Hello Dear Bloggy Friends!
Just thought I would drop in for a sec. and give a little update.
A few things I am excited about:
1. I am participating in my VERY FIRST SWAP! YEAH for ME! Jenny is hosting a "Bits and Pieces" Collage Swap...creating a collage out of small bits and pieces of "what's left over" or small tiny bits of goodness you love! If you haven't read her blog or seen her items...YOU MUST! She is such a talented artist with all things delicious on her mind! Click here to read her blog!
What a Fabulous idea! AND~I am partnered with MISS FABULOUS JENNY HERSELF! How VERY LUCKY am I??? (Please, Don't kill me! :0) )
Here is a photo of Jenny's first collage...
so you get the idea.
So, I am getting started on my little creation, made just for Jenny... I can't wait! I'll post some sneak peek photos upon completion...wish me much luck on my first swap!
2. The kids and I spent 2 hours today making Father's Day Cards for Jeff...we had so much fun! The kids designed the cards themselves and they came out sooo cute!
Even Ben, (4 years old) designed his own card...TOO CUTE and VERY PARTICULAR! :0)
Emma's was very "over the top" just like herself!
And, Gracie's was simple and sincere...just like her...the words inside are what mattered the most. 
Of course, Mommy did help with the glue and printing the pics, but mostly the kids did the rest!
And finally #3. I made some really cute kits for the shop today, I love how they turned out...
I wanted something a bit on the smaller side, simple and more affordable for the shop. I tend to "over do" things sometimes, so I had to consciously tell myself..."Less is More, Less is More".
I think they turned out quite nicely. I used Vintage Sheet Music, Vintage Peachy/Pink Striped Wallpaper, Vintage buttons, Pretty papers, a Vintage Sticker, Vintage Cream Lace on a PINK Clothespin and the VERY VERY BEST Baby Pink Seam Binding (which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!) Cute eh?
Well, that's all for now dear friends. I'm off to make some dinner and then later sneak off to the craft store...shhh! :0)
