I recieved my 2nd package from the Strumpets Crumpets Valentine Swap yesterday! My other swap partner was Jenny of Everyday is a Holiday. She is an amazing artist! Her style is vintage sweets/bakery. I love all the pink & blues in her work!
She sent me a few prints and blank cards. I loved everything! She sells her prints & other products featuring her artwork in her shop, Everyday is a Holiday!
It is yet another snow day here! It is pretty crazy. This is the second week I haven't worked at the food bank. I feel like I haven't been there in forever. According the the weather channel it looks like it is supposed to warm up soon so maybe the mountains of snow will start melt so this town can go back to our normal schedule!
It hasn't been bad though. I have enjoyed watching the snow come down and how the town has seemed to have slowed down. I have spent this morning in my Grinch pajamas & red slippers, listening to some Jeremy Larson while doing some crocheting. It's been so nice & cozy!
A couple days ago I recieved my first package from the Valentine Swap by Strumpets Crumpets. I actually ended up with two partners, I'm not sure if it was an accident or not but it was fine with me!
This one is from Karla of The Itsy Bitsy Spider. She is a crocheter as well and she sent these cute little gumdrop mice! Aren't they the cutest? If you would like to make some of these for yourself, she is selling the pdf pattern for these in her shop here.
Remember that flag bunting I made last week during our last big storm?
It was so much fun to make that I have been making more triangles for more of them. Right now they are being blocked. I made the turquoise one out of one my handspun yarn.
I love the texture the handspun gives! I need to spin some more so I can make more flags!
I'm loving all the hearts and reds & pinks this Valentine season! Being married, Valentine's Day is even more magical. I feel like this time brings back the feelings of when we were first dating! I love that giddy fuzzy feeling when you first fall in love!
I want to show you a little something I made for my husband. I made a tag for his present using the idea from Elsie's blog here. It's a sketch of us in the park when we were first dating. I love this picture and I am super happy with the way it turned out!
And here is a super cute video that is perfect for Valentine's Day! It's by Pomplamoose. I love love love their music!
