Back to Life....Back to Reality!

Okay....Deep breath....Count to 10 and start! It has been a long time since I've updated my blog and I apologize! If you have kids, you can understand I'm sure! We have been back to school (and my part-time job) since August and somehow I've missed September! How did this happen? Well, my daughter is in competitive dance and my son is in karate and hip-hop. They keep me at my second home at the dance studio five days a week. Karate thank goodness is just two days a week right now. I think next year my son will be able to start sparring (whatever that entails).
Also, on another note, my husband and I started a course through the church that I work at. It is called ALPHA which is a course where you learn about the basics of Christianity and religion. We have tried to live our lives through being good Christians and teaching our children about Christ, but since we've moved to Florida, we have never really settled down into a church and called it home. Every Tuesday night after two hours of dance, we blaze through the drive-thru for our children and drive madly to the church. It's been an interesting and eye-opening experience for both me and my husband and we are learning alot. I appreciate your patience and hope to have more soon!

Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Ballet,  Dancer I wanted to try something challenging and I saw a picture of a ballerina that I thought might be the one. Well, here it is....I used a combination of beehive and regular quilling. This is in honor of my daughter turning 13 today! Happy Birthday!!! Quilled Ballerina Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Pointe Shoe

My daughter took Pointe this year at dance and being the end of the year, I wanted to make a special thank you card for the staff.  I drew the outline for the shoe and then filled the spaces with 1/8 width quilling paper.

Another Ornament for Christmas

I found some more ornaments in my closet of craft stuff while cleaning this summer.  Obviously my cleaning didn't get very far being so delighted with my new discovery!  I found a cute clip art a while back of some holly leaves, so I thought about how I could do it inside the ornament.  After a few minutes, I was ready to start.  After gluing two leaves together, I gently pushed them inside.  I then used a plastic butter knife to keep them lying flat and let them dry.  I then added the third leaf.
