Spring Quilt

When you have a baby you get these tiny little receiving blankets that come in a pack of 4 or five. They are really cute, but as I mentioned tiny. Adelaide got some and we never used them when she was small enough. I loved the colors and patterns and thought "Hey those would make a cute quilt!" So a quilt I made and it turned out better then I thought it would. You all know that I'm not a quilter, but I really enjoyed this project and now Adelaide has a super cute Spring quilt.

I will hopefully be posting more scrapbook pages soon. I've been working on Adelaide's book and I'm in a great online class given by Kelly Purkey. She rocks so you should check her blog out. 
Happy creativity to all!

Scarfs

I've been making some fun neck scarves for Patina. I love how soft and comfy they are not to mention warm. Make sure you drop by and check things out.











Baby Book Layouts

I'm slowly putting together my little lady's baby book. Below are two pages that I put together the other day. The first one has a photo of her little feet. I love baby feet and pictures of them (not sure why). I wanted to keep it basic, clean and simple. I used cardstock, pattern paper to border the picture, made the ruffles out of a lace paper punch, fabric thickers and simple ribbon with a little bow.



In this layout I used cute pattern paper from Pebbles. It was so easy to keep this layout simple because of  the paper. I just cut around the big flowers and used them to secure the picture.
The adorable sticker says it all!

Arm Warmers

Thanks to some of Richard's coworkers I started making some arm warmers. I think they are turning out really fun and funky. I can't wait to make more!

Gavin and Amy Cox Signing Book

Two of my best friends tied the knot this month. As part of their wedding present I made their signing book. I had so much fun.
A lot of my inspiration came from my signing book (thanks Sarah).
Richard designed the invitations and I used his design for the little title box. It was a nice way to tie the invite in.
I love love love gathering ribbon and stapling it. I think it turns out so cute!





Aren't they so cute? This was my favorite picture. Of course the talented Gavin took their engagement pictures.
I used rub-ons on the actual pictures. It really plays up the photos.
I think I've found my calling. I really enjoyed making this. I would love to do more.
