Birthday Party Planning!

Birthday craziness is in full effect!!! I have so much to do, all the little details seem to take forever but it is totally worth it!!!! I love detail! Until after our daughters party which is March 2nd, I will mainly be posting free printables here and there. Photoshop stuff is what I have been working on like crazy these past few days!

My little sweetie is having a puppy themed party :) She is obsessed with puppies and it has only gotten worse since my husband gave her one as an early birthday present (sigh). I have tried to make her birthday party gender friendly since she has a lot of little friends that are boys but o my we do love pink!!!! I CANNOT WAIT TO POST ALL I HAVE DONE!!!! I am so excited for it all to come together and I am sure I will be posting a peek or two!!! Have a wonderful day, week, month!!!! Enjoy!!

10 Ways to LOVE

1. Listen without interrupting.

5. Answer without arguing.
Proverbs 17:1 – Better a dry crust with peace and quiet than a house full of feasting, with strife.

Valentine #7 and how I am doing :)

Today's Valentine's post marks the halfway point! While I have had so much fun, I didn't realize what this commitment would mean. My husband had to leave town for work and may be gone longer then expected. This had been hard juggling a new puppy (ugh I feel all I smell is dog lol) my lovely daughter who chooses on her terms her potty training schedule (I could write many post on this subject) and my tons and tons of party planning and projects!!!!! I'm a bit shaky right now from my yet another cup of coffee. I feel the bags under my eyes can be spotted before anyone even knows who I am. But I'm chugging right along with my caffeine engine........well kinda chugging :)

 

When I laid out my projects for this there were some pretty awesome ones but now the list has downsized a bit. I will definitely use my other ideas on future post. Day 11, 12 and 13 are awesome foods, sweets for my sweets :) as for now I am going to go and work on Valentine Day project #7. I hope it turns out as pretty as in mind, and no fails like yesterday's post. Have a wonderful day! The weather is beautiful today, finally, so why complain :)

I will continuously add to my Warning Post :)

Stopping by? Learn a little about me :)

Thank you for stopping by!!!

First off I am a proud wife and momma!!!! :)

I've always been cheap.....not in the penny pinching sort of way but in the I see something pick it up look at the price tag and say "I can make this.....for way cheaper!" Why not just buy it? It's a challenge I guess, to see what I can do. Now that being said I know my limits, I'm not here to compete with Picasso but at the same time I like a little competition! :) I create, its what I do , whether it's in the kitchen the garden my craft room or in my head all day, I create. I love to plan parties, o my, since having my daughter it has become an obsession and I love it! My husband and I love to host I could fill up a blog on our gatherings alone (maybe I'll be a writer, squirrel) ooops never mind back to my love of crafting. I have had friends, family and acquaintances along the way tell I should do more with my uh whats it called, well I'll call it talent! My sweet husband has always told me that I'm the bomb at what I do throughout the year and tonight has given me the encouragement to blog and share. So thanks to him there's one more crazy crafter sharing her ideas that I am sure someone else has but not with my spunk :)

NEW BLOG?????

Ok so here it is my "New Blog" I had a hard time intertwining my personal blog with my creative ventures. I would want to pin something onto Pinterest, or would have another blogger want to share a link and well I just felt uncomfortable. So my life, family, friends is on my personal blog and all my crazy craftiness is on this one! So now I can feel comfortable sharing my ideas, craftiness, horrible sewing skills and major ninja glue gun skills here and I don't mind someone I may never meet taking a peek! If you have any questions about something I have done or if you see anything on my blog and would like a tutorial PLEASE let me know! Leave me comment, give me advice or just say "hi." :) This is my new venture and I would love your input or advice just remember I'm no pro! I am a horrible speller my grammer skills are just pathetic but this girl has a glue gun and knows how to use it!
