autumn cards

I've been working on some seasonal autumn cards lately so I thought I'd show all of you a few tidbits! Enjoy (: Oh, and if you like what you see let me know. I am now selling handmade cards!

"delicious autumn! my soul is wedded to it and if i were a bird i would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns."-george eliot

i think that's just such a lovely quote!

just a little thank you card (: oh! and also an owl friend
closeup of the owl. i'd say he's about 3 1/2 in x 5 in. i'm going to play around with the patterns and make tons more little owl friends. you can flip one over and jot a little note on the back for someone you love!"winter is an etching, spring a water color, summer an oil painting, and autumn a mosaic of them all." -stanley horowitz

the perfect card/quote for all you artists out there.

this one reads: "F is for fall, family, friends"that's all for now, lovelies. let me know if you like any of 'em and if you're interested at all (:

the little things

I hope your Sunday morning feels as magical as mine does. (: It's possible that "falling back" an hour has something to do with it, but I'm just sipping on some coffee and browsing through some super cute vintage jewelry on etsy. It really makes me want to go to the little downtown village area in Claremont. Just look how appealing the entrance to this vintage shop is which is located there:
Pondering around over there has made me realize I definitely have a few obsessions. I absolutely adore lockets, owls, and little birds. Combine them and it's even better, as these lockets from verabel's etsy shop prove. I just love the added touch of the tiny birdies (:


Don't even get me started on owls! Agh. It's definitely becoming a problem. Although, I own just one piece of owl jewelry. One of these rings is on my wish list from idle hands designs' etsy shop for sure though! And if you adore owls, it's probably on yours now as well. The shop also has tons of precious moustache jewelry (another admitted obsession that I've picked up lately).


In other news, here is a snippet of the painting I'm still working on.



You can't tell much from this picture, but I'll be done soon (:

Now that you've heard about my recent interests, what's been captivating you lately? (:
