Oh snap... turtle freebie


Cute lil guy isn't he!
I don't think he would snap anything.
This is such a sweet yet simple design.

Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season!
Seems like it is going super quick.
My daughter Selina has some great new prints ready!
She just took these Poinsettia pictures...lovely colors! 
I love the pink ones...so different and girly!
She took this photo at a fruit stand ... the pure beauty of fruit!
I love the intense color....and she is now printing these on a Epson sure color p800 printer, with premium luster paper and archival inks.  These will last 200 years or more. 
One of the last roses in our area this year!
I love this lil rose bud!
She specializes in nature and architecture.

If you are into the fun coloring book craze...like me...you will like these free Christmas coloring pages

I am going to watch the Jim Carrey Christmas carol.... it is just beautiful animation!!!
I made this scrooge/dickens sign a few years back...using their sentiment!

What is your favorite Christmas show or movie?

Heart felt Christmas freebie...

It's a heart felt Christmas this year...my new freebie for you to have fun with.
I love drawing up new little designs...perfect to make into a little gift for a friend.
We had snow...but we just got some rain...so I think the Christmas look outside will soon be gone.
I really want a White Christmas, but we haven't had one in a while in Washington state.
*Please note that all freebies are for you to use to make finished goods (no mass producing) and gifts...they are still legally my designs.

I wanted to share this with you...
Clara from Clover and violet shared on her instagram ornaments she is stitching up using my "When the tree top glistens ornaments pattern".
I want to thank her for introducing these to her followers...this pattern was selling like hotcakes.

She has a knack for making her projects look amazing and so inspiring!
Love following her!
By the way ...my instagram is here!
I love instagram...there are so many cool people out there...and their pics are to die for!
These are the ornaments that I made up (my pattern cover)....it just shows how everyone can make it unique.
They were featured on last years cover of Somerset Holidays and Celebrations magazine....along with my witch mannequin design.

So excited.......
My daughter Selina is doing something thrilling!!
She is making wooden mini hoop pendant blanks.
Soon they will be in her new etsy shop....she already has one shop for her photography!
I stitched this up using one of her mini hoops!
I decided to put her name and a few roses on her one.
She loves roses...so it was great for her.
I am so excited...can't wait to stitch more up!
I will be dreaming of these...my wheels turning!!!
She is a senor in high school...looking forward to her future...and of course...I am the proud mama!

Have a fantastic Friday!!!

Make your man happy...& inexpensively!

This year I decided to make a tall skinny tree....devoted to my husband's favorite team....the Seattle Seahawks!
He was really happy....since the whole house is my style and what I want as far as decorations. 
The tree was 5.99 at goodwill....it is atleast 4 foot tall or more...but skinny.
The star was 99 cents- thrift store....garland....99 cents.
Most of the ornaments were from goodwill....99 cents for a box 
I got a few special ornaments from craft fairs...everyone was Seahawk crazy...it is probably the same with your team in your area. 
Plus buying at your local craft shows help our small businesses and your local crafts people.
The lights were just extras I had laying around.
This tree is so pretty and better of course in person.
Best of all...my husband loves looking at it....we are convinced it brought good luck to the last game...lol!

Just a reminder....
