Oooooo, I hope I get to attend this time, should know soon whether or not I'll be able to!! How many spaces are available?
The Heart of Communion
The New Year has brought with it some incredibly exciting events, so let's get started!!! We are over-the-moon thrilled to open up registration for our first fabulous weekend event of 2010! As we approach Valentine's Day, our thoughts are turning to romantic jewelry and soft, twinkly lighting. ...
Soooooooo lovely, happy near year to all of you!!
Bring It On
I am more than ready to bring on this New Year... this New Decade. There is a feeling of anticipation in the air tonight. Maybe it's the blue moon... Do you feel it? 2010 just might be the year that it ALL finally comes together. For my part, I will work harder, pray harder, love harder. ...
I LOVE mine sooooooo much, thank you!!!!
Fifteen's The Charm
I have been woefully behind in posting about the extraordinary experience we had last month at Silver Bella. One of the highlights of the weekend is always "swap night". Artists trade their work within the parameters of a theme. So many inspired creations, so much beauty in one room, it is tru...
I think you have found your muse, my dear......she's adorable and those clothes??! OH MY. I'm coveting that green jacket. I could park myself on that swing w/the floral fabric for days. I'm so envious that such a wonderful store is so close by and you didn't even know it! There just aren't that many good ones here unfortunately.
An unexpectedly fun day
Hope everyone had a nice weekend! :-) I woke up this morning to a crappy email, that got me in a crappy mood so I wasn't sure how today was going to go, but it ended up being quite fun! I did a photoshoot for my graphic design job (which I don't do that often, take photos that is)... it was for ...
What a precious idea!
Bella Kindness
Take a peek at what a very sweet and thoughtful Bella sent my way! Bella kindness is ever present across the country. It's evident on the message boards and blogs, that's for sure. Friendships begin and flourish, art is created...often in the name of kindness. So this shouldn't have surprised...
What? Seriously??!! Ohmygoodness gracious!!! You girls just totally made not only my day but entire week, thank you so so so much! I will treasure it always & you can bet you'll see me in it at Silver Bella!! ((hugs))
Winner, Winner!!!
We have a winner in our beautiful "Necklace Love" giveaway!! "Drum roll, please...." The beautiful Jana, of Brown Eyed Girl Photography in San Antonio!!! Congratulations, Jana!! Please get in touch via email so that we can send out your new favorite piece of jewelry!! Thanks, everyone, ...
*swoon* How lovely!!
Class Notes
There was drama this past week involving a hard-drive that was beyond salvage *sob*. Fortunately, I am back online after less than a three day turnaround, and I would just like to say two things regarding my predicament. First, try to avoid letting a three year old lurk around your workstation w...
Oh my, how LOVELY!! Please sign me up for a chance to win! I truly hope to make the trek up I-35 to come see you ladies this summer or early fall. Please tell me you're going to Silver Bella again this fall! Thank you for following me on Twitter, Miss Debbie.
Necklace Love
Time's Up !!! There is so much excitement building in anticipation of the big "Event" happening here next Saturday, and we couldn't resist adding to the delirium with a giveaway!! Cause we love you guys like that. We rescued Daughter's sample boxes from their life of leisure, and quickl...
Thank you for the wonderful eye candy & inspiration! I'm loving Eric's style.
Inspiring Me April/May 2009
I thought it would be fun to start sharing who and/or what inspires me on a monthly basis. For April/May I have been inspired by... Ali Edwards, Her simple style is one that I would love to achieve (no matter how hard I try to be simple in my designs it never works!). And it is not just her wo...
Everything was soooo cute, you did a wonderful job with the swap! Please let me know when you decide to do another, k? Thanks again!!!
Swap Packaging
The day has finally come... Time for me to package all the ATC mini-books and send them off to the participants. I have to say, as a first time swap hostess... I finally realize just how much work really goes into it. :) But, in the end, it's all worth it! Check back for pics of th...
Hey Maija, I thought I was the best SB roommate ever?! haha I *hope* to join you girls on wednesday but if not, I'll be there on thurs. for sure!!!
Slumber- party!
I think it's my birthday!!!! :) After much discussion and about a thousand e-mails... I've changed my plans! I'm departing for Silver Bella 28 hours earlier!!! Woo Hoo!!!! That's more time to visit with my Bella Sisters and more time to shop, shop, shop. Alisa and I are bunkin' with Heather...
Looks like such fun, wish I could've been there!!!! Looking forward to meeting you!
Crafting ~
I spent most of my weekend crafting! After all, we are only weeks away from "the big glitter event". Yes, I'm referring to Silver Bella!!! Heather Ales had a Pre-Bella Workshop that I attended on Saturday. As usual, I had the best time! I finally met Valita and was able to hand deliver Heat...
She's precious.....great job!!
Sneak Peak
There's usually a moment in a photo session when I snap the shutter and I'm like "that's the shot." This afternoon I had such a fun session with one of my favorite families and I had a lot of shots I thought were really good and never had that moment that I usually do. This little girl will be ...
The pics from this session are just precious, Maggie!!!! I don't know how her mom could ever decide which ones to buy.....I'd want them ALL!
I can't get enough...
... of this adorable little girl!! Here are a couple more of the little sweetheart that I posted about last week. This was her 1-year photo shoot! She was so great and lasted a lot longer than I thought she would! She was a trooper! The only thing was -- as soon as we met up to start the shoo...
Congrats, that's SO awesome!!!
Finally, I Can Share This!
Do you recognize this adorable little girl? A few months ago Creating Keepsakes emailed me and asked me if they could use a photo from this shoot that I did for their COVER LAYOUT!! I was so excited and just so honored that they wanted to use one of my photos!! I quickly emailed her parents to ...
Oooooo, I just love ALL of these pics!! Your daughter is simply precious.
Such a Cute Family
Just popping in to share some photos from another recent photo shoot. This family was absolutely adorable! The little boys were so much fun and you could just tell how much their mama and daddy love them!! One of my most favorite photos that I have ever taken comes from this shoot.... It was one ...
I've posted here a few times and have been following your story here for a while now as well and I just wanted to say that all of you will be in my thoughts & prayers. I'm so sorry.
Saying Goodbye
I'm sad to have to share with all of you that Eric's health is rapidly declining. My dear husband is expected to pass soon. I'm taking a short leave from the blog to focus on my family. I'm going to leave you with a poem by Mary Anne Radmacher: was that you that painted your favorite in...
What wonderful ideas & memories to treasure always. Your photography is amazing too!!
last saturday
Thank goodness I have three fantastic helper bees who agree that the packaging and the delivery are equally as fun as the making and the giving parts of gifts. One of our Advent gifts was a pile of white fabric squares bundled with some fabric markers. The boys insisting we make an ornament t...
Awwwwww, what a beautiful perfect day and gorgeous pics of your little one!
Emily Jane - 3 Months!
I can't believe that this little girl is 3 months old already! It is so much fun to see her smiling at us and trying to interact with us now! I feel like we are starting to get a glimpse of her sweet little personality! When she smiles, it is with her whole body and I especially love to see tha...
