Step- By-Step: Creating a Custom Card

As I’ve posted before, I’ve recently been interested in creating custom note cards. There’s an endless amount of variety that can be drawn onto a blank card. I’ve mostly been drawing (no pun intended 😉 ) inspiration from flowers, vines, leaves, etc. The two cards above are some that I finished already. Today I thought I’d take you through the…

Continuing the Story: The Tender Years

Ciao! Today I’m sharing another book for Reading Wednesday: The ninth installment in the Love Comes Softly series. A book called The Tender Years. Let’s get started! Previous to our trip to a thrift store about a week ago, I had had no idea that this book even existed. I was looking over the bookshelves, when the name Janette Oke…

The Peach Shirt: Outfit #2

Hello again! Today I’ll be sharing an outfit I wore for peach picking a couple of weeks ago. 🙂 As you can see, this is the same shirt as in the church outfit I blogged last week. I was a little hesitant to post the same piece of clothing twice in a row, but then decided that it wasn’t that…

The Peach Shirt: Outfit #1

Hello again! Today I’ll be sharing another Summery, modest outfit for church. This was one of those great outfits that you picture in your head and then it actually works out in real life. I’ve thought up some others that haven’t worked out that well… 😉 Anyway, I had been trying to think of an outfit to wear this shirt…

Sketches: Seven Days of Art

Hello again! Today we’ll be taking a peak into one of the recently completed projects in my sketchbook. A week or so ago, I found a course on Craftsy that looked interesting. It was called Seven Days of Drawing, and it involved watching a short video everyday (well, in theory. Due to some busy days, I didn’t actually finish the…
