INspiration

Earlier in the year, I was looking for some material to make my own wrap to use to carry my daughter.  I found this gorgeous fabric with pinks, chocolate brown and taupe!  Love at first sight!  Later it became the inspiration for this card.

This fabric just makes me feel all girly and yet sophisticated!  I am now thinking of making a little jumper for her out of this same fabric. Hmmm...now to find the time!

Getting My Feet Wet.....

Today is the first step into a new direction.  I wanted to keep a running record of all the creative things that I am doing.  I have been inspired by so many women who have the gift of crafting.  To them, I say thank you!

This past weekend I participated in my first "craft" show.  It was a Holiday Shop at my daughter's school.  I was so terrified of actually sitting in front of people with my work on display.  I felt totally exposed but....I did it!!  Here are few pictures.....


The pictures of the Snowman Hershey Bars, the Christmas Pencil Packs and the Candy Tins are all inspired by Kerry at http://www.kerryspapercrafts.com/.  She is amazing and has some awesome videos to boot!!

These candy tins are gifts that are being given to couples along with wine glasses and a bottle of wine for Christmas gifts!

My daughters LOVES LOVES these!  I had to keep telling her that they were to be given to her classmates for Christmas!  Maybe Santa will bring some for her stocking......

These cards were made to be attached to presents.  I love making these mini cards.

These are my Christmas cards for this year!  I had planned to use this style last year but when I found out we were adding another little one to our family, I got distracted and they were never made.  But now we have another beautiful daughter and this time they go out this week!

I hope that you are further inspired to be your creative best as I am everyday!
