Starting the Hearts!

Hi all and Happy New Year!
It's all about the hearts now. It's full speed ahead on the Valentine creating.
This is a tiny sneak peek at what I'm working on.
The holidays were fun, but I'm glad it's back to normal. All the decorations are put away, the lights are down, and the house is decorated for winter. Next will be the Valentine decorations. That is a much easier and simpler project.
I hope you have a great week. I will be here in the studio working away if you want to stop by and say hello.
It's quite cold for Southern California, and we even had a freak snow storm yesterday, so I'm very happy to be in the studio working. That is after my morning walk. I guess I need to bundle up and get out there.
Chat again soon.
Love,
Rosemary

Happy New Year 2011!

Hi all!
Hope you had a fantastic Christmas!
We sure did. Baby Jake is now walking and talking, so cute!!! I guess 15 months is not quite a baby anymore. He is trying to say and repeat words now. He had such a fun Christmas, and we enjoyed playing with him and all of his fun new toys.
I want to wish all of you a very Happy New Year!!!

I am a bit under the weather today, as I think the holidays finally caught up to me.
I have laryngitis and a sore throat. Hope it goes away before New Years Eve.
I will be starting on the Valentines projects soon, if you can believe that.
Have a great week, and a very Happy New Year!!
Love,
Rosemary

Merry Christmas!

Hi all and Merry Christmas!
These are just some scenes around my house.
I can't believe that Christmas is here once again. Where does the time go?
I hope you all have the best, most wonderful holiday, and Santa brings whatever you wish for.

Handmade Bows!

Hi all!!
Hope you are all ready for the big day.
I just finished up my gift wrapping today. I wanted to show you the bows I made for the packages this year. (Changed my mind Jean)
They take time, but are worth the effort.
It's been raining here since Friday, and we are suppose to get more.
I'm pretty sure I might need an Ark for Christmas.
Enjoy your week!
Merry Christmas!!
Chat again soon.
Love,
Rosemary

Paper Decorations

Hi all!
Hope you are having a good week so far.
I have been working on some paper decorations. All you need are some old book pages, glue, scissors, glitter, seam binding, and some time. The last one is the hardest, as I haven't had much time lately. I'm finally getting done with my shopping, now everything has to be wrapped. I'm finding that stocking stuffers are the most difficult this year. I like to try to find interesting and unique items. I have to fill 5 stockings. Somehow my daughter has 2 stockings. She has since she was a baby, so the tradition continues. She loves it!! Who wouldn't?
It's all fun just the same. I need to make a call to Santa, maybe he can help me out.
I have been the worst blogger lately, but I'm sure you are all very busy this time of year.
We had a tiny heatwave, and thank goodness it's now over. It's back to the regularly scheduled weather for Christmas.
Enjoy your day!!
Chat again soon.
