Welcome to my "Magical" Tea Party!

Thank You for coming, and thank you to Faerie Vanessa
for hosting such a magical Tea party,
mad or not...we shall have fun!
Look! the guest are flying in!

Faerie Queen is dressed in her finest spring outfit, waiting to welcome you!
(faeries enjoy fluttering on a summer breeze)
So put on your Faerie slippers and moonstone necklace and join the fun!

The faeries have been very busy straightening up their little home.
Such a delightful place it is!

Look at all those wonderful knooks and crannies...

Faerie Jasper is polishing some new buds, making them sparkling bright!
perfect timing as the guest are arriving as we speak!
(Hold hands, let us sing and play...)

Faerie Silk had been busy in her wee little sewing room creating wonderful Tea Party garments!
(her magic mirror reflects back only smiles)

Faerie Mary has been busy as a little faerie bee... whipping up some scrumptious Faerie Cakes!

Don't these look tantalizing? She baked them fresh just for you!
(find this recipe here)
(stir, stir, bake, bake, help me create a faerie cake!)

(and cupcake decoration tutorial here!)

The party chairs have all been set out....

Come, come! Says the Queen...take a ride on the Faerie Carousel...

Jump aboard your favorite winged friend....

...and let the wind spin you around....

...and around.... :)
(up, up, round and round, dancing feet don't touch the ground...)

"Magical" Tea Parties call for plenty of song and dance with friends of all sizes.
(play the harp, bang the drum, faerie music makes you hum...)
I hope you are enjoying this wonderful day!
Look! Faerie King Teddy Bear has joined our party!
Let's have some tea and more Faerie cakes!
(berries juicy, cookies sweet, faeries sing before they eat!)

I'm Back! ...sorta...


I'm really sorry for my lack of posting on this blog.
My Mother in law, Susan had been really sick for the last few months
and took a spill a couple of weeks back which landed her in the hospital.
We found out that she had pancreas cancer and it was terminal. While she was in the hospital, I got most of my tears out.
I was a mess. I also discovered my "true" friends and bonded closer to family.

She came home from the hospital to her home which was ready with a bed and hospice things.
I visited her a couple days later and while she could not talk with her mouth, she spoke with her eyes when I told her how much I loved her and thanked her for my husband Brian. I said my goodbyes.
Dyllan came with me the next day and whispered that he loved her and he also said goodbye and she smiled.
I sat in her room that day with Dyllan, making wire art together.
I like to think she was glad we were there.

A couple of days later she got worse and then a week later, last Friday , June 18th, she passed away in the morning.
I'm still freaky sad.
I'm gonna really miss her.
Now some of my creative mojo has hit a speed bump,even as I've been pushing myself extra hard to finish things due at the end of the month.

So I'm back. Sorta.

I have tons of things to share with you, but not enough oomph to write with, you know?
The above photo is from this post where I had a tutorial and a giveaway.
The below photo is what I made for the giveaway.

I just wanted to have something to share with you as I know it's been awhile.

Wednesday is the last day of kindergarten for Dyllan so this week is crazy.
I won't have another post for you until this Saturday June 26th, which is the day of Vanessa's Mad Tea Party!
I've been planning this for weeks and am totally unprepared (due to current situations), but I promise it will be magical on my end with plenty of surprises to share and giveaway!

So please come back for the fun!
(and thank you for your support) :)

I have been in a funk lately. ALL sorts of stuff going on that I have no control over and I'm sorry if it has effected my blogging. I'll be back on Friday with some cute Fathers Day projects to share. The above image was made by Jessica of Zakka Life...and she has them for the whole week!
See you soon!
