{september, already?}

Yesterday was the first day of September!

{as I'm sure you all knew}

Wow.

Sometimes it seems like life moves so fast...

Anyway, thinking about the fact that it's September made me realize that my favorite season ever, Fall, is right around the corner. Yay!

Living in Florida, Fall really doesn't look like this...

But I still love it. I'd love to visit somewhere that the leaves change.

And it will {hopefully} be getting cooler!

Florida is a hot place.

I look forward to the first cold snap every year.

Mainly because I love wearing things like this...

And as soon as it does get cooler, I'm taking myself to Starbucks for one of these...

Yum!

What are you looking forward to this Fall?

{a new find}

I don't know about you, but I like new finds. Especially when they're pretty.

So when I discovered Pretty Little Me yesterday, I knew the shop deserved a post.

Because it is just so amazingly pretty.

1. sweet pink roses
2. bitty butter mums

3. pretty birdy pearl

I'm finding Pretty Little Me to be very inspiring. The whole shop is so light and airy. I'm {kind of} in love with it all.

What do you think?

**This is not a sponsored post or anything - I just discovered the shop and think it's great.**

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

I know, it's only October.

But is it beginning to look like Christmas where you live?

I love Christmas. The cool weather (it's never truly cold in Florida), the music, a real Christmas tree, making cookies and pies, going to parties, being with friends and family, buying gifts, wrapping them beautifully (my favorite part!), receiving gifts...It's all so much fun.

I decided that I wanted to make Christmas cards to add to my shop. I love to make them, and who wouldn't love to get a handmade card in the mail? So on Tuesday, I cleaned off my desk, pulled out my Christmas supplies, and got to work!

Festive Words

Cozy Snowman

Peace on Earth

Stockings

Two Trees

What do you think? Which design is your favorite? I would really love to hear your feed back. I'll tell you that my personal favorite is Two Trees, but The Sweetheart favors Peace on Earth. =)

Currently, I've only listed Two Trees and Cozy Snowman in the shop. The rest will be coming very shortly, definitely by Monday. If you need some Christmas cards this year, I would LOVE to work with you!
