White Wednesday #100

Today we celebrated one of my friends birthdays by taking her out for lunch. We tried a new place called SerendipiTea in Abbotsford. The decor is right up my ally, so I snapped a few photos to show you all for White Wednesday, since White Wednesday is also celebrating a special birthday. (BTW my friend is NOT 100!)
Lots of White everywhere. The food was delicious.

Simply Elegant.

China and Tea cups.

Leaded glass doors.

Advent Tags 13, 14 & 15

Yes, here I am, still working on my Christmas project. BUT I WILL BE DONE ON TIME!

I am currently working on tags number 18 & 19. Almost there! (Maybe I should decorate the tree next - lol) Not really.
These 3 tags have been my favorites so far. I really liked how they turned out.


I have to get them done soon, when the weather warms up, it will be time to garden again. And I have a big surprise (a new deck!) to show you all.
Happy White Wednesday!

Advent Tages 10 & 11

Advent Tags #8 and 9

I love this sweet wee birdie, the original had a window in the background, but I substituted it for a birdcage. I already had the Tim Holtz Sizzix Die and I don't seem to get to use it enough. The birdie is sitting on a tarnished, silver sugar spoon, softened with vintage music shred.

#9 was very simple. A copy of an old postcard, stamped; some beautiful ribbon from Patsy at Prairie Bird Boutique

(Patsy has amazing ribbon in her Etsy shop.)

Added to a Thrift Store photo frame.

Right now I am about half way through my Advent tags. I had no idea I would get that much done so quickly.

Happy White Wednesday. To see the other entries, go to my sidebar and click on Kathleen's site Faded Charm.

My New Bag

I wanted to share with you my fabulous, custom made burlap bag from Kellie at Bag Full Of Posies on Etsy. All the seams are finished, there is a pocket sewn inside for change or whatever. The bottom folds out so you can get the most inside you could ever imagine and the leather handles are just the right length for either over the shoulder or over your arm. Don't you just love it!

Of course the best part are the white and cream roses and the beautiful script font Kellie chose, it really says "Lady Pamela". Thanks Kellie.

Advent Tags #4, 6 and 7

First of all, I apologize that the photos came out in the wrong order. Once in awhile I have a problem with that. But I don't have the time to fix them this morning.

this is the close-up of Tag 7. I am not as happy with my angel wings, but they do not look too bad close up.

Advent Tag # 4

Look closely at the tiny fork photo hanger holding the child's picture. Something from my old stash of cardmaking supplies.

White Wednesday #89

Believe it or not this is the beginning of my first Christmas 2011 craft project. I am making an Advent Calendar so I thought that if I started in January, I just might finish in time for December. Maybe.

The instructions came from One Lucky Day

I was able to purchase them from their Etsy Shop.

This is the tag for Day 1.

Day 2

And Day 5.

I have had so much fun making the tags. I can make one up in an evening, once I have gathered up all the little bits. I am so grateful to these ladies for their gift of creativity. I hope to keep posting more tags as I get them finished.

And thanks again to Kathleen for hosting another great White Wednesday. You can find her link on my sidebar.
