In the last 10 years, I have brought home 6 pets; 3 dogs, 2 cats and a guinnea pig. When Pink Girl found a little black and white kitten in a parking lot, it was not a surprise that she could not leave the poor thing there and I could not say no. Noone has claimed this little one, so Mittens has a new home.
Isn't it cute how she matches the little glass Halloween kitty on the pin cushion made by
Elizabeth Holcombe?
Look how Mittens matches this dress from
Hannah Banana Baby!
I've been sewing fabric banners lately to offer on
A Bit of Heaven Creations by Eleanor Erickson.
In case you want to make your own banner, here are the instructions:
* You will need 2 different types of fabric, 1/2 yard each. (This banner is two sided)
* 1 yd. Heat and Bond (the type you use for applique)
* Iron Heat and Bond to the back side of one fabric following instructions on pkg.
* Remove paper from Heat and Bond
* Position the back side of the second fabric to the backside of the first fabric. (Heat and Bond will be in the center). Iron together.
* Cut Material into desired triangle shape with a pinking sheers. I always make a pattern out of paper.
* You will have a two sided flag. I like to sew a decorative stitch about 1/4" from the edge of each flag, to make sure that the two fabrics stay bonded.
* Position flags as you want them. I like to alternate fabarics.
* Sew decorative trim across the top of each flag to attach the flags together.
* Sew ribbon on the ends so that you can tie it up!
Happy beginning of Fall!
I have more Birthday treats to show you, so be sure to come back later in the week.
Pink and cream colored decorations adorn this tree. A few "holes" where the branches are separated thanks to Mitten. I like to hang a few pieces of altered art on the tree. A little unexpected as they aren't really Christmas decorations. The "nest" birdhouses are new this year and made by Beth. 
Next pic is our traditional Christmas tree. This tree is filled with the ornaments we have collected through the years. I also put on red candles as this was my grandmother's tradition. We don't light the candles, but we did when I was a little girl! I found the candle clips at a Stabo store (Scandinavian Imports). 
As you may already know, I dislike pictures on my fridge. To solve this problem a few months ago, we added these bulletin boards to our kitchen. Perfect for displaying Christmas cards.
We have been enjoying a beautiful day of sunshine and lots of snow. This is the snow that has piled up outside my kitchen window. 
Mr. Pink Heaven is on the roof outside of our bedroom window. He's trying to remove some of the snow that has accumulated on our roof. Yes, I leaned out of the window to take this picture. 
Beautiful blue, glamorous black, and creamy yellow are my momentary favorites.
I have also found some reproduction flocked papers.
What do I create with these gorgeous papers?
soft pink keepsake boxes embellished with German scrap and vintage jewels,
picture frames,
and a pink and blue journal.
This bunting has quite a few flags of pink, black and white that spell out the baby's name in silver glitter. 
A journal/guestbook/photo album is embellished with vintage wallpaper, ribbon, and a little bling! 
A little redecorating has been going on at Pink Heaven. The sitting room has a fresh coat of soft blue paint, furniture has been recovered, and a new coffee table is afoot! The room isn't finished yet. I'm still waiting for two french chairs with whitewashed arms and white cane backs. I'm also sewing window treatments, so I better get to work!
Love how the mirrors look on the icy blue walls.
