Star Wars Birthday Party Time

My 6 11/12 year old (his term, not mine) is soon to be 7 in a couple of weeks and now it's 
Mommy Freak Out Time!
 I know I don't have to go all crazy with decorated cakes/ cookies, matching partyware and such.... but really.  That's me.  I like to do it, I just know wish I had done it starting last month like I wanted to.  But with the holidays, you know how it is...it's just gets plain crazy.  
So I have a few ideas


1) First: I traded a custom picture frame 

 for some of The Sweetest Thing's cookies

Not these cookies..I don't have them yet.  They are going to arrive fresh for his birthday.
He decided to go with the Star Wars theme (big surprise, right?)
Some little lightsaber cookies would be very cool.

2.  Yeah, that's all I have so far.  But it is one of my top priorities right now so I'll let you all know how the process is coming along.  

In the meantime, if you are in need of any cookies, you should visit The Sweetest Thing.
And you can see all the fun thing she's working on at her blog.
Maybe something sweet for your Valentine?

I was contacted earlier this month from an event planner here in my part of town, Rylie Boo events.  She wanted to use my art frames to feature in her events and photo shoots.  
How cool is that???

Well, here it is.  This is the first one and it was featured over at
Save the Date for Cupcakes

Felt Heart Wreath

You know I love my wreaths!
And this one is no different.  I am looking forward to making this wreath, just in time for Valentine's Day.



Go on over to The Idea Room and check out the tutorial. It's so easy and inexpensive. 
 My only problem is where I am going to store all these wreaths!

Personalized Photo Art Frames

Happy New Year!!

The holidays are over and I am ready for the New Year and all it has to bring.

I have been busy creating in the studio and wanted to share what I have been doing.  
I have decided to expand my art line with these photo frames.  They are SO much fun to create.  I get to use all of my "stuff".


The grandkids frames are really popular.

This motocross frame has the little boy's name on the sprocket that I made out of polymer clay.




Perfect for the little soccer player.  I can see it with pink paper in the background for a little girl.  


This ballerina frame has a little tutu and ballet slippers made out of polymer clay and a personalized name plate at the bottom.

That's about it for now but I am in the process of a wedding frame with the words of the first dance.

Anyone have any ideas for other frames?
