A New Look!

I have changed my blog banner, the old I loved but it felt too "fast" and I wanted a softer calmer feeling. I think it also shows that my blogging has taken a different turn than what I had originally invisioned. My blog has evolved into more than a place to show my craft, it has become a community of unique, creative, supportive lovely people. I am sharing much more that my craft only, I share a "me "that I didn't know before my blog, and the good news is that I like the "discovered me" and I must thank all of you for being part of that process. So hugs to all of you!

Yesterday I attended a Baby Shower and of course I was unsure of what type of gift I should bring, I'm in that in between stage of young motherhood and grandma hood. I vocalized my dilemma to Brenda, the girl who does my hair. She had a wonderful idea...A Sheep's Skin rug. What a perfect soft perfect little play place a new baby. (Actually I thought about keeping it for Big Baby Me it was soooooooo soft.) Well I did the right thing and gave to the expecting Mommy. Although I just couldn't give a gift without a handmade item. The new Mommy is part of my horse world and knows she is having a boy so...I altered one of my show blue ribbons with a BIG BLUE for BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY. I just wanted to share what I thought was a unique well received BABY GIFT.

ENJOY!

Lovely Morning

This morning while I was driving to the farm I could hardly see because of the fog. It didn't make me very happy but...once it started to clear I grabbed my camera and the fog became my friend. This captures my favorite time of the day when it comes to the horses. The farm is quiet the every day hustle hasn't started yet and the horses seem to know it. It's such a peaceful feeling.

I hope you have the opportunity today to feel such calmness.

Off to start creating...I have signed up for 3 new swaps (see sidebar) so I will be busy with narrowing down all the crazy ideas for the swaps. I better get started!

Enjoy Your Day!

A PAR-TEA!

Oh, Oh, Oh I am on a creating jag! I just love it when that happens...I usually have to have inspiration and thanks to a party I'm giving it's happening!

I'm giving a Party or I guess I'll call it a Tea. I ran into a girl friend the other night and we were sharing what projects we have been working on this summer and WALA I had an idea. We should have a SHOW AND TELL LUNCHEON. So I was off and running with a theme (usually a dangerous thing since I tend to go overboard). Hummmmmm...I've got it...
a CREA-I-TIV-I-TEA! My Mom and I are hosting 16 talented, lovely ladies on September 4.

I just can't wait ...this is the inside of the invite.
I have lots of ideas for the party and since you can't attend (Oh I wish you all could attend) I'll be sharing ideas and stuff with you here so stop back to see me and it will feel like you are attending.


Have a wonderful weekend and ENJOY!

What Did You Say?

I didn't have much time to post this week so I was telling "the girls" about it and they just couldn't believe it. I plan to do better next week. Have a GREAT WEEKEND!

ENJOY!
