I made mini-album with photos of my family. Only for myself. It’s really small, I can hide it in my bag and have always with me.
This time I didn’t use colorful papers – this is the autumn album.
Papers from “9th Wave” fit excellent to the autumn mood, as good as some stickers and paper elements from “Hopefully”. I also used lots of different mists.

My sewing project

Usually, I sew for my children or for my friends but, now, I decided to sew just for me. This photo was perfect for Domestic Goddess collection.

I had been dreaming of a kayak for awhile as the Atlantic Ocean is my backyard!! In August of 2012 I finally got one and it was everything I imagined it would be. It is so peaceful and relaxing and is truly good for the soul!

I love coffee but I try not to drink to much during the day. Usually it is a couple of cups with sugar and milk. Sometimes I combine drinking coffee with making a face mask 🙂
