These days salsas aren’t just about jalapenos and tomatoes. I see all kinds of unique ingredients, like this corn salsa for instance. True, the old standbys are mixed in, but I love the idea of adding a bit of a twist with the main ingredient of toasted corn kernels. Stir in a squeeze of fresh lime, chop in cilantro, dust with salt and pepper and you’ve got a little something new to introduce your corn chips to.
Take this recipe for a spin and let me know what you think!

DIY Freezer Paper & Crinoline Butterfly Mobile
I am currently in love with a number of things, a few of which are… the color white, butterflies, freezer paper and crinoline. What is crinoline you ask? It's a fabric that has been used for many years under skirts and dresses to give a fuller effect. I have started using it for a couple of projects and have fallen in love with the crisp, white, rustic effect that it can add to a project. It cuts and tears beautifully and is a dream to work with. Enough about that… here is what you will need to make a butterfly mobile of your own.

Far be it from me to put a rush on things… but whether we like it on not, the HOLIDAYS are around the corner!! My motto this year {yes, I am borrowing it from the Boy Scouts} BE PREPARED. The only way that we are going to be able to create a fun handmade holiday season is to start now and this is the perfect project to get a head start on… Holiday Gift Tags.
How many times have the gift tags become a forgotten item in the holiday decor? Even worse, you are stuck with a store bought tag when you know that you could make some sooooo much better.

I am back from a whirlwind weekend in Denver full of all kinds of FUN!! First, I taught some exciting classes at one of the most amazing fabric shops in the Denver area… Snappy Quilts!! If you live in Denver I am telling ya, this should be your new fabric Taj Mahal {yes it's seven wonders worthy!!} After the Snappy Quilt gig I spent Saturday at Bloggy Boot Camp put on by the aaaamazing SITS Girls! Phenomenal is all I can say about this event. Tiffany and Francesca know how to put on a blogging conference that is fun, inspirational and very informative. I HIGHLY recommend their one day conference for anyone who is interested in learning the ins & outs of how to create a successful blog. So… That's why our fabulous features are a little late today! I got in late last night and had to jump back into being Mom so this had to wait until the bus left for school. I'm sure you all understand!
Here with out any further chit chat from my end…
This is what Caught my eye this week! {stick around… we have a winner announced at the end of the post!}
