Finally, it's done.

It took me over 20 hours to finish it, but I am finally done! Kai's new costume is rhinestoned, and I do mean rhinestoned. Let's see, between the costume and the bracelets that I made. This costume has about 38 gross of rhinestones. Once I started the bodice, I realized that I was going to need more. I had to order another 9 gross. I have about a gross left for any that might pop off. I think this costume just might sparkle, just maybe.


The bodice is completely covered in Jet Black Swarovski's and the colored stones are mixed in.
The skirt is also stoned on top and underneath, although those are spread out a little more than on the bodice.

I made three roses, but I'm not sure if she will use all three. Made one of each color just in case.


I made these six bracelets out of 20ss stones. It took almost five gross of stones for all six bracelets. But boy do they sparkle.
I liked these so much, that I am going to be making 20 of them in lime green for Cover Girl.
Now that her costume is done, she needs to really clean it up in the next two weeks. She will compete it at Encore in a few weeks. Like I said in the post before....MY job is done, it's now up to Kai for the rest.

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Flashback Friday

This Friday, I am participating in two links. My first is with Alicia over at More Than Words . There are only two weeks to go for TDA's Summer Recital. This year it will be held at Higley Performing Arts on June 20 at 7:00. Kassie will be in aproximately 14 dances so far. Might change though. Hopefully it will change to less. : ) Recital is in full swing right now. Every day, you see kids walking out with their costumes. It is so cute. I especially love seeing the little two and three year olds. They are always so excited. This is a picture of Kai in her 2nd Recital with TDA. It was her first year taking more than two classes. I think she was in five or six recital numbers. It was her first official ballet dance. She had never taken a full ballet class. She since has learned to love it. This picture was taken in 2005 making her only nine years old. How fast time goes..... June 2005
