matryoshka ornaments (:

Lovely Sara of The Handmade Gift Guide included my sweet lil' matryoshka ornaments in her blog post today! (: (: Thanks, Sara! (: I have to admit that I have one of these little ladies hanging on my very own Christmas tree and I must say, she is rather beautiful (:

our glorious snow house

Jason built this last weekend for Isabella's birthday (: It was at first a perfect fit for her and she could stand it in perfectly without bopping her head on the ceiling. A few wet snows and some rain and warm days have since taken place and now it's more Jude's size! What a lovely thing to peer out your kitchen window in the morning and see a snow house sitting in the back yard (:

Blog features!

This week I was fortunate enough to see my work featured in two blog posts!

Here is the first, shown on the blog, 'A little framework'. A lovely collection of matryoshkas ~ Mine is in the bottom left corner,, one of my Matryoshka art prints!

The second feature takes place at Zemphira Scatter Art! Sara is a fellow etsy seller and has some rather delightful wares in her shop (: She bought these two owl ornaments and was pretty pumped about them so she wrote a blog post! Yay!

Greeting cards!

In the shop!

Yay!

 They are blank on the inside with an embroidered 'frame' around the image. So pretty! ^__^

100 % Handmade, baby! Woo hoo!

New artwork!

I have added two new art prints to my etsy shop! I love it when I finish a new creative project, and how much better when it's two! Firstly, here is my Blue Bird print:

And here is my Mama Tree and Baby Tree print. It is very much inspired by my daily life as a mother and my great love of nature. I love trees. They are great, grand beings, full of spirit.
