the paper mama

July 29, 2010

I came across this lovely little blog called The Paper Mama this week. I’ve been on the hunt for sites that host photo contests. These contests have been so inspiring to me. I’ve gotten some great shots that I probably wouldn’t have otherwise taken. So the theme for the contest is absolute favorite and I LOVE this picture! I know I’ve posted it on my blog before but I had to share it again! If you love it

Welcome to the carnival!

July 16, 2010

We threw a carnival themed birthday party for your two year old over 4th of July weekend. I was so excited how well everything came together. I wish that I was better at planning ahead though. Most of the decorations were made the morning of the party. I was actually still sewing together the crape paper 5 minutes before we walked out the door. And to give myself a little credit I did start everything the week before. But I got stumped on what I wanted to make and my best ideals just seem to always come at the last minute. So I guess no matter how far ahead of time I start I’ll still be working up to the deadline! ;) I just love how the main table turned out!

I made all of the birthday hats from scrapbook paper.



I loved his little birthday hat!


I put white and yellow mini marshmallows on top of the cupcakes to look like popcorn.

Some of the little carnival accents are from the scrapbooking section at JoAnn’s.


I found the vintage looking clowns and balloons on Etsy.

The kids loved helping themselves to all of the candy!

All of the glass candy jars are from the dollar store. ;)

I’m sure you’ve seen this picture of my bulldog when she was a sweet little puppy. Well, she’s still a sweet but not so little. In fact she’s grown into quite the fat piggy, complete with snorting!

Iheartfaces is have a pets photo challenge this week and I knew right away this is what I wanted to enter!  Wish me luck!

Meet Sweetheart

June 24, 2010

Isn’t she a beauty?  The headband I mean…ok, the girl is pretty cute too!  That’s my niece, Dominique, modeling my new headband design.  I love how it turned out.  I’m totally feeling feathers and vintage designs lately.  I’ve also added another feathery headband tutorial to the shop, Greta.  She’s pretty glamorous too!

I sincerely hope that all of you beautiful, amazing, talented women had the mothers day that you deserve!  I personally think we should get a week long celebration. ;)

This is our first pic I’ve taken of my family all together.  It was a lot of work but I love how it turned out.  I actually planned on putting it on our xmas card but I changed my mind when I was designing it.  I can’t wait to do another one this summer.  Hopefully my skills will have improved by then. ;)
