So... my L110 Coolpix camera I have right now takes these amazing pictures-

What do you think my new L810 Coolpix camera will be able to do? :) Can't wait to find out! ♥

$$$

For everybody who hasn't checked out my Etsy shop yet- My Rainbow Veins... go on and take a peek! :) I just listed 2 new sets (Custom Bride and Groom and Lord of the Rings!) and I'm working on a whole bunch of new sets now :) Coming soon: Pooh and Piglet, Alice in Wonderland Tea Party, Kayaking and more :)

I've been into my shop the last few days... really getting to work on some new canvases! I'm trying to get back in business to get $$$ for my near-in-the-future purchase: a new camera :) 

Isn't she gorgeous? I intend to have her by June 12th (the Spring Fling), so I'm putting all my energy out! 

And****

Just so everybody knows- my GIVEAWAY ends in 6 days!! If you haven't entered to win one of my Canvas Newspaper Wall Arts- enter here NOW! 

May 19th...

...the day me and Riley have been anticipating... 

The Great North Road Yardsale! 

Our 'crap' laid out on the front lawn...

Every year all up and down North Road people have yardsales! This year more then 40 families were involved! and each year my gramma participates in it because we built up so much 'junk' we don't know what to do with it! Looking at our house you'd probably think we had nothing left to get rid of. Yet, every time we go through a draw, or cupboard, or closet, or basement- we find more stuff!! This year me and Riley collected a whole truck-full of things to sell, from sunglasses to lamps to clothes to Littlest Petshops. You name it- we had it! 

Our two stuffed tables... I sold 3 dozen farm fresh eggs :)

We slept over my Gramma's on the 18th so that we could get up bright and early (the yard sale started at 8 so that means people would probably start coming at 7 ;) 

Just me, Gramma's house and the gorgeous day ♥

The weather was almost perfect! Perfect, if you weren't the ones baking in the sun ;) I ended up with a red back and shoulders... but me and Riley each made about 30 bucks (we just collected all the money and split the proceeds)- so I was happy! :) It was quite a successful day! :) 

Arrrrgg!

Sunday was my cousin, Ellamae's 3rd birthday party :) Theme? Pirates!

Her and her cousin, Sofia, were running around in their little tutus all day looking absolution adorable ♥

Ellamae's baby brother, Bryce, was as cute as ever!

Her dad (Uncle Adam) got into the part by shaving his beard... getting some tats...

...and growing some dreads! Just like Joe Hart ♥ ;D

June 12th...

Taylor, Riley, Maddie (my cousin) and me in our Spring Fling Dresses! ♥

Gorgeous or what? Me and my sisters dance is on June 12th ♥ Maddie's is around the same time... she brought her dress when she slept over so that we could show them off ;) 

We're all so bright and springy! I'm sooo excited! ♥ We've been making decorations and I got to make the tickets again this year ♥ Remember last time I made them? Wow- that was forever ago. Haha, last year was Space Jam. This year is Under the Sea :) Isn't my dress perfect for it?

Before...

After...

Yeah- I did the editing ;)

My shop has been going pretty good... :) I haven't been giving it as much attention as it deserves the last few days because I've been preoccupied with Blogging again! But, today I worked on my newest design... Lord of the Rings! All LOTR fans will love it- guaranteed :) I have a million designs I want to make! So every so often when I get a new one up in my shop I'll post it on my Blog so you guys can check it out :D Some of my ideas you can keep an eye out for? 

Custom Dog Breed (with your dogs name :)

Piglet and Pooh ♥

Tea Party (Alice in Wonderland?)

Hogwarts Castle

Pet Ferret (custom position with your ferrets name :)

Bride and Groom (custom dress type!)

Cactus and Jackrabbit 

Smeagol (holding the ring)

Old Airplane

Squirrel Eating Nuts 

So- I have some plans... :) I actually don't have much in my shop right now- due to sales! :D Yay! I've made    5 sales in my shop so far! 2 to complete strangers (which, I must say, are the most satisfying!) 1 to my gramma and 2 custom designs to my grampa :) Thanks Grampa ♥ You've been very supportive! 

Have any ideas for me to try? Something that will be easily recognized as a silhouette? Let me know! And I take custom orders! ;)

In the City

So Sunday we went on a day trip to Boston :)
I'm definitely not a city person (I don't see what people see in it...? It's loud, hectic, crowded, smelly...), but it's fun to visit for a day. Once in awhile ;) I mostly wanted to go for the pictures! And I must admit- I really wanted to get a great pigeon picture ;D Haha, the weather was perfect and everything was lush and green ♥

I love this picture! #1. PIGEON! #2. duck in the background :)

DUCKLINGS!!! Soooo cute ♥

I love swans! ♥

Taylor, Mom, Riley and me :) Stupid sun had us squinting like crazy -_-

Riley and Grampa having a friendly chat with a neighbor... :)

My little birdy pal ♥

This was my little buddy...

He was showing off to me by stretching his wings out and strutting around...

Then he laid down next to me and kept inching closer and closer ♥ Haha
