"Fashion" Wall Decor

We rearranged Olivia's room the other day so I thought I better finish a project that I've been wanting to do for her dress up area. Didn't realize how cute the Paisley cartridge was until I started using it. Lots of girly stuff. Everything except the high heel shoes and patterned purse were used with the Paisley cartridge.

Snow Day

In January 22 last year we got quite a treat here in Yucaipa in the form of a big snowfall (big for our area that is). I made sure to take lots of pictures. How many chances would I get to scrap a snow day?

I bought paper online specifically for these layouts. It's Bo Bunny's Serenade collection. It's beautiful paper. Heavy cardstock with lots of glitter. I still have about 8 pages more to do for this snow day so I'll post them as they are done.

Easter Bunny Cake

Easter and spring will be here before you know it. I wanted to share a cake that I made a few years ago for an Easter party. I used a Wilton shaped pan, a boxed white cake mix and homemade buttercream frosting. The ears and eyes were made out of pink and green taffy, rolled out in sugar. I added some black gel icing on the eyes. Next time I would dye some frosting black since the gel was a little runny. His nose is a red jelly bean and his teeth white pillow mints. This was a good beginner cake for me because the icing wasn't supposed to look smooth and there wasn't any decorating with icing tips
