'Ya Gotta Love the Monster!

Billie Monster that is!  Do you remember my last week's Magnificent Blog Feature?  If you don't, let me refresh your memory: Billie Monster the amazing DIY-er and blogger that I've been stalking following since I found her blog a couple of months ago.  When I stumbled upon her blog I immediately started to follow and every time she posted a new project I swooned over it!  I also knew right then and there that I wanted to feature her on a Magnificent Monday post.  Funny thing is that the Friday before her feature she started to follow me and told me that she liked my blog...great minds must think alike, right?  As if that weren't enough, on Tuesday she decided to pass this along to me:

I am honored that I would get anything of the sorts and I am ESPECIALLY honored that it's come from her!  I love blogging and all the fun things that I get to do with my time right now as I am in a season of calm and rest in my life.  I know that this season will not always last so I am so thankful for each of you (including Billie!) that take the time and check out my efforts day after day!

Now to pass this award on....you guys know how I feel about this - Blogland is FULL of amazing blogs with amazing ideas and thoughts and inspirations.  I really struggle with this, although it couldn't have come at a better time!  On Monday, I found myself over at Mel's Sweet Treats and this is a girl after my own heart!  Just a few of the amazing things that I found over there....

Honey Spice Cake...I mean, really this looks AMAZING!

This ambitious DIY bride just recently got married and look at what she made as seating charts for her guests at the reception...uh-mazing!!!

And as if everything else I've showed you wasn't enough, check out these adorable cupcakes designed to be Cookie Monsters and Elmos...SO CUTE!

***When you head over to her blog, check out how her husband proposed to her...definitely one amazing story!!! :)

Mel's Sweet Treats is a blog that I definitely feel has a lot of substance to it...literally! :)  Mel, if you read this ever, please know how inspired I am to bake by going to your blog!  I'm so thankful that Bakerella introduced me to your blog!
