I have some fun new products to share with you today....these are from Crafty Secrets and I adore them....I can show you 2 that I've created and if you check out the Crafty Secrets blog, you'll see many more. They are fun....and completely irresistible.
This was created with Crafty Secrets Baby Girl Vintage Postcard Kit...this kit includes these beautiful images, chipboard, and coordinating stamps. You can read more about this kit here.
This is from the Storytime Vintage Postcard Kit which includes these images, chipboard, and a coordinating stamp set as well. I love these.
Summer has been so wonderful...my house is filled with happy cousins and I know they are making memories they'll always cherish...I'm so grateful my little one has so many loved ones surrounding her...we are up to 26 cousins right now with 2 more due very soon....crazy wonderful.
I have to share a picture of something that made me smile this morning....something I can't wait to make with my beloved fabric scraps. From Martha Stewart Living....they are the cutest things ever....the wheels are turning right now...but I must get done what I need to get done first....I don't see why we can't have cereal for dinner :)
Have a happy Wednesday.
Melis
Hello there my little Tomatuh! I am head over heels over your Crafty Secrets creations. Simply precious! ...and those little tomato pin cushions! well they just take my breath away. My mother used to have one with a small strawberry strung from the top. Mine is just a plain red tomato, but I adore your assorted fabrics.

Lovely creations full of cuteness, like your martha stewart project, what a fun way to use up scraps.

Oh my! Your baby postcards are absolutely beautiful!!! (I put mine on my blog today too.....but yours puts mine to shame!)

Oh how cute that project is Miss Melissa!!! I don't know why I always have this compulsion to put my nose on the screen to see EXACTLY how you do what you do! LOL. That reminds me - I need to polish my screen, it's getting a little hard to see these days ;-).
Those pincushions are WAY too cute for words. I LOVE those! LOVE 'EM!!!.
It's no wonder you are building another house what with all the cousins that Miss S has. You need to just hand one of your houses over to the kids to play in!!
I'm always so glad that you find the time to create and inspire me. I know that a lot of the time it's the last thing I want to do after a day's work. You are THE BOMB!!!!

Oh Melissa,
You've done it again!! These Baby Vintage
postcards are so beautiful and sweet. This would be so great to have hanging on Baby's door, or on a wall somewhere in her room. I love Crafty Secrets too. the tiny tomatoes are Fabulous! When you get yours made, will you post them here or on your sewing site?
I just got a sewing machine for my birthday in June from my DH. I am looking forward to getting back into sewing, (it's been yrs) What is the name of your sewing blog? I'd love to visit that too.
Hugs to you,
Heidi Kilgore
