Get Married Update (because you asked)

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

The show people want a few pictures & sketches by mid-October. Which leads me to believe my segment won’t air until quite late in the Get Married season. They start this Monday, 7:30 am eastern time (& 5:30 am Mountain time. really. Can’t somebody get Lifetime to change that for me?) [...]

An ordinary day in Colorado (ahem…you should live here)

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

This is why I live here. Well, o.k. I live here b/c of Kevin’s job. But really, once you’re here, there’s just nothing that compares.
We woke up this morning & noticed that during broad daylight, the moon was still shining. It was hard to get a picture of, but here’s the best [...]

An upfront apology to Kathleen.
Remember my 2 months of camo earlier this year? Perhaps no, but this might explain why said project was not as big of a leap from my usual MO as one would think.

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

Rachael 7-7-07

Wednesday, September 12th, 2007

I just got in some pictures from Rachael’s wedding. The pictures come courtesy of Dusty Demerson. (thanks Dusty!) I love the detail shot. Handmade flowers are one of my specialties. Look for them in one of my coming collections (most likely the 3rd collection, currently scheduled for release in summer ‘08.) [...]

Sleeping arrangements

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

Does anyone know how to de-5 year old your bed?  We’ve had Quentin with us all night every night for the past couple of weeks.  I’m tired.

Carrie

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

This is Carrie, one of my August brides. I’ll have several more pics of Carrie next week and also of her four bridesmaids, whose dresses I also made.
The picture below is the one Carrie originally brought me. Most of my custom brides bring me pictures and I make either that dress for them [...]
