Wow - I've been a seriously bad blogger these past several months. I do have an excuse though! I was the director for a girls camp for my church so all of my creative time was spent planning and executing that. I have made some cards...but I have failed to photograph them. :( But - I did come across a few photos I snapped with my iPhone. They are horrible quality, but it's all I got right now, ha ha!

In the coming weeks I hope to have a lot more to share, so stay tuned.

Things I'm in Love with right now...

2009-09-22T22:36:00.000-07:00

I wanted to share a few things that I am diggin' lately...

the Clarisonic Plus is my new favorite skin care tool! This little tool is amazing and gets my face super clean! Think of it like an electric toothbrush for your face. My skin has never been softer, smoother, and even toned! I LOVE my clarisonic!

The Essie Fall Collection is super cute! The colors remind me of hunting, wool sweaters, and beanies. My favorite is the Angora Cardi. Such a fun color!

The Metric Fantasies album has been playing in my car stereo all month. I love Emily Haines voice and the chill indie feel that this band has.

My new Blowfish Shoobaloo Maryjane flats are sooooo cute and soooo comfy. You'll

spot me sporting them all season long! So cute for fall and great for running errands or wearing around the house. I think they're even cute enough to wear out to dinner :-)

Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin candle from Bath and Body Works is the perfect combination of fall scents. I've been burning this at my house ever since the Halloween decorations went up last week. Even though the weather is still warm here in Southern California, these fall scents remind me of the changing seasons.

I am loving my City Style Puff Sleeve Knit top from New York and Company. It is elegant, simple, and comfy! I love New York and Company for their polished styles and awesome coupons!

About a year ago I picked up a Green Room Eco binder from Target. I loved the fun modern print! This school year Green Room came out with some great new patterns, so I picked up a few more. I love using office supplies that have great style! Ha ha!

Have you tried the new Sharpie Retractable pen?! It is AWESOME! I always loved the Sharpie Pen...but sans cap makes it even better!

I know, I know...I have bee the world's WORST blogger lately! I have been in a creative slump, and have felt uninspired. I don't know what it was...maybe the hot weather??? Anyway...I think I am coming out of it :-) I recently made some new digital card for my photo card blog. Check them out here. I have some new product that I can't wait to use and a card swap coming up next week, so I have some things that I will be sharing very soon. For today, I wanted to share my most recent publication in Cards Magazine. This sympathy card I made was featured in the September 2009 Issue. So fun to see your work in an idea book! I'll be back soon with some new projects!

Hugs & Kisses

2009-08-28T12:29:00.001-07:00

Quilted Happy Birthday

2009-08-27T08:46:00.001-07:00

For this card I did a little "quilting". I used the packaging of the Cosmo Cricket Earth Love paper pack for the patterned paper squares and stitched them to a piece of felt. Kind of a fun technique!

Happy Halloween

2009-08-23T21:14:00.001-07:00

Diaper Cake

2009-08-19T12:15:00.001-07:00

So, this is my first attempt at making a diaper cake. I am bringing this as gift for a baby shower this evening. The process isn't hard, but it is kind of long.

You start by rolling up diapers and securing them with rubber bands. You then tie them around a bottle of lotion, or a baby bottle and build up. After you have completed the "cake" you can decorate with Ribbon, flowers, stuffed animals...or anything you want.

I think it turned out really cute!

All Occasion Cards

2009-08-13T18:49:00.000-07:00

In about a month I am teaching a card making class for a church event. I made these cards as samples...something simple, easy, and easy to explain.
