Belinda Carlisle...............YOU ROCK!

Today I am envisioning this scrapbox and all the potential it offers for bringing the craft room of my dreams to life...................so I am humming softly to myself (an old habit) and wondering.................could HEAVEN really be a place on earth?

Vintage Christmas 2011

This is a collage of some of the Christmas decor at my home this year; thinking of using this as the photo for my Christmas card next year! What are your thoughts or suggestions?

Rosemary for remembrance

I made this strawberry cake/cream cheese frosting (FOUND ON PINTEREST!) for an adult edible gift exchange this year.......... I added ribbons, rosemary, and gift "shreds" to dress up the presentation. It looked pretty enough to be immediately "stolen" three times very quicky! I hope the recipient enjoyed it and remembers me for years to come.

Angels watching over me

I outfitted an antique dress form with a vintage Christmas sheet music "dress" and some carefully preserved angel wings from my now grown daughter's childhood costume ...........then I added a few embellishments and VIOLA...............my vintage Christmas angel came to life! I loved her and she stole the show!

My favorite memory of 2011

                        I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always; as long as I'm living my baby you'll be.
