So, the other day while I was out purchasing yardage for some current projects I happened upon this super adorable flannel Holiday Penguin fabric! These cute whimsical Penguins are rather large in scale, and I couldn't resist some yardage! It brought back the memory of my first born daughter and I making penguins from her thumb and pointer finger with paint on a cermamic planter for a teacher's gift.

You can paint these adorable penguins on anything, and what makes them so unique is that they are made from your own child fingerprints..which any grandparent or loved one adores! :0)

Fingerprint Penguins
You will need:
Some sort of blank for your art work ie. ceramic pot, blank greeting card, wood ornament blank, the options are endless! Use your imagination!
Black acrylic paint
White acrylic paint
Red Acrylic paint
Orange Acrylic paint
Black Sharpie pen.
Squeeze a small amount of black paint onto a paper plate. Press your child's thumb into the paint and firmly place it on the area you would like for your "penguin" to be. Allow black paint to dry. Once the black paint has thoroughly dried, squeeze a small amount of white paint onto a paper plate. Taking the child's pointer finger or pinky, place it in the paint and press child's finger in the center of the black thumbprint creating the "belly and face of the penguin.
If your child is too young to fill in the rest of the details, paint a small red triangle on the head of your penguin and allow to dry, you may paint the white trim once the red has dried. Paint orange feet at the base of the penguin and a beak on it's face. Allow to dry.
Now taking a sharpie pen make two small dots for eyes and a smile if you like off the sides of the beak! Now your child has their own penguin!
If you really want to get creative, you can create a "scene" for your penguin. For example snowy hills, pine trees, igloos... let your child decide for more fun!

Boo! to you!

Today is my "Un-Birthday"... is it yours too???

I celebrated entering into my mid 30's this past Sunday. My daughter celebrated her sweet 16 only 13 days prior. She had an Alice in Wonderland party and it was a riot! All of her friends were assigned a character from the story in their own interpretaion, and I had no idea that they would participate so nicely! Anyhow, my fabulous Sister in Law, Michelle and my brother threw her the party and made this fabulous cake! Michelle has already been enlisted for weddings, baby showers and other parties. I am in awe of her creativity.

The "Mad Hatter","Iris Flower" and "Alice"


"Alice" with "Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum" ;)

It's Pixie Dust Fairy, Tink!!!


I had fun with little Ely capturing her as Tinkerbell, her "favoritist" fairy!
This sweet rendition of Tinkerbell is not a new design of mine, however I have incorporated a fabulous 100% Cotton pixie dust marble lime fabric featuring "pixie dust" glitter:0)
The bodice and straps are completely lined.
Unfortunately, I could not capture the glitzy bling of the fabric, in this photo however it is undoubtedly sparkly!!
This set is available and has only been worn once for these modeling photos. It is a size 5T/6. If you are interested, please email me or watch for the listing starting early tomorrow.
Thank you!~ Angela

A "Spook-tacular" sight!

I just came in from a very busy fun filled weekend! I plan on posting much more in the coming week, but thought I'd share a fun image I captured while in line for "Nightmare Before Christmas" ride at Disneyland. I have to say it was quite fun!
They ended up closing the park early for a Sweet 16 Celebration event for Miley Cyrus. I couldn't believe how much they whooped it up for her. I was told that for 2009, Disney's whole theme is going to be "What will you celebrate?" and guests will be admitted in free on their birthday! I believe the event was sort of a kick off for that promotion. Anyhow, tons of little girls frolicked around the park in their Hannah Montana get ups! It was a fun sight to see all the excitement.



And a Happy Birthday to Miley ;0)
