New to Sara's Scraps

So I have been back to listing on etsy( http://www.sarich215.etsy.com/). I have a new section for hair accessories. I found out in Feb. that I am having a girl in July! So I needed to make her matching bows for her outfits. Hopefully she has hair but if not I made her some headbands that you can interchange the clips with.

I am hoping to work on my scrapbook and maybe be caught before she is born too. Well see what that brings to my shop :)

Back to blogging...

So what to say.. school has been in session now for over a month. So life in my house has gotten busy...really busy. I am trying to get everything ready for my Christmas items. I have been making tags and more tags which is good for you because there will plenty for everyone...lol

Well what to say about Jill. We went to high school together and she used to sit behind my husband in homeroom...lol. Then we met again on Etsy. She is an awesome team leader and knows her stuff.

If you have shopped with a team member lets hear about it!

Yay!! It is August!

Which is so exciting because it means vacation!!! I can't wait to go away the kids can't wait.
I stocked today but that will be it until I return home. I am going to visit one of my favorite supply shops while on vacation so who knows what I will come up with next.
My latest creation is the unpaper doll. It is made of felt. I used like to make paper dolls with my grandmother as a child and thought this would be better. The doll won't rip. I even have some cute outfits in store for them.

Merry Christmas in July!!!

I had so much fun making items for this stocking.

"Thank you for my autograph"

Yes my son thanked me for his autograph. He is 3 and learning to write his name but will ask me to write it as he spells it. Then thanks me for his autograph. I really have no idea where he get this stuff. I thought it was cute and had to share.
So you are probably looking at my picture thinking why Santa? Well it is almost time for my Christmas in July stocking on Hyena Cart. All of my previews are up. I think I may add one or two more surprises but other than that they are all up.
