My first try making a Victorian tunnel card. It's a Cinderella theme, which was my favorite fairytale, and now my oldest child loves it too. This will be her birthday party invitation. Now only a dozen more to make!

My kids and I have a yearly birthday tea party for my Mom. We get out a nice tea pot and tea cups. My husband plays waiter to us while we pick out different bite sized foods to eat. I make a coconut cream pie for her that her mother would make when she was a child. (A belated Happy B-Day to you!)

It brings me joy and I like knowing that it might bring others joy. It's like having your favorite food or recipe that you want to see others enjoy too, because you just want to spread that kind of happiness to others.

Something that grew from a single flower while trying new art supplies. I was originally looking to cut it up for paper design, but I decided to print it first and keep the original.
