Winner, Floss and Exciting News



The amazingly talented Courtney made a collage of all my Tell Your Story pages for me!!! I've been wanting to make one of these but the photo editing site I used has the worst collages (cuts out most of the pic). Thanks so much Courtney. Now I just need to upload pics of Janel's Journal Challenge.

the winner is..*drumroll please*



Congrats Amy!!!! You'll get an e-mail either tonight or tomorrow with the class info :)

Yesterday I went to JoAnn's and stocked up on some craft stuff. I went a little crazy with the DMC floss and didn't realize until I reached the checkout counter just how much I had been throwing in my cart. I got captivated by the colors and realize now how many hours it will actually take to wrap all this thread...... Anyone want to wrap this... anyone?? *crickets*



I had a little photo shoot today and made a cute DMC Floss heart :)



♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I also scored this amazing handmade fabric. Each square was stitched. Handmade fabrics are quite expensive, thank goodness for coupons... I can't wait to make something gorgeous out of it. I know I'll be using it to cover a journal and possibly making a pillow out of it too!!

Which leads me to some exciting news. I was brainstorming last night with my instax BFF and I am super excited to announce I have a new line coming to the Pixies and Bears shop. I'm working on it all this weekend (in between the fawn plushie orders) and should be able to show some of the collectibles next week!!!! It's going to be super cute so keep checking back for updates!!

Weather permitting there will be a photo-shoot this weekend!!! yay!!!! Off to work!!

xoxo,
Lindsay
