Waltzingmouse Blog Party!

Posted by Sarah Martina on Mar 17, 2012 in Uncategorized | 19 comments

Hi friends! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We’re celebrating the day over at Waltzingmouse with our monthly blog hop… This month’s theme, of course, is St. Patrick’s Day or anything Irish. So in keeping with that, I created a stitched clover using some punched hearts. The sentiment is stamped from the Celtic Heritage set, and then layered on a Jillibean Soup corrugated tag. I used some pretty paid paper as my back drop and a strip of fabric, polka-dot decorative tape as an accent. To join us for the hop, pop by...

.. baby BOY! We found out in January that we are officially expecting another baby boy! To reveal the gender, I cooked up a yummy cake with blue center, and after icing it (very well) in white, I decorated it a bit in pink and blue. Nothing fancy…. (my Sydney helped me out with that part), but just enough to keep the secret hidden until a slice was cute and pulled out. The cake was delicious, by the way, lol. We had our closest family over for the reveal. It was a casual get together, something our family does best, with...

Hey y’all! Happy Monday to ya! I have the pleasure of sharing a friend of mine’s special new craft endeavor with you today… Shanna Vineyard, whom I know from way back in my 2 Sketches 4 You DT days (actually, I was a fan of hers before then, to be honest, lol!), has combined her love of hand-drawing and painting with her fondness of bright, happy colors to bring us a digital paper-crafting kit that is different than anything you’ve ever seen! In celebration of Shanna relocating back home to Arizona...
