Finger Puppets

Finger puppets my mom made for the kids for their Easter baskets this year- I think I like the bunny the best! A little felt, a blanket stitch, and some embroidery... so cute!

Beaded Easter Eggs

So here's my Easter Egg project this year... beaded eggs. A great way to use up all my seed beads (how do I always end up with a million seed beads? they're addictive.)

Next year I want to try these Woolly Eggs. I've never done any felting, but I've always wanted to try it. Thanks for the heads up, Court!

Pop-up card

Another card...I liked the way the cake came out on the front. Good thing Melissa is so young- just enough room for all the candles inside!

birthday card w/ earings

Birthday card for my friend, Jennie. I thought chandelier earrings deserved a chandelier card. I got to use my WigJig to make the earrings- it was fun, I haven't pulled it out in a long time.

dessert night

Thursday is free dessert night at the coffee shop. My mom usually makes something, but I had time this week so I made Valentine cupcakes-red velvet cake, cream cheese frosting and white chocolate piped hearts. Yum!

cool jewelry

I ran across this jewelry designer while looking for images and fonts for Matt's new tatoo. I love the combo of modern metal and organic wood. The designer is Amy Bengston and you can find the rest of her line here.

Delia's new dress

I finally finished off this dress I made for Delia. You can't tell from the photos, but the fabric is a baby-whale corduroy- it is so cute! I'm thinking of making a dress out of it for Melissa (one of my dolls I had growing up that now lives in Delia's room), too.
