Change (New challenge)

Today marks a new challenge that is running for the next two weeks here. It is all about change(s).

It is inspired by New Moon (that has just been releases...ekkkk!)

Hurry over and check out the details and thought behind this challenge from the very talented and fabulous Virginia.

Here is my take:

This is my entry for the current challenge.






This is one of my favorite poems so i decided i would use this. I have had several changes in my life over the last couple of years that i eventually want to scrap but now was not the time.

For my sparkle i used the irredescent on the flowers to represent the paleness of edward. For the other sparkle i used gold to represent what his body looks like when he is in the sunlight.

Even if you haven't read the twilight series you can still participate in this challenge. So hurry go scrap...we want to see what you do.

**Mwah**

Dear Santa

It's that time of the year again and Noel will have her Dear Santa kit up for pre sale on the 15th of this month. i know from years past this is one of her fastest selling kits (although here lately they have been selling out in the pre sale stage). if you are interested in snatching up this gorgeous bad boy i suggest you set a reminder. This will go fast.

here are some sneaks:








Don't hate me {ducking}

If you would like to receive her newsletter you can shoot her an email at noel{at}noelmignon.com and get added to the list. that way you will receive news of sales and up coming releases.

**i can't wait to get my grubby hands on this one** i have some ideas swarming in my head.

90 pounds of fig homemade fig cookies

Thenew challenge rolls out tomorrow and here is my layout for it. Be sure and check it out...it will be a fun one.

not normal

Here lately i have no idea what i am doing or who i am for that matter. I don't know if it is the new medicine they have put me on or what my deal is....i just don't feel myself....i feel very depressed, alone, worthless, you name it i feel it. Why? {shrugs shoulders} this is totally not me. I have never been one for a pity party or one to worry or any other thing. I am a free spirit...i am always laughing, cutting up, cracking jokes....

Now I am different and it is as if it just came overnight. It has to be my new medicine....it has to be....and i am not liking it. Maybe i should go back on my old stuff. That seem to be ok....this stuff makes me not even want to get out of bed. That is not good.....not good at all....

America's Next Top Model

is Ms. Emerson. I know she loves skully's so I whipped up a few things for her so she can be my model for my etsy shop. check out these.








isn't she the cutest.. THANKS EM for being my model. :)

Thank you Lord

My mom's doctor called her yesterday afternoon and said she can sleep well tonight. It was just a "spooky spot" that was shadowing her mammy and it the further tests revealed it is not cancer again!

Sigh of Relief!!

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers and sharing your stories.

Love ya'll!! :)

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

If you have been following this blog for a while you know this is the most important cause to me...It is has touched my family hard. My mom and my aunt.

My mom went for her boobie smashing this past week and they saw something that they want to take a closer look at. I am not freaking the hell out just yet. It could be some scar tissue from her last episode. I am thinking positive.

Think Positive.
Think Positive.
Think Positive.

{deep sigh}

Happy Monday!

This is what has consumed my time

Yes i have been busy. this is just a sample of what you will find in my shop. All these were custom orders from local peeps here in town.

"thor, Ethel and Sergio" are on FIYAH!! I still have quite a few of these to make to complete all my orders. Aren't they cute?

Poor Melana she is now feeling neglected because everything i make she wants to know if it is for her ..bless her heart. She only has so much room in her closet though...

so here we go

first the tutu bow holders this one is the XL and the bodice is 12 inches in height. Handpainted MDF 1/2 thick wood. total length of the holder is 34 inches. this will hold LOTS of bows. I offer Medium (8 inch bodice-26 inches total length) Large (10 inche bodice-30 inches total length) and XL. **this was a custome order**

Now on to the clothes:


This particular dress is reversible..polkas on one side and the birds on the other. It closes with the button bows that match either side. It is great because you can take the bows off to wash it.





This is my favorite of the halloween fabric i have. I just love this one for some reason. I need to get to sewing my other halloween fabric too. Before you know it halloween will have come and gone. This particular one is not reversible but could be.




This is one of the xmas fabrics i have.. I will be uploading the other ones i have soon.

These are great because you can put a turtle neck under them or a long sleeve shirt and tights or pants. These can be made as shirts or dresses. Reversible or non reversible.

My mom has been super busy getting ready for a craft fair she makes all the swarovski crystal jewelery you see in my etsy shop. Any outfit can have a made to match hairbow and/or bracelet.






Now you see why i have neglected my poor old blog {sniff sniff} i have more stuff to show but i would be here for days loading so i will load a few at a time :)

To cap this off i leave you with my baby girl in her sassy outfit


I could just squeeze her.

I'll be back soon... *hopefully* :)

Peace out!
