Baby Card

There's been a baby explosion of late... Here was the card I sent to a good friend, after the arrival of their first a precious baby boy!

Maui Vacation 2009- Mini Album

We went to Hawaii the end of Oct. beginning of Nov. of 2009... I actually finished this mini album a few weeks after we returned, but it's taken me forever to get it together and post the album. I absolutely love this album (along with the vacation that it went to ;) ) When I picked up the vintage-y pin up girl post card I knew exactly how I wanted to use it.

25 days of Christmas Album

This year since I was wrapping up the 365 photo a day challenge it seemed like a good tie in to not only start a new project but dove tail it into the photo challenge. I really liked this project, but next year I certainly need to take better notes and capture each day more fully. I also need to get much better at taking pictures of these sort of things, they never come out as well as I'd like, but then I'm too impatient to keep trying, since I just want to get them up here.

Here are pictures from the '09 holiday album.

2009 Holiday Cards

I didn't get that great of pictures of these cards... it was unfortunately an afterthought so they looked far better in person. But here they are.

2009 Ornaments



This year I was determined to get back into making ornaments. It's something I've done for many many years... Last year I fell off the wagon... Our life has been a bit hectic and trying the last couple of years, but so even though things aren't back to "normal" I was determined to get back to traditions and hope that would help bring on the holiday spirit. So I found this reindeer pattern and went with it. I love them even if the antlers were way to fragile and half of them had to be glued on.
