Altered Bird House

Finally posting a project!!! I made this cute little birdhouse with the Prima Divine paper pad, Prima Rondelle collection fkowers, a fabric doily, and some Tattered Angels Pink Cadillac Glimmer Mist.  The roof is actually strips that I punched out using an EK Success scallop border punch. I inked the edges of all of the papers and the sides of the birdhouse with Distress Marker in Stormy Sky.  The birdhouse itself is from Michaels, it is made of the MDF board.  The feather on the top came from the kid's craft section at Michaels as well. I am fully embracing this whole Shabby Chic style now :) i have the birdhouse in my scrapbook room on top of a silver pillar candle holder, and it looks great! Cant wait to play with the other birdhouses I have!

Hello....................I'm back!!!!!!!

Hello everyone, so alot has happened since my first and only blog entry here.  I ended up going back to school for Early Childhood Education and just finished my first semester back.  I have to give myself a pat on the back because I ended up having to go back full time and walked out at the end of the semester with a 3.91 GPA! So proud of myself, juggling the girls and all of their activities, a full class schedule, observation hours, and some side work. It was a juggling act at times, but totally worth it, especially since i will be graduating next June!

Ok, so enough about me :) the girls are doing amazing. Kenzie is now a year old and starting to walk. Kyleigh is finishing up the 2nd grade and then will be starting cheerleading during the summer.  These girls are what gets me through my days, they are my life, my inspiration...my past, present, and future :) ♡

I am still posting videos on Youtube, although I sometimes think that Kenzie takes over the camera!  I decided to take the summer off from school so I am hoping to get a lot of great projects done.  My "to do" list is growing by the day!  Well that is it for now, I promise I wont
go on another hiatus this time around!
