Hello Kitty as my favorite mythological creature! She’s currently framed in my office next to her sister. She’s all hand cut scrapbook paper with foam board in between her layers to make her 3-D. I bent some of the paper to give it a rounded effect before I glued it together.
October’s a busy month in this family with no less than 10 birthdays and 3 anniversaries, including Anthony’s and mine (six great years…where does the time go?!)
Thanks to my family and friends for another awesome birthday last weekend, your thoughtful cards mean so much to me! I love you guys…Ann Marie, your fondant cake rocked and Superbaby, I will keep my monster truck card forever and ever! I got such a good haul I just had to take pictures…here’s one of the of the (eco-friendly!) dining chairs Anthony and I got for each other, the kitty approved bedding Anthony’s family gave us and the beautifully crafted Halloween witch from my family.
Thanks to Stephanie Spears and everyone who made the craft
fair on Saturday so much fun! We had a trickster visit our booth several
times…the Wind knocked down our signs and displays and blew away our neighbor’s
tent. The biggest surprise was that our crafts actually outsold Anthony’s
water. I got a chance to walk around and see all the other booths and there
were lots of beautiful things, like jumbo fabric hair flowers and pretty little
sundresses, made by ultra talented people.
I just couldn’t resist this intelligently designed and perfectly
stitched bib made with retro fabrics by Emily Willert of PlumageEtcetera.Etsy.com.
She made it with ties instead of Velcro (which used to scratch Superbaby’s
skin) and arm holes that protect clothing better than just a neck tie. What I
love most about Emily’s whole line is her hard-to-find fabric selection. Hope
you love this bib as much as I do, baby N!
The winner of the craft fair drawing is Anna Bailey. She’ll be getting her cut paper Kitty in the mail soon!
