Our Paper Pumpkin Abstract Craft

Now that Halloween is over, instead of focusing on creative costumes, we can focus on creative platters. Pumpkin Pies, Pumpkin Spice Cake, Beef and Pumpkin Stew are some of my favorite things. I LOVE Pumpkins and all the wonderful things they help me create in my nifty kitchen. So to start of November, Miss Bree and I made a little pumpkin craft. We started with a black piece of card stock and had fun making brown, orange, and green confetti out of construction paper. The project was simple enough I allowed her to do everything but cutting (we're still learning scissor safety). We drew a simple round shape, similar to a pumpkin, used our glue stick to the cover the area, and pasted our confetti paper in the appropriate areas.Miss Bree was soo proud of her work, she had me take of picture of her holding it so she could share it with everyone online. Enjoy!

Capturing the Moments

I love digital creations, but I'm also falling in love with simple photography! I LOVE being able to capture the most precious moments in life..,. and I have to give credit to Carrie Butler for my inspiration!

With our new Lttl1 resting in my lap I have enjoyed searching through and reading others blogs. On FaceBook I'm a fan of Craft Magazine, who featured a tutorial from Giver's Log about a cute pattern for a Super Mario's hat, where I later found the Shoot-Along Tutorial by Carrie Butler. A few tips that helped me capture the perfect photo included: not positioning your child in the pose you want when you have the camera out, but rather waiting for the perfect moment.

After reading Carrie's tutorial and receiving inspiration I was able to capture the most amazing photo of my princess: This photo reminds me of myself when I was younger; very dramatic young girl captured in the butt of the moment, but still a princess, determined to make her own fairytale. This photo captured that moment, she really is my darling Cinderella; although, scrubbing fireplaces isn't a requirement in this house. :)

Joe & Sons Business Cards - Painter

For the Painter that works for Joe & Sons General Contracting, I have created these business cards:

Joe & Sons Business Cards

Here are the new business cards I've created for Joe & Sons General Contracting. The only consistent logo they have had is the skull and cross bones, so instead of making that the main focus of the attention... I incorporated an image that would effectively represent their business, while keeping the representation of their consistent logo. The family was very satisfied with the cards and are looking forward to more creations from me to represent the other departments within the business to include: flooring, painting, and electric work.

Angel's 16th Birthday Party Invitations

Angel turns 16 this year and in attempt to make the invitation I developed several designs to present to the customer: This invitation was appealing to Angel, but her mom was looking for something a little bit more family friendly.
Hence the development with the daisies. (These invitations were created before the customer chose a theme.)
Once they decided to have a carnival theme, I had a little bit more to work with. The customer wanted to have a party that was going to be fun and enticing to kids. Therefore, we have the fun and busy Carnival ticket invitation:
Nevertheless, we ended up with a less busy and elegant look promoting Angel's 16th Birthday.Final Product

Welcome to BreeZ's Creations

My name is Breanna Marini: I'm a 23 year-old mother of three beautiful children, a dedicated student, an inspired homemaker, and a CREATOR. I started this website to promote the numerous projects I create; showing off my works of art and hoping for a potential business opportunity.

I pride myself in helping others through appropriate planning and creating useful documents to promote marketing and self-sufficiency. Every business/party has to start somewhere and I believe that with the eye-catching presentation and/or invitation YOU TOO can have the BEST business or party in town!

I first start with the type of document, understanding the function, then adding a theme, incorporating colors, and finishing the document with your personal touch! For those who don't have the time, energy, or are simply lacking creativity, I can help develop:

- Newsletters: Are you having difficulty communicating with family, friends, or co-workers? Keep them updated through a brief newsletter!
- Invitations: Don't let your guest forget that important date! Let me help you create a memorable invitation that will engrave the occasion in their minds.
- Flyer's: Have an important event approaching, but are unsure how to "woo" your guest? I can create and help you plan for the special event, promoting maximum attendance.
- Business Cards: Let EVERYONE know who YOU are! The best way to get noticed is through NETWORKING. If someone knows a person, who knows a person, it's great to have a business card on hand so the individual can spread the word with ease! Don't leave your potential customers with sloppy writing on a napkin that eventually ends up in the trash. Let me help you create the perfect business card TODAY!

Lastly, I have found that making useful gifts are enjoyed more thoroughly than swiping a card for something plastic that will either break or die within a few weeks. Therefore, one of my favorite hobbies is creating and developing educational toys for children out of basic materials and fabric. Today we rely so much on technology to keep our children occupied, but what we're forgetting to realize is that it's the simple toys, like a fabric ball or box of bean bags, that will help our children's development.

My creations aren't limited to what is described in this post, but continues on with clothing, accessories, cooking, cleaning tips, and other ideas. Because the site will be constantly under re-construction, keep an eye out for updated posts with pictures of my products. Thank you for stopping by the blog and if you have any question, comments, or are interested in the pricing of my services please feel free to email me at: BreannaMarini@live.com.
