"If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you."

Painted Shelf for Horse Collection

Before
After
I saw this cute lil' wooden shelf at Michael's and thought it would be perfect for my daughter's horse collection! Most are Breyer's Stablemate's..so they are smaller to fit!
The dark purple trim is great against her light purple bedroom walls!

She is my beautiful girl!

Big Owl mini-album


This mini-album is a scraplift idea from Hero Arts blog. The Big Owl is made by Hero Arts so I look for idea's there. I made this mini-album as a small gift for my friend who's dh is in the Army serving in Iraq. She can add pic's of her children to backside or maybe add some journaling and send it to him.
She has 3 kids and works fulltime, I figured she could use some of my creative goodies since she doesn't have much time herself.
Hope she likes it!
