It's been a busy August!

I can't believe it is already August 23rd! Summer goes by way too fast! Well I am winding down from a really fun weekend, my friend Alli's wedding! I was honored to be her personal attendant, I sometimes wonder if I am asked to do things like these because I am assertive and how do you say not shy? It's almost as if my friends think I am bossy! haha. Either way I had a great time and I am so happy for her and Tony. I know they will have a very happy life!

After I posted my photos of the silk flowers my cousin requested a clutch with a big flower on it, and I think it turned out great! Heather I hope you like it!

This past week I had a request for some baby stuff for a baby shower my friend Allison was going to and here is what I made her!

I love the farm scene, the cows are too cute!

I did this birdie free hand and from what I hear it was a great hit at the shower. I love coming up with new designs and can't wait to come up with more!

Silk Flowers!

I've been working on creating fabric flowers lately and finally found a great fabric that holds its shape, its called Dupioni silk. Alli's wedding is just around the corner and she needed me to make her ring bearers pillows so here is what I came up with.

Since her colors are blue and white the flower worked out perfectly. The blue fabric is from the sash that came with the bridesmaids dresses. The wedding is outside in the middle of August so it is highly unlikely that they will be needing a sash for extra warmth, so it was perfect to use for the pillows and her garter.

Alli has two adorable ring bearers so each of them get a pillow!

My friend Laura is getting married in September and for her bachelorette party I gave her the very first bridal version of my make-up bag. She was very excited when she opened it and it's going to look great on her wedding day!

For more detail I sewed some jewels and pearls to the center.

Baby Ella Birth Announcement!

On June 30th at 4:04 am Ella Mary was introduced into this world.  I was so excited that I got to make her birth announcement.  My friend Ashley is a photographer so I suggested Jess contact her for some professional photos of Ella and they turned out beautiful!  Make sure you check out her blog, she is great at what she does! All of the photos turned out great but this photo caught our eye as perfect for the announcement.  I can't say enough good things about my mac and this is a great example of why.  If you're looking for custom invitations or announcements let me know I would love to make something for you!  Also I plan on concentrating on creating Christmas cards.  Think of the pre done ones you can get at Target but better (or so I hope)!  I'll continue to post what I come up with!
