Bridal Shower Monogram

Once they made it to their destination:

Butterfly Baby Shower

These are some of my favorites to date. Unfortunately, it has been cloudy all day, and very hard to get good pictures. For that reason, I am giving you pictures with a background, and in the very messy kitchen — with the faint hope you will be able to appreciate how pretty these turned out.

And people....with the recent acquisition of an airbrush, my life is forever changed. The pearl mist MAKES these butterflies.

Christmas 2017: PYO Cookie Gift Boxes

This has become an annual "thing" for all of the tiny humans in my life — and even though they are SO SIMPLE, these are easily my favorite cookies every time. I bought some new stencils this year, AND, instead of the messy paint palettes I usually make myself, now you can BUY them!!! They look so clean and professional.

I am strongly considering selling gift boxes of these for various occasions. But that is an endeavor for another day....in 2018.

UPDATE - the new paint palettes work great!

Christmas 2017: the Christmas cactus

The cutter came from Sweet Design Shoppe here.

Full disclosure...I ended up not loving these like I had hoped, and I am already brainstorming ideas to improve them for next time.

Christmas 2017: trees

I sure hope I am not the only one failing to multitask in preparing for Christmas this year. At some point I realized everything was packaged and I had not taken pictures (packaging = glare). As an added bonus, when you don't have a fancy photo set-up, late nights and bad weather mean you cannot get good lighting for pictures.

All of this to say, the trees were some of my favorites this year, and I have a very limited number pictures.
