So I wasn't as crafty this Christmas but I did make some new things. Like these chocolate pops and almond balls. And some new cards

A GREAT CHRISTMAS!!! I got some great gifts from joe a knife set and a set of pots from dad. The best thing was spending time with family and friends.

I got an early Christmas present from my mom... I got a cricut!!!

This machine is awesome. It cuts really intricate designs that can add a lot and make my cards look more expensive. This fall card I made for a friend and I loved the pine cone cut out. So, I also made a birthday card. It's great because you can make each picture any size you want. My next project with it is Christmas cards.

New Job!

So it again has been a long time since my last entry but I keep getting caught up in new projects and I have a lack of internet access (which will hopefully be changing soon).

Since then, actually just yesturday, I got a new job at Potterybarn! I can't wait to start! So excited.

Projects I have been working on include helping out with Alexi's wedding (which was beautiful) and painting a mural on Aunt Judy's Sunday School room wall. I will be posting pics a soon as it's done. It's a lot of fun and would be happy to do it for anyone else looking for one. I've already been asked to do one in the Nursery as well! Hoping to get more done tomorrow and maybe post a pic or the progress.

Gideon's Gift

I got to see Gideon this past weekend and he is just so cute! Even though it was a bad morning (forgetting his present making our trip 45 minutes longer, tea filled shoes, and worst of all soapy coffee) it was definitly worth it. These are the paintings I did to match his bedroom set. My favorite is the giraffe.

Other Projects I've Been Working On

Mimi had her 6th Birthday and to celebrate she wanted a Tea Party. For it I made some really cute invitations with stamping and tea cups I cut out (I forgot to take a picture). I also painted her the sign and decorated for photo shoot of the girls all dressed up.

I've also been painting and working on other crafts.

I got three small canvases and painted these bird inspired paintings.

Almost Done

so I know I haven't been writing much but I have been working a lot on my place and also not having internet at home makes my internet time focused around bills and e-mails. But here are a few pictures of my place since last time.
