Below are a few birthday cards I made and am posting for inspiration. New idea: use an old unwanted book to cut a shape out of, color and add to your card. It's a different twist and gives the card more detail without a lot of time or effort.

DIY: Card Crafting
How quickly a month goes by. Definitely faster after the baby is born, than when you're waiting for the baby to come... Making sure I don't take any of it for granted.

Initial Inspiration
When I was young I used to spend hours reading and taking in the pictures in decorating books and magazines. It became an obsession.
For as long as I can remember, I've been enthralled by the holidays and the magical atmosphere one could create around them. But the more I grew and the older I got, the more I realized that it's not just the holidays that can be enjoyed in that overly-delightful, warm-fuzzy-feeling sense. If we have the right attitude and perspective on life, every day life becomes just as wonderfully sweet and beautiful and enjoyable.
I still really like the holidays. I like throwing parties. I like making crafts. I love beautiful things. And I really, really love my everyday life. This blog is to inspire others to create an atmosphere and get past the "ho-hum" perspective on the delightfulness of everyday life.
