The theme this week on I ♥ Faces is smile and it has been such a long time since I participated I wanted to make sure I did this week!

We took a friend out to the feedlot yesterday to play with the lambs and I got all of the kids to climb in the loading shoot for this fun picture. If you haven’t participated in any of the contests they are a lot of fun! Swing on over for a “smile” of your own!

Have a great week!

Charleston Tutu Feather Valentine’s day is fast approaching. Are you like me and find that so hard to believe? It seems life moves so quickly from day to day then when you throw in the holidays it is even faster!  I know many of you loved my Christmas photo prop post so much and I personally love hunting on Etsy so I thought I would do a valentine one as well.

The seller DearLillie has some of the most amazing items. This seller is working on opening a website and I am sure she will have even more amazing items to offer. I love that she has something for everyone, shirts for women, tutus for kids and everything in between. I have chosen to showcase one of her many tutu designs. This particular design features a beautiful feather waist.

Felt Heart Hair Clip - Feminine Heart PinkI am a sucker for anything cute for girls hair. I guess that comes with having three little girls. Although at this point noone wants me doing their hair … Baby Juice won’t keep anything in her hair and LoLo and The Bear are both of the mindset they are better at it than me! Wow, that went off track… and fast I might add!

At any rate, how about some  A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E hair clips? Oh my goodness are these just too cute! Felt So Sweet has some of the prettiest pretties (say that 10 times fast!)I have set my eyes on! (Please note this seller is located in Singapore).

Be Mine Little Valentine CocoonStop my heart, I am melting! No post would be complete without a cute infant in a cocoon and beanie I must say! If you have a new baby (or one on the way) you need to look at some photos of babies in these types of props. It is a small investment and will lead to some amazing photos. I’ll Be Yarned has amazing cocoons, beanies, bowls and even scarves! Pay her a visit and be prepared to melt!

boutique FUNKY FUN VALENTINE hair bow clipOk, back to the hair we go! I love hair bows (you probably already figured that out). I like ‘em funky – I like ‘em cute – I like ‘em colorful – I just like ‘em! If you are looking for hair bows and Jane is the place to shop. This is my absolute favorite Valentine bow in her store.

Once you have purchased your perfect props and taken those amazing snap shots hurry over to PCB and purchase one of our fun Valentine photo cards! Have fun checking out Etsy, my favorite place for adorable handcrafted items!

XOXO -

Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a card from my family to you. At times it may seem impossible and we all forget about the important things in our day to day endeavors, especially when times are tough. Take a moment and remember what life is about and what keeps us grounded.

I have so many thing to be grateful for this year; a roof over my head, food on my table,  a wonderful husband, three amazing children and so much more! I hope during these busy days you are also able to step back and recall what makes your life so special.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas this year from my family to yours!

Blessing!

I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with SaDonna for over a year. She first came to me when I owned AAO and I helped her setup her website www.nannyjosboutique.com so you can imagine how excited I was to have her purchase her Christmas cards from my new site.

Her photo is proof that you don’t need the perfect picture to achieve the card you have always dreamed of. When SaDonna submitted the photo she wasn’t thrilled with it but couldn’t get everyone to agree on taking a new one. I told her no worries! Did you know photo editing is free with your purchase? I can’t work miracles but I sure do my best!

The picture she was less then happy with is a little on the dark side but my goodness is her daughter adorable!

Have a great day!

I had the joy of completing a lovely birthday card for a very special 2 year old little girl. The customer wanted a single sided 5 x 5 square card with 5 x 7 envelopes to save on postage. This design was a request and will be available on the site once the birthday invitations are made available. If you need a similar design right now please let us know! We are very happy to make one for you.

Have a wonderful day!

I have opened up the site. I am disappointed in myself for not getting everything added I had hoped. Given the computer problems I had and everyone being sick I really shouldn’t complain. This is the fourth site I have started from scratch and I must say it is both rewarding and a lot of work.

Without further delay please stop in and visit. There are some adorable baby announcements and fun Christmas cards available. I can’t wait to get everything added, Maree has joined me on this project and there are some amazing illustrations just waiting to be used in your cards.

The product line will be extended beyond the current offering to include:

  • Stickers
  • Invitations
  • Save the Date
  • Note Pads
  • Personal Stationery
  • Thank You Cards
    & more!

If you have followed me in the past when I owned Auction Add-Ons you know I put a lot of work into my projects and this one will be no different. I welcome all of your comments and suggestions and look forward to working with you!
