sugarville...

sugarville is released tonight at midnight at kenner road...i made the little trees above using the vintage player piano roll that was part of this month's kit...i really love how they turned out...the paper curls just perfectly after being wound around that spool for all of those years... 

and more glitter :)  can't forget the glitter :)

& thank you so much for your comments to my request for help on the last post....the winner of the RAK is Jennifer!

i'm going to try to post some tips here @ sewing & color & flower making here in the coming weeks (along with some great tutorials i've found around :)    so stay tuned :)

& here is the friday fill ins for today :)

1.  Please feel free to give me any great recipes you have.
2.  When I pick my fresh rosemary I can't help sniffing it occasionally.
3.  My favorite thing to cook is soup...i LOVE soups, especially with fresh french bread.
4. Hugs from my kid & mike are something I can't get enough of.
5.  That's the thing I love most about them...they love me just because i am me.
6. The "runner" couple on Amazing Race always makes me think to myself, what the heck?  Seriously, that Terrance is a nut.
7.  And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to reading my favorite magazines, tomorrow my plans include taking the kids to the NY Red Bulls day at the soccer fields and Sunday, I want to make a pot of chilli & maybe some cornbread!

hope you have a fantastic friday!!
