<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A few months earlier said friend asked me if I would be willing to put together a book that housed all of their prized mementos from their lives together thus far. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I have to admit I found the task a little daunting, because I was used to making albums with my own memories and stories. I had never been handed a box of letters, cards, photos and other memorabilia that belonged to someone else and been given complete creative license over it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The book would be used not only as a memory book, but a book in which wedding quests would write their congratulatory messages. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After searching, and searching, and searching I finally found the perfect book that would house all of these memories. I remembered an Etsy shop that makes the most amazing books and headed there! Luckily, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/PeregrineArtsBindery?ref=pr_shop_more" target="_blank">Peregrine Arts Bindery</a> had a gorgeous book that matched the wedding colors and I was on my way! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The couple had ALOT of cards and it took me a long time figuring out how to use them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was told I could cut them up and use them however I felt would work best. Many of the personal messages in the cards referred to the wording of the card and I didn't feel right separating the two. I also didn't want to do a page that was just two or three cards because that would take up precious page space. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think I am pretty much a genius for coming up with this one!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one page with many cards on it!! I glued down two cards on each side and then glued a card onto each of those cards but not all the way, just the very top of the card is glued so that both cards can still be opened. </div>

I also really loved this idea! I included several pages that will allow the couple to record what they did on each of their wedding anniversaries moving forward. The top of the paper says Wedding Anniversaires and there is a line for each anniversary! How fun it will be for them to look back each year and remember how they celebrated. </div>

Last summer one of my best friends got married and she asked me to make her invitations because she couldn't find what she wanted anywhere else. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When she told me she wanted the New York City Skyline with a Disco Ball Moon behind it, I could see why she couldn't find something so unique anywhere else!! </div>

So I am going through all of my photos and finding so many photos of things I made and never blogged about! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A friend asked me to help her with some quick and easy centerpieces for </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a small shower. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

The couple was expecting their second child, a boy!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made some simple dark and light blue flowers - 2 small and 2 large</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The small flowers had little blue baby feet in the center while the large flowers had a photo of the family in the center. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found some really inexpensive but cute blue ceramic pots at Michaels and added some brown shredded packing material to the pot as a filler. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They were super easy, quick and came out so cute. </div>

The photos I took of everything aren't the greatest but I hope you get an idea of how cute it all turned out! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
I forgot to take photos of the Ice Cream shaped invitations that came out so adorable (hey I have a 5 month old!) but promise to print out a sample and share some photos here!<br />
<br />
I made these really cute Ice Cream circles that I hung from the light in my kitchen. I was so amazed at how adorable it turned out.<br />

He and his big sister Emma have kept me busy!! I haven't been able to create much and have really missed it. I took on a few jobs from family and a few local people and really hope to get up and running again soon.<br />
<br />
I may start taking easy jobs if I am given lots of time to create them!<br />
<br />
In the mean time I am going to be updating this blog a bit and sharing some photos of the projects I have been working on!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span><br />
<a href="http://www.AllBlogTools.com/"></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">After I lost my job, I set up a shop on Etsy.com to start something that I was passionate about! Making paper goods, stationary, party invitations, etc. One big part of Etsy that a lot of people don't understand is that it is not only an online marketplace for people who sell handmade goods - it is also a community! I found this out right away as I discovered a group of people who devote themselves to something called a "Sneak Attack". I was fascinated by the concept - every Monday and Thursday night several new Etsy shops (with 0-4) sales are selected and announced on a website (www.handmademovement.com). The shops would then get many visits, item hearts and purchases. What an amazing thing to do for someone else who is just starting out! I was hooked from the beginning!! </span><br />

The thing about this group is that they are the kindest, dedicated, open hearted, caring, creative and loving group of people I have never met! We have established a great friendship and support system and I've never met any of them in person. Modern day technology is amazing this way!!! </div>

That being said, my friends, sent me a virtual baby shower in a box today! I am so thankful for such thoughtful, loving and talented friends. I can't thank you enough for all of the gifts as well as the kindness, support and friendship you have all blessed me with! I love every single item each and every one of you has sent.</div>

