..fun monday 6/27..

Since Monday is the only day of the week I have home from the bakery, and now that I have a totally working computer (*knocks on wood*) then I'd like to do something special. So I thought Fun Monday would be, well, fun! :)

Here are the rules.. don't worry, they're not too strict :)

1. Search the web and find something fun! It could be a craft, a recipe, a new online boutique, or anything. Then make a post on your blog about Fun Monday and link to your fun find!

2. Come back here and leave a link to YOUR blog post about Fun Monday!

3. Visit other bloggers' Fun Monday posts and leave them some love.

4. Tell your friends! :)

If you'd like, you can grab the Fun Monday button and post it on your blog if you'd like.

For your viewing pleasure today, I give you my Fun Find..

Check out this adorable mini book! Makes me want to load up the girls and the hubs and head for a camping spot!

It was made by Susan from the blog Susie Stamp A Lot! She has a lot more pictures of the inside, so you should go check out her blog. I miss my scrapping time!


Now it's your turn. Link up to your Fun Monday post!

..feel the love..

Just wanted to share some new stuff.. The stamps in the January kit from Scrapbook Takeout just made me wanna make some Valentine's cards.





There are a few more close-up shots in my Flickr Scrap Gallery, should you want to see them :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz y'all!

..smile and be scrappy..

I knew when I woke up this morning that it was going to be a semi-lousy day. You can just tell sometimes, you know? Well, after much laying around, doing nothing, I decided I had to do at least one crafty productive thing today. Surprisingly I was in the mood to scrap. I say surprisingly, because I haven't been scrappy lately. Not sure why, I just haven't been provoked until I was going through some pictures and found this one of my little girl..



It might be hard to tell, but her eyes are so bright green in the photo. I had to scrap it :) The journaling reads, "Witch Cat: That's what calico cats are sometimes called. Maybe that's why I love her so much."

Another thing that might help lift my spirits.. Bama ball starts tonight, wooooo!!! :) Nothing like football season in the South :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll! :)

..sumpin' new & a sneak..

Happy Tuesday everyone. It's been a rainy one here. Usually that means laundry time, but today I shunned the mounds of clothes and dishes that need to be washed so I could cut up some paper :) I made this little mini the other day for a challenge over at the Scrapbook Takeout Blog.







I just grabbed up some patterned paper (KI Memories & My Mind's Eye), ribbon, paint, buttons and a couple of journal box stamps (Scrapbook Takeout exclusives) and went to work. It took me less than an hour to do the whole thing, and that includes paint drying time!! :D

And now for the sneak portion of our show. I'm almost done with one of my projects that I'm doing for Chatterbox. Recently I won a whole big box of goodness from Artsy.licious and I've been working on something today. It will be done tomorrow (after a quick run to Hobby Lobby) and then I will post the whole thing. But until then, you only get a small eyeball full...



Think you know what it is? :D It's one of two I will be making. The other one will be red :) Now I guess I better get off here and go make some dinner. I can live off of ramen and cereal, why can't J? :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll!
