So today i decided to make a few wristlets.  The white roses wristlet struck me as being a cute gift for a bride- something that she can carry a little something in (lipstick etc) between the ceremony and reception or even when getting wild at the bachelorette party.

I'm not really sure why I made a holiday one right now- in JUNE, but the image was there and I kind of felt like I should because I know I would forget about it completely.  This would be a fun wristlet for holiday parties!

My red wine with two glasses has started becoming popular!  It is so exciting when something I had such a great time making goes over well!  I have recently started a series of articles about wine and wine related products so I finally started promoting this guy and it took off!  If you are a true oenophile, check out my series of fun articles starting with

White roses are always pretty so I made a few things out of a closeup of a bunch of white roses.  There are lots of different products with this image which would make a nice wedding present.

My husband is always buying me pretty flowers!  He brought home a bunch of the brightest blue and purple flowers I have ever seen so I had to take some pictures!

Holiday designs

We are getting very close to the holidays and I am still making new designs!  Today I have been focusing mostly on some cool candy cane designs and have been trying to do things with the computer... (I found some cool new toys within photoshop).

Anyway, my favorite candy cane type of design is this one.... the candy jar

I thought this would be a cute design on a binder for anyone who is really into scrapbooking or making albums and also maybe a great place to stick special holiday recipes for easy access while cooking the big holiday dinner... the uses are endless.

I hand drew these candy canes and holly on my little drawing tablet!  It was really fun making the apron (the text is customizable)

A hand drawn santa (he was tricky) and inside the card is the same image but not colored in so that your child (or recipient's child) could color it in for fun!

I despise politics

Politics really gets me upset.  I NEVER tell people my political views as I have found that some people take certain political issues so seriously that it can effect their views of someone regardless of how serious the particular issue is.  I will not tell you which party I lean closest toward...

I (like millions of other Americans) have become increasingly infuriated with our leaders in general- most of them- not just one in particular.  Their inability to perform their job functions, dishonesty, blame, and general incompetence are just too frustrating.

My son learned many important life skills in Kindergarten.  These are all skills that our leaders seem to lack.  While I am not literally suggesting that groups of children run the country, I do think that perhaps our leaders could learn a lot if they spent some time in a Kindergarten classroom.

Roses

My son was in a school play and afterward, we gave him a rose.  For the past few days I have been taking  tons of pictures of the rose and applying the photos to all kinds of cool things!

Trying to make stuff for Guys too!

So I really am trying to expand a bit and design a few things for guys too... problem is, I'm not so good at it!  I have never been a "girly girl"- very much a tom-boy.  When I first started designing stuff on Zazzle though I did spend months and months filling my eyes and head with pretty girly things with many hours of window shopping and browsing.  Once I got some of the girly stuff in my head I just could not get it out!


Now I really am trying to get the hang of things that guys like... please be nice- I'm still learning!

Here is a skateboard with an image of a brick wall and graffiti in the background.  You can customize the text to display your name or a slogan you like in a font that also looks like graffiti! I am not entirely sure if this is a guy design because I like it!

This damask could be masculine on a number of different products- I chose to show the button because it did not have the additional embellishments that the other products displaying this design have... although the embellishments can ALL be removed from the others when you customize!

OK, I do know more women who like wine, but traditionally, wine makers and barkeepers are male.  Besides, wine is yummy.  This design has a background listing different varieties of wine with an image of a bottle of red wine and two glasses.

Some of my girly designs

Polka Dots and Stripes Pink, Black and White by Sidther
Make custom printed ring binders at zazzle

What could be griller than the classic combination of black, white and pink? This design features a modern twist on some simple, classic design elements by combining larger polka dots with skinny stripes as well as a large "button" type of text background centered on the black band which separates the two designs all with a bight, modern shade of pink!  This can be customized to display any name!

Pinks and White Polka Dots Binder by Sidther

This pale pink and white polka dot pattern uses a classic shade of pink with an "earthy" stripe across the center and a matching text area.  This is a very simple, yet bold design which would make a good album for a new baby girl, journal for a young lady, coupon organizer, recipe book or any thing else you can think of!
