Oh the joys of being a woman.

I am totally having one of those premenstrual, crampy, moody, acne filled days. Thank you monthly friend. Thank yoouuuuuuuuu.

In other news, Happy May Day!

Depending on how I feel later tonight, I will try to post something. *hugs*

Easter Shopping, Easter Crafts, Easter Treats, Easter Fun!

Hope you're all having a wonderful Easter with your loved ones and that the Easter Bunny has been generous to you this year!  (◕‿◕✿)

Over the next two days I will be sharing with you some of my Easter goodies and crafts, as well as an 'Easter Look' I've been working on. If I have some time, I'll try to make a little Easter sketch too. 

Also - tonight is the big night for the contest draw! Wahoo!

So without further ado, I present to you:

PART 1 - SHOP like a fool

I basically raided my local dollar store for treats and art supplies. 

I love chocolate - a LOT - but I seriously don't know what I'm going to do with all of this.
Looks like I will have to have some friends over to chow down.

Cadbury Mini Eggs - a crucial component in Easter fun

Mmm mini chocolate cupcakes with pastel pink frosting. Yum!

Easter crafts, faux flowers, chicks, eggs, and more!

Glitter Egg decorations

Beautiful faux flower Orchids

And finally, some classy photos from forever ago, with me and Lisa dressed to kill. 

Stay tuned!

Happy New Years!

Happy New Year Everyone! May all of your hopes and dreams come true in 2012! *hugs* 

Here are a few little photos of my Christmas tree this year.

 What are some of your hopes and dreams for 2012? What are some things you're glad to leave behind in 2011? 

Some of my hopes & dreams:

• I hope to move into a house in the Spring/Summer (I could really use an extra room to turn into a studio)
• I hope I get into some big craft shows, that would be so much fun!
• I would also love to make my own Faerie Garden (which I may blog about later, and include random inspirational internet photos) but I live in a small condo so there's no space for a strawberry or pumpkin patch :P
• If finances allow, I'd love to take an Alaskan cruise in August, and see the native towns along the way, and if I'm lucky, see and photograph the Aurora Borealis. 
• I'm also going to try and stick to my 'eat healthier & get exercise resolution'
