Exhausted & a Free Candy Cane Sticker Download

Monday, September 13th, 2010

Well, it’s a few weeks into September and we are still recuperating from all the weddings and showers we attended during the Summer. There were a total of 6 weddings (and the accompanying showers and family dinners) and 4 baby showers that we attended over the course of 8 weeks.

Oy! My feet are aching from constantly being in heels every weekend. LOL

I’m glad it’s a much slower wedding/shower season these coming months. My body and bank account cannot take it.

Candy Cane Bark Recipe & Sticker Download from Penny People Designs

At any rate, I’m going to be more dedicated to blogging and find some fun stuff on the web to share with you all.

Here’s the first one: Candy Cane Sticker Sheet Download from Penny People Designs

Yes, I know it is only September but it’s best to start on your holiday gifts sooner than later. Well, for me anyways I like to start early because it really stresses me out fighting the crowds at malls or searching for deals online.

 I like the month of December to be a month of coasting (read between the lines – I just want to enjoy the parties and food that comes along with celebrating the holiday season ;) – Yup! I’m a foodie and I’d rather be eating than shopping in December!)

So making Candy Cane Bark maybe shouldn’t start so early (wait another 8 weeks or so) but you can use the sticker sheet for other craft projects in the meantime I’m sure!

Thanks Penny People Designs!

So am I the only one thinking up the holidays already in September? What do you have on your project list these coming weeks?

Free vintage images from The Graphics Fairy

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

It’s no secret. I like alot of vintage stuff. From furniture, jewelry, and most importantly – stationary!!

Imagine my delight when I was searching online one day to find FREE vintage images. Yes, free! Not a CD that you have to pay for.

The Graphics Fairy

The Graphics Fairy – I heart you. You really are a fairy. XOXO! I have so many images saved but not sure what I will do with them. Scrapbook? Make some gift tags? Journal covers?

Hope you enjoy searching her blog as much as I do – I can spend hours looking! It’s perfect for anyone who loves paper crafts. WOOHOO.

FREEBIE: Elementary Valentine’s Day Projects

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Oops. It’s been a long time since our last post hasn’t it?

Simple Valentines Day Cards from Alpha Mom

Simple Valentine's Day Cards from Alpha Mom

With February 14 coming up soon, we found some projects over at Alpha Mom that hopefully make you remember what Valentine’s Day was like way back when (ok, maybe the way back applies only to us)

Ohhhh… the memories. I remember making hundreds of those basket weave hearts. I don’t remember who I gave them to though. HA.

Happy Valentine’s Day in advance everyone. Hope you all have a lovely lovely day. Can’t believe it’s a little over 2 weeks away. Eek!

Better get started on those baskets. I’ll be giving them to my almost 2 year old daughter who probably has no clue what is going on. :) Ah well. It’s the thought that counts, right?
