Some Little Goodies
August 30th, 2010
Monica’s baby shower is just about a month away, and knowing that just about everything we need or will use at the baby shower is going to be handmade by me, I’ve been diligently working to get things done. Yesterday, I punched out these cute little change purses that we’ll giveaway as prizes at the shower:
This was the first time I used the vintage orange and red poppy material I picked up at the start of summer. I think I’m going to have to make a dress or something with this lovely fabric!
And as I was finishing up these little purses, I caught Mr. Bruce doing what he always does, looking adorable and cuddly amongst the disarray of fabric.
I still need to share with you all of the lovely dresses that I made this summer! I promise to share soon!
Ahoy, me Hearties!

My good friend, Monica, is expecting a boy this November and she asked me and two other lovely ladies to host her baby shower. I L-O-V-E parties and party planning, so I obviously dove right in! Well, it’s no secret that Monica loves pirates (and secretly thinks she is a pirate!). Once she announced she was having a boy, it was settled – we would be throwing a pirate themed baby shower! And the first thing on my to do list was to create unique invitations for the shower.
After several drafts, redos, and some final tweaking, this is what I came up with!
Congratulations!

My beautiful cousin, Wendy, got married over the fourth of July weekend last month. For her wedding gift, I made her ring bearer pillow. She just sent me the link to her wedding photos, and they are absolutely STUNNING! So I contacted the photographer, Wally, from Wally Spice Photography to see if I could share some of the beautiful pictures from the wedding, and of my pillow, of course, haha. He was gracious enough to send me some photos to share with you all. Take a look!
This picture is of my Uncle Dave, Aunt Yvonne, cousin Wendy, her husband Kevin, and cousin Leah. I love this picture! I have such a beautiful extended family!
Some more lovely photos of my ring bearer pillow:
And I just love these pictures of the ring bearer and flower boy, simply adorable.
I so wish I had been able to attend the wedding. It looked like such a beautiful, and memorable event. This last photo is my favorite, just stunning.
To see more photos of my cousin’s wedding, and other amazing work by Wally Spice Photography, visit their website here: wallyspicephotography.com/
Congratulations again to Wendy and Kevin – love you both!

I’ve been working on TONS of projects lately, but just can’t seem to find the time to post about them! That will change (I’m hoping) after this week! Anyways, I just finished up two orders that I wanted to share with you guys:
A new set of tile coasters
And another tennis bag! But this time, in blue.
I’ve also finished 4 dresses that I can’t wait to show you! And, I’ve been working on putting together a pirate themed baby shower for my friend, Monica. I can’t wait to share all of the fun stuff with you!
Until next time!
It’s a BLUEPRINT BLOWOUT!

So first I want to apologize for being MIA recently. I find that summer is the only time of the year that I actually feel like doing nothing, and laying by the pool. I must say, it has been quite nice!
I do have a handful of tutorials coming your way shortly, but in the meantime I would like to announce the first ever BLUEPRINT BLOWOUT auction!
My crafts have slowly but surely taken over most of my living room over the past couple of months. And in an attempt to get everything organized, I am putting all of my inventory up for auction!
