I love the beauty and creativity of them, but they are massively labor intensive and I’m not the most patient person for baking projects like this.

DIY Printed Paper Pine Tree - Anthropologie Inspired Happy Monday friends!  I have an awesome tutorial to share with you, but first I wanted to wish my amazing fiance the  best birthday ever today !!!  Also, we finally bought a new car!  It was fate I tell you!  I'd been looking for a Jeep this entire time, but every time I'd come across one that I loved, all I would hear was "It's JUST been sold".  I swear I kept missing these things by mere hours.  I was getting pretty fed up and about to just choose a car that I wasn't too keen on, until Dustin mentioned that a new Jeep had just come in as a trade-in.... but when he checked into it he was told it had already been sold!  Not again!  He just so happened to ask about it the next day and was told that it in fact wasn't sold and that the person who told him that was think...
