Raspberry Cream Pie

Hello Everyone! Sorry for the delay in blogging-I am going to try and blog more often during the rest of 2012. :) Basically I was in a bit of a creative rut for a while and I also had a cold for a few weeks. I am feeling better now and I wanted to share the recipe for the raspberry cream pie my mom made for my birthday (feb 24th) this year. It was pretty tasty. Here's the link: Raspberry Cream Pie from Taste of Home

Fabric Yo-Yo Headbands Part 1

As you may have figured out from reading this blog, I love adding fabric yo yos to things. A while ago I decided to make some headbands with them. So, I made some fabric yo yos and then we tracked down some headbands with teeth in them. We found a bunch of satin, tulle, netting, ect. on sale after Halloween. So, we were able to get a bunch of small pieces of materials reasonable priced. :D Here's how the first three turned out. I love my new Christmas headband. It is so festive! I think all 3 turned out nice-The one with the purple and green tulle was a Christmas present for one of my cousins. :)

Christmas Cards..
