Koralee, I have been thinking about your window treatment ever since you posted your pretty "heartbeats"! It is so very lovely
and I adore the whole beautiful picture! Wherever did you find such a unique valance?
Thank you for cluing me in about the latest fonts. Hope you don't mind my being a copy cat! meow! :) I have spent some time updating my blog and I am happy with the changes.
I think I may actually attempt the Valentine cake. I just read through the tutorial and I would really like to give it a try. We'll see. I'm never quite sure what each day will bring! Happy dreams and a joyful Sunday to you!
Blessings!

OMG how I love your blog. It's so pretty and feminine, and it makes me feel so good. I've put you on my desktop because my reader is way too messy.
Such serenity in this part of the blogging land....sigh of happiness...

Ooooo, I love the pink heart marshmallows! I have decided that the person who invented marshmallows did the world a favor! They are just such a yummy, happy treat. Can't wait to see your heart -in the middle-cake!

Castles Crowns and Cottages said...

LOOK AT ALL THOSE PRETTY COLORS....Oh Koralee, you WERE home all day, enjoying your feathered nest, just doing what I LOVE to do: CREATING BEAUTY and yummy things that put a smile on the faces of those you love! Ahhhh.....Ruben and I FINALLY moved into our new room and last night we watched our first movie and had our first pot of tea in the great room. But it was a LONG day of moving a huge LCD TV, mounting it, drilling, hanging drapes, vacuuming...oh dear, I hurt my foot. My husband seems to forget that I am only 5'4, 115lbs and even though I lift weights to stay fit, I HAVE TROUBLE LIFTING A 100lb TV!!! Wow...I am glad that it OVER! Today, we hang pictures...OH BOY! THat is my favorite part of the job, and of course, sitting down to LOOK AT IT! Oh dearest, I doubt if my little valentine card to you and to Rosie makes it at least by this week! I WISH YOU THE MOST LOVELIEST OF DAYS TOMORROW WITH YOUR STUDENTS and family...GROSSES BISES MA CHÈRE PETIT OISEAU BLEU!!! Anita
