Surprise parties and homemade cards.

On saturday we hosted a little surprise birthday party for out friend Ben. The boys were having fun playing mario kart on the wii. It was fun to all get together. Happy Birthday Ben!

I was also asked to make a couple cards for our ward craft day and here is what I came up with. I decided to do a thank you card and 2 Christmas cards since it is right around the corner.  This was pretty much my first real attempt at making cards and I am happy with them. Hopefully people in the ward will like them enough to want to make them! :)

My Project

Our lovely apartment here in Minnesota has lovely white walls. Since our new t.v. is a flat screen on a low stand there was a ton of white empty space above it. Wall art can get pretty pricey so I decided to make some of my own. About 30 bucks and half an hour later here is what I came up with. I really like it. I have never been an orange person, but love I these patterns.
