So grateful…

For a life full of love.
For family so dear.
For children so sweet.
For friends who listen and care.
For readers who I know are there.
Thank you!

Mr R so wonderfully gifted me new art materials... So I dabbled yesterday with them... They're almost like watercolour pens... Faber - Castell make some fabulous project.
I just have to practice a little more with them.

Have a wonderful Boxing Day!

New Banner...what do you think?

I know,I know...I keep trying to change the existing one...but take a look at all of them together...
I am really loving the colours of our new one...and the fact that it's of Tam and I across the Ocean...which is very symbolic...we're 2 birds (as they would say in the UK) and...well...enough said.
I would love your feedback!

Should we keep the birds up for a while???

Have a lovely weekend!

P is for Paper-LOVE

<<<>>

Little miss Ash was home yesterday with a really ROUGH cough...a little Aloe and Honey cured all...but she had to stay in bed for the first part of the day...and then out came the glue...paper...and sewing machine.

such FABULOUS colours...

still working on my TWEETS...I *heart* this one...

and this sleepy Tweet is super shy when awake...you probably wouldn't have gotten a snap shot of her if she had seen us!!

I know we have Christmas coming up...I know these aren't Christmas colours...but want to have the option to be able to show them in the Spring too.

colour-colour-colour

Miss A was actually very creative with her Paper Crafts...

Miss J just wanted to colour...

Miss A loved cutting and sticking...

They both love crafting with Mummy...I LOVE crafting with them...especially when I have mountains to achieve in 2 days!!!

Have a wonderful Wednesday.

P.S. Only 2 MORE days until the Mamas and Chicks Show!!!

Frantic Friday...with a little surprise GIVEAWAY:-)

WHY do I always leave things to the last minute? Do you?

I have ridiculous amounts of tasks which need to be completed by next week...and I probably could have had them finished and out of the way...but no, I leave them to the last minute.

I am so pleased that I have all my PINS ready...it's been really very theraputic...sitting in the evening painting teeny faces...and cats,owls and birds...

I'm excited about how they will be received. Then SUPER happy I'll have new product to add to my ETSY store which has become a little stale this year. I know this is NOT the way to keep business and sales ticking over...so I will try harder to update and make my store a little fresher.

55 PINS in total...each one unique and hand painted with love and care...

I love organising this Show...and love meeting all our vendors...they're a fantastic group of women.
If ONLY all of you guys could come shopping at our Show!!! Then I'd get to meet you too!!!
I would love to host an Etsy Show here in Toronto...kind of like the Renegade...I know there are a tonne of craft Shows here...but one JUST for ETSY Artisans...hmmm,brain ticking.
I am going to get on with my FRANTIC Friday...

BUT 1st::
                        Tell me which PIN is YOUR FAVE (click on the above image to view larger) and I will pick a winner on Monday morning. (you must be a fabulous reader to qualify-sorry...I'm very loyal to our readers!)

Have a FABULOUS weekend all of you.
