more fun with paper

While I've had my paper crafting supplies out, I couldn't resist a few projects just for fun...

Tutorial for the bunnies here.

If only the weather would get on board with my springy crafting---it snowed here again last night. I'm so ready for it to be green!

the best best best news

So I've had a bit of exciting news (okay more than exciting--SO thrilled!) that I've been keeping a bit secret for the past few weeks. Now I'm ready to share with everybody that come September, me and my guy are going to be a family of 3!!!! I'm over the moon that we are going to have a little baby.

Of course I've already started making lots of baby things(how could I resist--everything is so sweet when made for a baby, the tininess of it all, oh goodness!) Many more posts on this subject, I most certainly promise.

But for now, I just want to enjoy every minute of being pregnant (as much as possible, it's not exactly comfortable, as I'm finding out) and keep looking forward to this precious little one joining our family.

I'm back

The last month seems to have just slipped by, hasn't it? In this unintended bit of a break from blogging I made a rather exciting ski trip to Europe and back. It seems that preparing for, traveling, and then getting back into the swing of things(and adjusted to the timezone) has left this space rather blank for a bit. I'm here to change that as I have some big news to share (soon, I promise). For now, I leave you with this...some snapshots from my trip and a peek at my newest quilting endeavor:

Oh! The snowy French countryside! and now my newest work in progress:

A Fresh Start

Full Disclosure: I've blogged before. In fact, you can see my former escapades in the blog-o-sphere here. So, why might you ask, am I making a fresh start here instead? Mainly because things have changed. I have a NEW site, a NEW branding, and a NEW plan of action for my creative business. Also, I sort of fell off the horse in regular blogging oh about a year ago---and sometimes it is just better to start over than to try and pick up where you left off when it seems as though anything and everything has happened in the year since. I feel like I'm ready to move forward with my business after taking time to step back, reflect, and work another job full time while I decided what the next step entailed. And it just so happens that right now is just the time for me to take the plunge and get back into my routine of maker--creator--blogger--designer--advertiser--accountant--shipping dept--and all the many other hats you wear as a business owner. I look forward to what this New Year will bring!
