I've had a great time moving into our dream house, traveling to San Diego, and going to Girl Scout camp with my oldest this summer! But, I'm so glad to be home and getting settled into the new house. It feels like I've spent more time away than actually in the house and I need some homey time. Isn't that funny...needing a vacation from our vacations? It's always nice to take them, but nice to come home too :)
Since I've had a full few days at home, I've been able to do some creating for the shop and I'll be having a wee update by nightfall.
Here's a peek...
I embellished the edge of the scallops with vintage German glass glitter and adore the red and aqua frills...
This one would be perfect for any summer-time party (or as a year round decoration to remind yourself to live a little ;)...
I imagined lots of clowns, balloons, and cotton candy while making this one...
I've been wanting to get some moleskin journals in the shop forevah now, and here's my first addition...
There's something so enchanting about the 'butterfly nest.' I colored it with pastel chalk which makes it look really dreamy (although hard to tell from the picture). I think it'd be perfect as a bedside dream journal or as a lightweight, throw-it-in-your-bag inspiration journal.
And I love Matryoshka Dolls, so when I saw this stamp set, I couldn't resist...
I've also had fun lately making custom banners...'Quilter,' 'Lemonade,' and 'Let's Celebrate,' just to name a few. So if you've got an upcoming party or are in need of some whimsical home decor, let me know and I'll whip one up for you!

Pretty banner. Great idea to use the crepe paper.
