New Printable Party Sets

I just started designing printable party/wedding sets. This is the first set I've designed, it is a Dia de los Muertos wedding set. My wonderful neighbor came over and helped me stage the table for my photos. Considering we used scrap fabric and my little kitchen I think the photos came out awesome. I have 2 more sets waiting to be printed so I can set up another table. The kids loved walking in to the kitchen after school to a table decorated and full of goodies. I'm trying my best not to eat everything myself, but the pan dulce was way to tempting to leave for my hubby.

Hand Beaded Sugar Skull

When I was little I remember watching my mom sit with a stack of cut out felt shapes and a box full of sequins and beads. She would make big beaded broaches in the images of Santa, Poinsettias, valentines hearts, and pretty much everything else. Every now and then she'd let me help with one, half way through I'd get bored and give up. Last year I bought some fabric that I loved, and wanted to make some throw pillows with. After the first couple of pillows were done, they were cute but I couldn't help but think they were missing something. I dug through my craft closet and found a package of sequins and seed beads and knew that was exactly what was missing from my pillows, some sparkle.
