Exciting News!!

I am so excited! I am currently in the process of designing my new blog. Eeek!! 


When I first started this blog it was to document our trip to Ireland. Upon return it quickly turned into a craft blog, which is what my new blog will be about. 


All of my personal, family posts will still be shared on here, but all the crafty posts will go on my new site.


I can't wait! I hope you join me on my journey. I am planning on launching my new blog on February 1st. Here is a sneak peak!!

Our Journey...A Piece of Art for My Husband

This Christmas, I wanted to give my husband something special. Something to show him how much I care for him and love him, and love to be with him. I remembered this pin I saw on Pinterest, where someone had cut out hearts in maps of all the places they've been.


Such a great idea as we've been to a few places and love to travel. This is what I came up with. 




I used black and red to match our bedroom which we recently organized and redecorated. (This post will be coming up soon but here's a sneak peak.)


For the hearts, I used an old atlas that I found at my local thrift store. I cut a heart template out and traced the hearts onto the maps and went to town. In our travels we've been to Toronto, Jacksonville, The Bahamas, Mexico, Ireland and Paris.

At the top I used my Cricut to cut a heart around Winnipeg. This is where all of our trips start from and where we call home. 




In May when we went to Ireland we made a pit stop in Paris for a day to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary.



I think he likes it, I know I do. I'd love to know what you think.
