A little Scraps and Scribbles Swap

Courtney from Scraps and Scribbles contacted me about being one of her "Who's that" features. We decided to do a swap so I could introduce YOU to her too! What I have found out that is that we have a lot in common regarding the projects we like to do.

You can read all about me over on her blog today. In the meantime, let me introduce you to Courtney!
-----------------------

I'm jumping up and down excited to be visiting with you all today over here at the Brassy Apple!!  I'm a huge fan of Megan's.

In case you're wondering who this girl is, I'm Courtney from Scraps and Scribbles.  That's me with my wonderful little family.

 I've been married to my wonderful husband for just over 5 years.  We have one 2-year-old little boy, who I have the wonderful privilege of staying home with, and one bun in the oven : ) We live in sunny Florida, and love it.  When I'm not spending time with my son or taking care of my responsibilities as a housewife, things like cleaning and the laundry, I like to craft, sew, cook/bake and take pictures.  I'm a big fan of DIY decor and ways to dress up my home on the cheap.  I'm also the creative mind behind D Squared Creations, my Etsy shop that I run with my sister-in-law where we sell our pretty creations.  It's full of fun vintage finds and pretty jewelery to dress up your outfits.  I love fashion and make-up and sharing what I find.  If you'd like to know more about me, you can check out the About Me page over at my blog.

As I mentioned, I dabble in home decor and I love finding inexpensive ways to dress up my home.

This photo collage star is one of my favorite projects.  I get compliments on it often when we have guests.

I love photography.  I fell in love as a child and that love grew in high school through an awesome photo class (and equally awesome teacher) and have been a shutterbug ever since.  I have a little photography business that allows me to work when I want and still be able to be home with my son.  I started by doing a wedding as a gift to a friend 7 years ago and it has just grown from there.  I do everything from cute babies to families to engagements.  This is my good friend and her beautiful family back in December-I shot some pictures for them for Christmas.

One of my goals when I started my blog was to become better at sewing.  My Anthro-inspired ruffle tee was one of my very first endeavors and I loved it!  

My purple rosette tee is my latest sewing project-I've had a problem with my t-shirts getting holes in them.

One of the things I looked forward to once we bought our house was being able to have a garden.  These Silverware Garden Markers are super-easy to make.  I'll be making more to go in my garden.

One of the things I try to do, not only with my blog but also with my every day life, is to keep things simple.  I made this wreath with interchangeable embellishments so I wouldn't have a pile of wreaths lying around. 

I do a weekly segment where I share tips and tricks.  One of my favorite series was the one I did on make-up (one of my passions)-you can check out my video tutorial on how to do up your whole face in 10 minutes.

I also do a weekly segment called Fashion Fridays where I share fun fashion finds, from trends I love to pretty clothes.  And my love for shoes : )

 Thanks so much for letting me come by today and share a bit of me and my blog with your lovely readers, Megan!  I hope you all come by Scraps and Scribbles and say hi-I'd love to meet you!