Since you all couldn't be here in person to see me open the gifts, I took photos with my laptop, the lighting is great and some things are backwards - but I hope you enjoy as much as I did! </div>

As I was sorting my photos the other day, I came across many photos of things I made but never got a chance to list for sale in my Etsy shop. I really loved some of the items and really need to sit down and make some to photograph or fine tune the design so that it can be mass produced. Anyway....I thought I'd share some of my favorites here and perhaps you'll see these in the future as a regular store item. Of course, if you love something just contact me and I'd be happy to make it for you.<br />

I am sure I can find more if I dig around, it's amazing how many things go through the design phase but never make it to production. Many of the above items, were produced for the customer who requested the custom item and I just haven't had a moment to list the design for sale in my shop! </div>

Good Morning!<br />
I'm excited about this post!! My sister in law is expecting her first baby at the end of May which means I am expecting my first nephew!! I was overjoyed to design her baby shower invitations and matching elements for her baby shower.<br />
<br />
She selected "Jake" bedding by Lambs and Ivy.<br />

<br />
I stockpile paper, ribbon and other supplies!<br />
I can't go into a craft store without buying several things I don't need at the moment just because they are on sale and I might need them someday.<br />
I even save the scraps of paper from other projects because you never know when I am going to need it.<br />
My intention is to make something with all of the extra paper and ribbon - I just haven't gotten around to it - Until now!!!<br />
I have decided that I can't allow myself to buy anything new until I deal with the pile of scrap that has become my craft room!!<br />
<br />
First things first - assemble piles of like paper<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhWegC-nk5HgrbuT6TnUJXD-zUb03Z33EMBxW3vJD_1REl10wuJJCs3lzh3xc18_Clxo8MNbkL5hy5H-cs4e7eDiiWNaXfVQp2lnpkMxRjcspxeAcwqgakrQ8o-rm_lxaViTBd90Y7n6ve/s1600/IMG_2104.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhWegC-nk5HgrbuT6TnUJXD-zUb03Z33EMBxW3vJD_1REl10wuJJCs3lzh3xc18_Clxo8MNbkL5hy5H-cs4e7eDiiWNaXfVQp2lnpkMxRjcspxeAcwqgakrQ8o-rm_lxaViTBd90Y7n6ve/s320/IMG_2104.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
Next step - use the pile of scrap to make new beautiful things!!<br />
Let's start with this pretty paper that I used to make these cards several years ago!!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVI4F_uerqBVgDTQBF49TJ0w3ZZf5WSeOjLcDe5atVyE13PT4meKJmxE8ajp5MiUIwrvxHYh4uAzYoSJjqJEt_S7Ldkg2jqkkSLNOARYxH9uaz6NNqhyPxr2ioO1Zm-fTmSAHNq2jQPKS/s1600/Bobbie+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVI4F_uerqBVgDTQBF49TJ0w3ZZf5WSeOjLcDe5atVyE13PT4meKJmxE8ajp5MiUIwrvxHYh4uAzYoSJjqJEt_S7Ldkg2jqkkSLNOARYxH9uaz6NNqhyPxr2ioO1Zm-fTmSAHNq2jQPKS/s320/Bobbie+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Pretty little pile of scrap:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I took this paper and some matching solid bluish turquoise paper and I made these:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I really used up as much of the paper as I possibly could:</div>

Just recently - this awesome soap company <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Castleco">Castleco</a> asked if I could do some made to order cards for her holiday packaging! I was thrilled to take on the challenge! She gave me a basic idea of some categories that the cards could fit in (IE: Gift for boss, etc) and I ran with it. I came up with several designs and sent her pictures of everything giving her the option to choose what she liked best!<br />
<br />
These are mini cards that fit into 2.5 x 2.5 envelopes that were included in the package -<br />
Here's what she got:<br />

