Point of View Lens

My good friend Jenni took some family pictures for us a few weeks ago. She is has an amazing eye, and does some very cool effects using Photoshop or some other such software.

If you would like to see some more good pictures of my family - not the crappy snapshots I usually post, check out Jenni's blog...

Upcycled T-shirts

I wanted to do some sewing/creating but did not want to start a new big project, so I got a few old t-shirts at a thrift store and decided to embellish them. I think they turned out pretty cute. I have them for sale in my ETSY store.

They were quick and easy, and I have some ideas for some more - just have to go out and get some more nice t-shirts to recycle.

Inspired to Create...

Saturday was my birthday - I won't say what number birthday - but my birthday none-the-less... I share my birthday with one of my best friends and "cousin-in-law" Lori. Lori was celebrating a "milestone" birthday this year (the big 40), so her family threw her a party. So we went to the party to help her celebrate.

Lori is an amazing artist and illustrator. Although it was her party, she painted me this canvas for my birthday.I just love my new picture!!!

She even put red polka dot ribbon along the edge of the canvas to finish it off...

She is such a talented artist!!!

Doesn't it look great in my sewing area - it matches perfect with the sewing table I made earlier this year.I am now inspired to start sewing some new creations...
