I Know I am Biased But...


She is one of the cutest babies I have ever seen!!! Say hello to my baby cousin Olivia. She is 8 months old. She is just starting to roll around on her own and she will be crawling any time now. She always sucks on her upper lip and sticks her tongue out. She is just too cute! These are some wonderful photos too. Its official, baby pictures always put a smile on your face. So go ahead, smile!

Treasury Tuesdays!

I am going to start a series on my blog! I am very excited. Every Tuesday I will be posting a few treasuries that catch my eye. I am going to try and get a mixture of items and sellers. Please feel free to visit any of the shops listed in the treasuries. There are bound to be some wonderful items that you can not help but fall in love with! So please check back every Tuesday for my favorite Treasuries picks! Feel free to let me know what you think about the postings and the items found in the Treasuries. Enjoy! Here they are...
This Treasury was put together by skoshisbits from Etsy. The title is perfect for all these photos--just relax and enjoy the outdoors, take a walk. Just beautiful photos of the wonders of nature. All of these have captured some wonderful moments of the great out doors. Great finds!

This Treasury from UmbilicusDesigns is so totally cool. I love the unusual theme and unique items. Everything is just so interesting and one-of-a-kind. I had no idea you could do that many things with a bone theme. Shows you how talented Etsy artists are! Great picks!!!

I am just so drawn to these colors and tones. This is a very well put together and cohesive collection by Pleyades. I am maybe a little bias because one of my favorite colors is blue but I love how every picture is different but they all go together! Wonderful pictures!
So these are my picks for this Tuesday! I hope you enjoy them. Let me know what you think about them. Have a wonderful rest of the week.

This "Beach Ball - Genuine Sea Glass Cage Necklace" comes from SeaFindDesigns on etsy. Here you can find beautiful sea glass jewelry for any taste. Just beautiful!

Here is a "Lynn-Green Guinea Feather Headband" that is a perfect alternative for a leprechaun hat! At LovMely on etsy you can find all types of headband colors and combos. Very fun and funky!

These adorable "Lucky Charms - 12 Scalloped Embellishments" are perfect for adding that St. Patty's Day touch to any scrapbook page or card! Check out CarasScrapNStampArt on etsy for wonderful paper crafts. Too cute!

Sneak Peak

I am really working hard to get my shop restarted and give it some updated flare. I have a few items up my sleeves. The ones I am most excited about are...

Royal Crown Tags: These come in sets of 8 with a blue, pink or black crown. Each one is dyed, cut, stamped and antiqued by hand (antiqued is the brown ink seen around the edges).
Classic Chandelier Card: Urban papers and colors mixed with a little bit of glam sure makes for an elegant card.
Chandelier Button Tags: These tags are just beauties! Each one has two red stitches and a vintage button attached. Enjoy!
Urban Scroll Fanciful Frame: I love these colors! I just love the way they contrast and blend at the same time!

I hope you like these new "vintage-urban" items. Check out my shop for these items posting!
