What's up lately...

I had a fabulous Valentine's this year!

My very 1st paperdoll (don't laugh!)

We had a blast at our Friday Night Club...the

theme was "Cocktails & Jammies"!! And yes,

we all wore tiaras of course ;)

Wonderful books I picked up at the thrift store.

Check out that journal...the paper in it is handmade

and so soft I don't even know if I can make myself

write on it!!

Valentine Blog Party

It's time for a Valentine's Party!

Cute little love birds from a box of chocolates!

The "Love Letters" book below is one of my favorite gifts from

my dh. I LOVE it and wanted to share someof the pages with you.

This is the letter inside...an actual love letter written in 1707!!

And, now for some pretty downloads for you:

And, what's a party without music?!!

And of course, one of my most favorite Valentine's Day treats is

desserts and a little champagne!

My beautiful roses....they are blooming so nicely!

Pop on over to Kathryn's blog to look at more Valentine's Soul Journal

(sorry I didn't have time to make a page...I will tomorrow and post it later :)

My Valentine's

SO...since my child is still sick - I put myself to work
on some sweet valentines for my co-workers. First, I
had to find the 'perfect' buttons, so I completely got
distracted looking (okay...and obsessing) over the buttons!

Then, I laid out my materials and the little ballerina
had to watch...

I had to take a picture of this because it reminds me

of that show on HGTV where the lady gets a color

pallette of all these different items...it always looks

so neat!

Yaay...flowers are together and glued on the cards.

Time to write my little note inside.

And, now they are all ready!!

I Love You in many languages

Just playing around with some incredibly beautiful

backgrounds from Playing with Brushes...see them here:

Valentine's Journal

I made this Valentine's albumn for a friend at work to give to
her girlfriend for her birthday. I worked so hard on this...I hope
they both like it! My camera takes sucky pictures though.

That's all for now!

Art-eZine

I am so excited!! My ATC is actually on the home page of an art group that I belong to...here it is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/artezinecafe/ . For some people this is nothing, but I'm a total dork and think it's too cool to be amidst all of these awesome artists.
Another reason to be excited...my muse finally returned. It's about darn time!! So, I'm working on stuff and will show it later.

A mini creation

I've been having some fun with needle and thread. It's

relaxing to do needlework, you can do it anywhere and it

hardly takes up any space. It's not done yet...I'm not sure

what it will be yet! Have a relaxing Sunday...
