My new FAVORITE Artist



Hi, this is my new favorite artist that I found on Etsy a few weeks ago. I love the colors and the brush strokes and the texture it brings out. The paintings with the "rain" themes are amazing how she captures the reflections. Check it out. http://kgentryart.blogspot.com/

Yes...it's another Crayon Roll Up




This one is way cute too. I even got to use my new labels. Aren't they adorable. If anyone needs them go to... http://www.mysugarplumbaby.com/ . She's amazing. She's on ETSY too. Her labels add "sew" much to my crafts! Yeah!
This fabric reminds me of the Fruit Stripes Gum. The one with the zebra on it.

Ok, so here's a Diaper Cake that I made. I have 3 bottles, 3 onesies, 1 pants, 1 travel wipes, binki clip, body wash for mama, and some samples of stuff. Let me know how you like it.

Crayon Roll Up



I actually got this idea from Larry's mom. She use to make them out of wash cloths for her kids many years ago. Now the idea is coming back into style. Here's my version of it! This Roll Up holds 16 crayons. It makes a great gift! Let me know if you like it. It actually took a bit longer to make it that I thought, almost 1 hour. Oh well, it was my first time.

Madeline's 1st Day of Kindergarten


It was so cute this morning. Larry & I were in the bathroom getting ready and Maddie comes in and says..."I bet you can't believe that your 5 year old is going into Kindergarten!" It was soooo funny. She was so exticed she barely ate any breakfast. She's in the morning class, so it makes it much easier for the rest of the day. Kylie was excited too. She had to stand by Maddie and take pictures just the same. Maddie's backpack is so cute! We drove to the school and I pulled up and Maddie hopped out, we said a quick goodbye as I watched her walk calmly to her new classroom. All day Kylie kept asking it if was time to pick Maddie up. "Maddie (rather 'Baddie'-that's how she pronounces it) school now?" It was so cute. She was actually kind of bored with out Maddie. I would ask her if she missed Maddie and she would do her sad voice and say "yeah". Then when it was finally time to get her she was very excited! Maddie had a great day and she loves her teacher. She even made a few friends. Oh...too funny (or sad) I need to share. While she was so happy to go, she said there was a little boy who cried for his mom to stay, and he kept crying he was even thowing up in the garbage can by the door. Poor thing!

Baby Girl Diaper Cake


Ok, so I made this for my friend who is having a girl. What do you think? It's a 2 tier newborn diaper cake (25 diapers), with 2 binki clips, and a minky Tag blanket and a pink headband
(not shown).

This one is for my other friend who had a little boy...but now instead of size 1 diapers...I should have used tiny tiny ones. Oh well.
