My Blog Tour

Since this blog is new and still under some construction I wanted to give you all my personal tour. First we have my beautiful header and background I got from "The Cutest Blog on the Block." They have some amazing backgrounds but this one tells some of my story.  Beautiful brown butterflies flying upwards to higher heights. Love that image!

Next, I have pages I have added here on the sidebar to the right. "My Cards" has a link to my Two Peas in a Bucket account where you can see my work. Two Peas is one of my favorite sites and I love posting my cards there.  I hope you enjoy seeing my card "babies."

Another page is "Who Inspires Me?" I love that I could give some recognition to those who have inspired me in my creative journey.  Guess who my number one cheerleader is? Well, you will have to click over there to see. :)

My last page for now is "Inspiring Music." I was raised in a musical family and surrounded by all sorts of music.  So a few days ago I saw another crafter had her playlist on her blog and I wanted to do the same.  I stumbled on to http://www.playlist.com/ and it was pretty easy setting up the account and choosing my music. They have tons of songs.

So all the songs I picked have messages of strength, love, encouragement and confidence. (Plus they sound good too.) These are the songs I listen to as I chase after my dreams. I hope you can take a little time to enjoy then and be moved by them. It is ok if you want to dance and shake your groove thang to a few of them. Ha Ha Ha!

Well, these are the main features I wanted to show you on this tour. I hope you enjoyed the ride! See you soon!

Our Romantic Anniversary Dinner

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been great.  Today I wanted  to share some of our wedding anniversary pictures with you.  Last Sunday, my hubby arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at the very place where we had our wedding reception.  I was so excited when I found out that they set up a table for us to have the whole banquet room to ourselves.  How great was that??? The restaurant is right on the bay and has the most spectacular  views.  So when we arrived they had a table set up for us right by the windows so we could get an even better view.  They had the rest of the room set up for an event but I still could remember how it looked the night of our wedding with the lights and the dance floor.  Plus the left side of the room is nothing but windows so you can see more of this secluded bay. So as we dined we watched the sunset and it was so fabulous.  Even at night all the lights from the surroundin...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS.  I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps  Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child.   I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!

Cupcakes Anyone?

Happy Fall! Last Summer I took a cupcake decorating class at Michael's and I loved it. It was really great to learn the basics. This was all new to me and I was excited to try it out.  All Summer I wanted to make more but the weather got too hot to bake so I had to wait. Finally we had a break with some cooler temps and I was able to get back to these yummy treats.   I made two of my favorite colors: happy sunny yellow and hot pink. Oh, and they tasted good too.        Have you tried cupcake or cake decorating before? Isn't it like art? Maybe that is why I love it. Now I can't wait to make some more. Thanks for stopping by!