<br />
Recently someone asked if I could make a banner that matched one of my invitation designs and I excitedly told them I could! I knew this was the kick in the pants I needed to finally get some banners in my shop!!<br />
<br />
So this is just the beginning - but I plan on designing much more!<br />

I have many exciting projects in the works and can't wait to share the next 100 and beyond with you!<br />
Thank you all for your love and support!!Happy Hound Creativehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18178697111044745150noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326246106951907074.post-13447694639786491262010-10-20T06:45:00.000-07:002012-08-02T04:56:17.558-07:00Tangled up in Ribbon!Well hello there Bloggy land......I've once again neglected my blog!! Boo Hiss!!<br />
<br />
Hello - my name is Kirby and I am a ribbon-a-holic!<br />
<br />
I just can't get enough of it! I can't go into a Michael's without leaving with some ribbon, even if I don't need it. I have a hoarders mentality when it comes to the stuff - "I don't need 5 rolls of neon orange ribbon right now but it's on sale and someday I'm going to need it"!<br />
<br />
It's not the easiest stuff to organize either! I usually end up buying ribbon for a project only to find I had 7 rolls of it in my tangled ribbon mess!!<br />
<br />
Case in point:<br />

Emma has more blankets than she will ever use. The thing about these blankets is that they are all so big - I wanted her to have something that she could carry around - kind of like Linus.<br />
<br />
So (after seeing a beautiful and soft full sized blanket that she made) I asked my wonderful Etsy friend and Sneaker <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/JustForTheShellOfIt">Just for the Shell of It</a> if she could make a "Lovey" for my Emma.<br />
<br />
I am so glad I did.....<br />

I figure soon she'll be picking the theme to her parties (princesses, dora, etc) so I took this opportunity to pick a theme that I could run with. You know I love to plan parties!!<br />
<br />
After designing a lady bug invitation for a friends baby shower and she did not pick it as the final design. I knew I had to create the lady bug invitation for Emma's birthday and the Ladybug theme was born!!<br />
<br />
Here is the invitation I sent out:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI2ncD0XupojHJ-t8YPQcBt4J8OAsNJLKSLTdE0NZFrRLY38DYP0zeyEb8pt7xXZk-wQEf-_5cRipg43s0gKFawWoFVzdps3x-djyWeuUC-Gv_K8eLpVf2PCG-bcF6_PUfifOWIx-9JTP0/s1600/IMG_0398.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI2ncD0XupojHJ-t8YPQcBt4J8OAsNJLKSLTdE0NZFrRLY38DYP0zeyEb8pt7xXZk-wQEf-_5cRipg43s0gKFawWoFVzdps3x-djyWeuUC-Gv_K8eLpVf2PCG-bcF6_PUfifOWIx-9JTP0/s320/IMG_0398.JPG" /></a></span><br />

I had it in my head that I would create most of the paper decorations myself and try to get most of the other party items from Etsy. I then got crazy busy and ended up relying on wonderful Etsy artists for most everything!<br />

There are a few wonderful rules to accepting the award and they are as follows:<br />
<br />
Thank and link back to the person that gave you the award. Share 7 things about your self. Pass the award to 9 fellow bloggers that inspire you. Let them know about the award. :-)<br />
<br />
7 Things about me...<br />
1. I love football!!! I participate in fantasy football and devote my Sunday's in the Fall/early Winter to watching my Broncos! I can't WAIT for football to start back up!!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; line-height: 20px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. I was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Some people think that is a different country.<br />
3.I have a thing for animals - especially dogs and will usually cry at sad and even happy stories about dogs!<br />
4. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up<br />
5. I have a craft room and it is a complete disaster. Didn't someone say that Einstein was surrounded by a huge mess all the time!?<br />
6.I am currently a domestic engineer and it is by far the hardest job I have ever had......and the most rewarding!<br />
7. I LOVE beer! And I don't drink it to get drunk, I enjoy a good beer. I like to discover new brands and flavors.<br />
<br />
And here are the 9 bloggers I'm passing it on to: (not in any particular order)</span></span><br />
