So I'm trying to think of some new ideas for handmade goods. Here is a banner I started a couple of days ago.

She sold with me and the craft fair, and is one of the most creative people I know. Check out her blog <a href="http://www.hellotreecookies.com/">here</a> . Anyway, I couldn't resist this little note set. I love roses, and thought it would be an awesome thing to frame. <div>It couldn't have been easier. I just trimmed the card to 3x5, and put it into one of my favorite small frames. I have it as part of a collage on my wall, and I love looking at it everyday. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2493705478082473696-5708648919741539952?l=locirque.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Loreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00041430852364818214noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2493705478082473696.post-25220432204851605712011-08-30T10:21:00.000-07:002011-08-30T10:23:08.925-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-n8yPYv6QzP4/Tl0cali8P8I/AAAAAAAAAH0/r91hB9iCNF4/s1600/135718_10150351425630392_752660391_16321249_3231637_o.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-n8yPYv6QzP4/Tl0cali8P8I/AAAAAAAAAH0/r91hB9iCNF4/s400/135718_10150351425630392_752660391_16321249_3231637_o.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5646700750873313218" /></a> <br />This guy turns 70 today.
