Just thought I would share a few things I have been finding on Pinterest in the last little while. 

Stella seems to have a pension for florals & I am not complaining.

I might not wear the gloves but the rest of this look from Burberry is working for me. 

If you are not yet a fan of green a word of caution; that dress will seduce you.  

Carven is bringing some intense pattern to the table & people are eating it up.

The last one is to over indulge in your eye candy sensory. 

Happy Weekend!

Leaving you with a little inspiration on this weekend. 

Dolphin Cake Topper DIY

image: reubenvision

Not a title you see on this blog everyday. I came up with this idea when planning a memory project for my creative process class. When I was around seven years old I loved dolphins. Not the most manly thing in the world; sure I loved sharks, sting-rays & whales to but dolphins took the cake. (pun intended) That year for my birthday I was delighted to receive an ice-cream cake bearing an icing dolphin just for me. 

Fast forward a few years and I have come up with something a little different inspired by that good memory. A Maple Pecan Bunt cake with boiled icing & three flipper 'd friends leaping into the sky. I also created a balloon backdrop from my crafting sheet & some pins. I can upload a printable version of the dolphin graphics if anyone is interested.

Florals at Christmas Part II

arrangements: reubenvision

A mix of pinecones, roses, candles & evergreen boughs. Here are some shots of the centre pieces that will be making the trip to Grammy's. (I will be sure to replace the candle before I gift them ;)

Well I am off to get wrapping. We are doing Christmas as a family tomorrow before heading out of Province on the 25th. I am planning on one more post (Christmas Eve) before taking a little break for some holiday fun. 

O Give Thanks Unto The Lord For He Is Good

Some Harvest inspiration for the Thanksgiving weekend.  I used Sunflowers, Coxcomb, Hydrangea, rose-hips, Strawflowers, Sedum, & mixed berries & foliage. The White pumpkin I purchased at a local grocery. I am off to spend the weekend in a very scenic part of the country with my cousins. I am very excited as it is sure to be a delicious & gorgeous weekend. 

I am very thankful to live in Canada, a country of peace.

I am thankful for my family.

I am thankful for great friends & support. 

I am thankful for this wonderful creation called earth.

Most of all I am thankful for a God who loved me enough to give himself; a ransom for all. 

O give thanks.
