Awesome News!

Today I officially enrolled back into college! So this means, by January I need to have text book funds, I am not there yet. So I am going to be listing like crazy on my etsy shop to attain this goal. I will have a christmas kit real soon. As always, at a great value and free shipping. I will be gathering some items to do some blog candy to celebrate this real soon. This means a lot to me because I am a working single mom, I had to drop out of college when I was pregnant. I have been able to get some classes in over the past few years but last year I had to drop again. So now, I am really pumped!

Tweet mini

I made this pink mini kit for a friend, she wanted to make one but didnt feel creative. So I assembled the book, papers and cover and just included flowers and embellishments. She loved that idea--she got to feel creative by only doing half the work. She loves hot pink and fell in love with this mini.
