Snow will be here soon!

I was just thinking...Winter will be here soon and I never posted my flowers!

This was early spring...we put a lot in this year and they all got huge!!

Too bad I didn't pull the camera out again to show how much they have grown!!

Have a great weekend & thanks for popping in!!

I am finally back!!

Well...I finally have some time to sit and do a post!!

There are a lot of things to share but...I will do my fave first!!

This is my nephews baby shower!

It was at my place...but my mom (aka:nana) did mostly all of it!

She is super talented!

The theme was...

"Sock Monkeys"

My mum did so much work.

The favors are in the little bags to the left. They are magnets that I made with sock 

monkeys.

These are the favors.

 Mum even did candy jars!

Here is the sock monkey 'diaper bike' that I made.

I loved doing this one because it is so different from my usual bikes!!

And the "man" of the hour???  He was pooped out! What a party!

Love this little guy!

He is my "lil Nacho"

=)

Hope to have more for you soon!

It's been a crazy long time!!!

Summer has taken me away!!

I have been working on a home project that I will soon share with you all...

I can not miss this opportunity to share when I am here already!!

So.....the home project will have to come at another time.

This is Knox.  My lil' nacho!  I love him so much! 

Isn't he super cute!

Here is a card that I made for  when he was born!

We are having a shower this weekend so I will have to post a few more photos soon.

Well...I will have loads to share with you ASAP! So sorry for my absence!

Hope you keep popping in!

Have a great long weekend!

baaaaah!

Hi everyone!  Sorry it has been so long!  Summers are so busy!

But....

I have something that I think is super cute to share with you today!

It is a Thank EWE card for friends that had us over for a awesome supper!

I love the "wool"!!  hehehe

I did that by using liquid applique.  It is very cool stuff.

You put it on your project and then heat it up with the heat gun and POOF!!!  =)

Used some thick twine on the edge.

The little Thank EWE embellishment issomething I made by using 'shrinkadink' paper!  That is pretty neat stuff too!

Well...thanks for stopping in!

Put these in some challenges:

Pet Baskets

Hi again!

Thanks for popping by!

I wanted to show you a couple of pet baskets I have done for people.

They are pretty popular!

This first one was for a young girl's ferret.  His name was Spencer!

I did a lot of research to be sure i only got things

that a ferret would enjoy!

It is hard to see in the photo...but there is an awesome striped tent in there and a very fluffy striped bed to match!

While doing this one...I wanted a ferret!! 

haha!

I like to label and 'personalize' the goodies!

The next one was for two kittens. Jasmine & Meeka. So I doubled up on a lot of the items!  I included a mug for the 'HUMAN'  haha

The next photo is the kitten basket in the middle  and a chinchilla basket on the left and a hedgehog basket on the right!

Here is a close up of a goodie (rawhide) for the hedgehog!

Well...that was fun!!

I really enjoy doing these baskets for people.  Everyone loves their "pet"!!!

I have added this to..Free Pretty Things...

Take care and come again!!

Thank you Card!

Hi again!

I always like to have a few 

'Thank You'

cards on hand.

So I usually make a few at a time

so that if I go somewhere for dinner...

or if someone does something sweet...

I have one all ready to go!!

Here is one that I did a little

while ago.

Trying to use more Kraft Paper!

I did a matching envelope too.

This was a very simple one to do.

But I hear that less can be more!!

haha!
