Where did MARCH GO??

Oh my goodness!! I have been so busy this month! I looked at the calendar and realized that yesterday was the first day of spring! Oh MY!

I've been slammed with Fancy Pants stuff this month, so my blogging has been pretty slow ;) But I am SOOO excited about this new stuff from FP, I think it's my favorite work to date! I can't wait to show you all.

And today, I picked up the latest edition of Mary Engelbreit's Home Companion ( I LOVE THIS MAG!) and I was SO Thrilled to see my Fancy Pants ad!



Hee Hee. I was so proud! This is a photo of a wall in my foyer. Brenna was so excited when I showed her the mag. She thought we were famous! ;) (Sorry Brenna, NOT QUITE!)

Anyway. I also wanted to share with you my latest and greatest at ScrapArtist.

So I have been in my studio painting all day! :) I couldn't stop.. I made some cute little goodies and thought I would share with you.



Painted Art Vol#1

These were SO MUCH FUN to create! Honestly, I haven't had this much fun painting since Kindergarten Art Class. This 10 piece set is volume one, and I guarantee that there is more where this came from ;) But you really have to see these guys close up to appreciate them, so I've got a little freebie for you!



Flourish Freebie

The first 5 layouts or cards I see using this freebie will win my new Painted Art Doodles, send me a link to your image and I will send you your prize! :)

Gina Alexander.. Be still my Heart ;)

So, I fell in love today with a hand bag! Seriously.

Maybe it was more of the thought of what my handbag could be ;)

You might think I am crazy, maybe I am! But have you seen these??





These are Photo Bags by Gina Alexander.

And while they are pricey, I've talked Paul into letting me design one for Mother's day! :) WOOHOO!! (Oh I am SUCH A BAG HAG!!)

And now I am just dying trying to figure out what to do!! I want something timeless.. Oh, this is going to be TOUGH! And once it's submitted you can't change it, so I have to LOVE it the first time ;) Tall order??

I borrowed my neighbor's studio last week. And took these photos of the girls.. I am trying to decide if they are 'the ones' for my purse..







I love these photos, but I am not sure if they are right, too prop-y? And I am not 100% sold on the conversion.. (I used Photoblast Midnight Color Pro) (oh the pressure!) It was late at night when we borrowed the studio and Lorynn was obviously less than cooperative.. But she is still cute in her little pout..

I know I am totally over thinking this! (That is my downfall sometimes!!) I am off to seek out inspiration.. I will let you know what I find!
