Get your father's day gifts here!

you are the best dad 

I love the title that Tara of Waterwaif came up with for the treasury she curated which features my father's day card pictured above. "Get your father's day gifts here," is what she titled this wonderful collection which was featured on the front page of etsy on Thursday, May 12th. I owe a huge thank you to Tara for including me in such a great curation which you can see below:

Tiffany's and Chocolates...

Treasury time! I think this is such a great theme created by MQuin on etsy. What is better than Tiffany's and Chocolates! I am so excited that my baby love boxed flat notes were included in such a stunning and yummy collection!

Baby Love Boxed Flat Notes

Baby Shower Gift

I really enjoyed knitting this baby blankie and booties for a special baby shower gift. I took pictures of the items just before wrapping them up. The pictures were taken with my iphone so the quality is not the best but I still wanted to share them with you.

Happy Hanukkah

A huge thank you to Good Florist Design who created this lovely Hanukkah treasury which includes my Lights of Hanukkah Greeting Card. This amazing treasury was featured on the front page of Etsy.com!

Gift from the Sea

I am a huge fan of the book "A Gift from the Sea" by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. The following quote from this amazing book inspired me to create a treasury which I have included below.


"The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy, or too impatient. One should lie empty, open, choiceless as a beach - waiting for a gift from the sea." 
-Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Golden Yellow and Blue

I was so thrilled to find my from the bride and groom notes featured in this divine treasury below. Don't you just love the name of the treasury - cute as a button - and everything in it!

Rachel of Paper Path not only created the treasury above but also this stunner of a treasury below called the smell after the rain featuring miss you. A huge thank you to Rachel for including my cards with such lovely items!

Congratulate the New Mom!

Looking for a lovely way to welcome that new little boy into the world and congratulate the new mom too? This adorable card is a perfect fit!

Beautiful Day

It's a beautiful day here in the Northeast!

Red Barn

In the Kitchen

Old bottles are vintage items that I am particularly fond of. These have a place of honor on my kitchen windowsill. I adore the different shades of glass that these beauties come in – especially the blues.

Toby

Dabbling with acrylics and practicing pet portraits I decided to create one in honor of my childhood pet Toby. This painting is dedicated to his memory and gentle nature.

Today on Scoutie girl Tara posted about gifts of enthusiasm which I think is fabulous to ponder - gifts that require "no bows... just you." For me the ocean and all it's blues contrasted with the soft sand is what I am crazy about! I created the following treasury with that in mind entitled "Of the Sea."
