Life is a wonderful, crazy, confusing place and I'm just trying to find my place in it. Great family, friends and a wonderful business keep me grounded and this blog is filled with a little of everything from my life.

Pendant Paradise
What does every girl need in her life? My answer is a whole smorgasbord of pendants!
I just started making altered wood tile pendants & BOY are they a BLAST to create! The possibilities are endless with such gorgeous scrapbook paper out there to use, personal photos and random clip art. The wood tile pendants are made by gluing on the paper, painting the sides, then pouring resin on the surface to create a glass-like face.
My pendants are very affordable at $6.50 a piece. I wanted to price them reasonably so you can have one for every outfit, if you choose to.
Go to www.sweetwhimsy.artfire.com to buy online!
Em's Custom Clipboard
Ever since I started making decoupaged clipboards, my little Emily wanted one of her own. She's an elephant nut, so I finally found the perfect paper for hers. I finished tying on the ribbons today & just had to share!
It's so cute....and Emily loves it!
The fabulous Cricut
Oh, the joy of owning a Cricut Expression!! I just finished making 50 sale tags for our Sweet Whimsy products. The tags are SO cute! They have a dragonfly cut-out on them which is just perfect for us since our logo has a dragonfly on it.
I used the Walk in My Garden cartridge & the Cricut pretty much did the rest. I'm adding eyelets & string to tie them to our products so the prices are on each item for shows. What an easy, fun way to make our products a little more personal! So much nicer than a plain white sticker for a price tag.
Sweet Whimsy
Sweet Whimsy
I've finally put all of my MLM businesses to the side and have begun a new venture with my closest friend. We just launched Sweet Whimsy this month and are crafting our little fingers to the bone! I'm so excited to be creating again and love that my daughter jumps in helping me paint, choose colors and toss around ideas.Tonight I was working on making an elephant clipboard for my daughter, finished sealing a dog themed clipboard, and finished painting a ladybug frame. I'll post pics when they are in their finished stage. :)
Here are a few things I've finished recently....
Lovely Ladybug clipboard
Paws on Your Heart frame
It's been so long since I've crafted and I am having so much fun creating again! Ideas are spinning in my head and it's almost overwhelming! Can't wait for our first craft show to see how the public feels about our designs.
