It's a sad and stressful time for us right now. My beloved Me-maw passed away a couple of days ago and we are getting ready to head out of town to be with family for the remainder of the weekend and into next week. We canceled baby girls birthday party and will try to have a small lunch celebration tomorrow before Me-maw's viewing.
Outside of having bursts of crying fits and frantically packing the house for our move on Thursday and Friday...I have been in the studio, making bright & funky scrap-booking embellies and a new 'Bloom' Banner! I'm feeling bright colors right now, because they make me smile and I need it.
Just click on the pictures to go to the listings in my shop (but know that if you snag something, it won't ship until Tuesday or Wednesday when we get back in town)...
These are hand-sewn and made with crepe paper and vintage sheet music...
Paper flowers and puffy glitter, oh my...
And these, I made with cupcake liners, yum...
Thanks for stopping in my friends...'see' you next week!

Jamie :)
Beautiful as always! You come up with the best ideas.
So sorry for your loss. :(

I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't know about you, but for me, it seems like when it rains it poors...A lot of stressful situations tend to happen all at once for me....I can't help but wonder if God wants me to learn from one situation to help me deal or work through the other situation....
