A place to buy handmade cards and paper products infused with culture
I don’t know what it is, if it is from my childhood ritual of writing New Year’s Resolutions or something else but the coming of a new year always gives me so much hope and wonder. Each year I always feel this magnetic energy to create lists. [Read more…]
Hello Everyone!
I hope all is well. I am sitting here thinking about going to get some Advil because my shoulders are now telling me that I am not made for shoveling snow. It always creeps up on me once I settle in and try to relax. The storm began last night and this morning it rained a little so let me tell you that shoveling today was a nightmare. It was wet and heavy. But I don’t want to leave it to turn to ice overnight so shoveling had to happen. Leao did the front walk and stairs and shoveled the back walk and cleaned the cars off. That is how we typically split it.
A shoveling nightmare!
Well now that I have finished, I am going to make some lunch and continue to work on my PL catch up. I have to order some photos to pick up tomorrow so I am editing them and uploading them. My goal is to work on it this week and complete the catch up process by week’s end. I will be sure to let you know if I achieve this rather lofty goal.
Have a blessed day!
Working on my Holiday cards.
Somehow Thanksgiving coming later really messed up my usual punctual delivery of our Christmas cards. We took the boys to take our family photo before Thanksgiving but I am just now sitting and writing them. I decided last year that instead of hand making all of my Christmas cards, we would sit for a photo and have photo cards made and make a handful of homemade cards.
So I am very happy to say that the first batch of photos will go out in the mail later today! That’s one thing off my checklist. I hope you are all checking things off your list!
Have a blessed day!
I put them on one of my display shelves in my craft room.
Hello Everyone! I am so excited to share my latest little project. I bought these 3D cut files during Silhouette’s big sale last week. It is a little winter village and they are sized to fit on to small ledges, windowsills or shelves. When I saw them, I just fell for the simple white theme and I knew exactly where I would put them. I placed them on my display shelf in my craft room where I usually display cards, pictures or my boy’s art work. But I decided I want to fill the shelves with winter decorations. So I am looking for more cute projects to display on the shelves.
I apologize now for all the pictures but I wanted to capture the different angles.
They fit so nice on the shelf.
The houses came with fences and trees. I debated whether to put another tree on the other end of the shelf. But as you can see below on the other end the cutest little bench that came with it as well.
Look at the cute little park bench.
These shelves are right at the top of the stairs and now I smile every time I pass this little village.
This is the view from the front.
I kept the houses white and I added little wreath embellishments that I also found on sale at the Silhouette store.
I will be sure to post pictures of some of the other projects I am working on once I complete them.
Have a blessed day!
