Valentine Treat


Just a little treat I created for Valentine's Day.

What I did:
I create the template for the front and back so that I could cut it out on my Cricut. It's the first time I ever did that and was it ever fun! Then I put it together using a rectangular strip of paper scored and cut to make a little basket about 1/5 inches wide. I hand cut the designer paper front panel (there's also another one on the back).

I had the crochet flower....something I made last weekend. I added the brad and leaf, attaching it to the front with strong adhesive. Finished it up with the little strip of ribbon at the top and popped in a bag of chocolates!

Warm Little Sweetness

I must admit that I have become quite fond of making little bitty sweaters.   It all started on a recent trek to India traveling for business. I needed to carry just enough yarn to keep my busy bee hands occupied during the evenings in my hotel room. There are just so many hats a person can make, right?  Anyway, having limited quantities of yarn, I decided to give a small sweater a go.  This is the first one I created. I had just the perfect little buttons to add! (It really is amazing what one might find in their cosmetic bag) I love it.  This sweater is also featured on the Pinque Peacock blog   since I used her buttons.  (Go visit and see the buttons up close) This makes the sweater a really one of a kind project! This next one is perfect for a little preemie.  It's so tiny, but features a great big snowflake! Close up of the snowflake…. I also sewed on one of the StampinUp! Frosted Finishes Embellishments.  I think it finished it off nice

Precious Boy

A quiet, misty morning walk in late March 2012. This little precious boy puts a smile on my face every time I look at him. I mean, really, who wouldn't smile like there's no tomorrow at this little guy?  I love him.  Every. Little. Thing. He almost (ALMOST) competes with my husband. My sweet husband with a similar expression.  What do YOU think?
