwheels are a die cut also from Sizzex as are the flowers in the centers. These were posted last week to the blog if you want to see some close ups and get the supply list and instructions.
The solid colors are Glue Arts "Accent-It-All" vinyl and the papers are from BasicGrey. They add the perfect fun little boost of color for spring.
Another Glue Arts blog project using the "Accent-It-All" vinyl. This time I cut bunnies from the white vinyl and also made a ruffley trim with it. There will be a post soon with the supplies and instructions included.
It was fun to add some stitching to my handmade fabric flowers. I love to do hand stitching and wish that I had more time to do it. It's one of those things that seem more likely to be a treasure to someone some day because fabric and stitching lasts almost forever and is timeless.
So that is my quick post for today. I am off to edit some more photos of a happy engaged couple. I love taking photos of people in love.
Oh, and I recently took some sweet baby photos too.....
Lucky me!
Thanks for stopping by. I am going to do a surprise giveaway too for this post. Do you like surprises? :-) Here's a hint..... it will be something that I made. So take your chances and comment here to get your name into the drawing. On my next visit I will let you know the winner is! See you then.

Those pinwheels reminds me when I was a little girl and I was going with my parents at fairs and every time I had to buy a pinwheel, I was fascinated when I saw other kids playing with them. Your little kid is so adorable, it's like a porcelain doll, so fragile.:D

I was wondering if you could send me the link to the christmas house templates you found in Victoria magazine. I'm having the hardest time finding them :( thank you so much for your time.
