..fore!..

Haha, it's official, I'm a golfer!! :D Well, maybe I wouldn't call myself a golfer. But I played my very first game yesterday. It was me, Jeff, his parents, and his friend, Doug. We had the BEST time! It took us almost 4 hours to play 9 holes because me and Jeff's mom are newbies :) She hasn't played since she was about 20, and I've never played a hole in my life. Between the ball diving, the roof hitting and me falling in love with a 3 wood because I can WHACK a ball like nothing else, it was a great day. Here are some pics :)







This last pic was Jeff's dad saying, "Just keep your head down, I'll watch where the ball goes!" Lol. Me and his mom had the hardest time NOT looking up before we even made contact with the ball. It was hilarious.

In other, non-golfing news, Scrapbook Takeout has a great new Challenge Blog! They've got 2 challenges going on right now (1 is a mini book in a tin, and it's only $3 shipped!) plus they're having a giveaway there too. You should totally check it out.

Also, the sale in my Etsy shop is going to run through tonight. I've been so busy with other things since last weekend, that I haven't had time to go in and change the prices back to original price. Tomorrow the prices will go back and hopefully I will have some new things to add.

I have some other fantabulous news, but I can't post it quite yet. No, I'm not preggo, sorry Mom :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll!

..kick your heels up..

Croppin' time! :D

I love me some Mary Poppins :) Wanted to let you know that the AMR crop is going on right now! If you're not there, you're missing it :) My challenge goes up in about 35 minutes, so you should come by.

On another note, everything in my Etsy shop is on sale through tomorrow! Everything is marked $1.00 off, which means that nothing is over $5.00!!!

And for anyone wondering if yesterday was crazy or lucky for us, I'm gonna say crazy. Jeff managed to crash TWO of his r/c airplanes while I was videoing. So, it wasn't too crazy, but it definitely wasn't lucky :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll!

..crazy 8's..

08.08.08

Does that mean it's gonna be a crazy day? Or maybe a lucky day? I guess we'll see :) I have nothing special planned.. a few things I'd like to get done, but hubby's home so I'm not sure they'll get done :) I couldn't sleep last night so I was up until about 2am sewing more pincushions. What is it about getting new fabric that makes you just HAVE to use it? :)





Those little guys are brand spankin' new in the Shop :) Don't forget that the crop at AMR is tomorrow, starting at 4pm E.

Hope everyone has a great 08.08.08 (I just had to get that in there one more time, ha!) :)

Peace, love, and koala fuzz ya'll!

..write it down..

on your calendars gals, there's a crop this weekend! Over at All Moments Remembered this Saturday, August 9th, starting at 4pm E. It's gonna be lots of fun (as always!) with Challenges and great conversation and lots of chances to win some RAKs. I'm hosting a Challenge at 7pm E, and here's a little sneak of my example..



So you gotta come join us. And, I've got new pincushions up in my Etsy store too.



Isn't that fabric too cute? Gotta go get some more stuffin' and I will have more up tonight and tomorrow. It's about Sloppy Joe time, so I'm out for today.

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll!

..sew-sew..

Well, I've finally got these little guys going up in my Etsy store tonight.



I love making these pincushions. The tomato just reminds me so much of sitting next to my grandmother next to the sewing machine while she made baby quilts and wedding dresses for my Barbies. I have tons of fun and funky fabric to make these with. Tomatoes don't just have to be red you know! :D

Two posts today, I'm on a roll!

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll :)

..vintage moon!..

I am so in love with this new line from Pink Paislee. It's so me :) And I love that it's Fall/Halloweenish without being blatantly Halloween, kwim? Pop Fashion is totally cute too.

If you want to get your little paws on some right now (yes, right now, as in, Stacey is shipping as soon as you order!) then head on over to the All Moments Remembered store and grab ya some! She has the Top Siders too, they're so cool. And if you get a second, swing by Stacey's blog and check out all of the other new stuff she has.

This Saturday, we'll be having a crop in the AMR forums too. Everyone is invited. There's gonna be lots of challenges and RAKs being given away. I'm hosting one of the challenges, and all I'm gonna say is it involves a needle and thread :D

So go buy you some Pink Paislee, then come join my challenge on Saturday. The crop starts at 4pm Eastern time and goes until whenever!

..I really love your peaches..

..wanna shake your tree!! :)

I had every intention of getting up and hitting some yard sales today, but I ended up doing a little work instead. As if making my little Stick Pins wasn't blinding enough (I have GOT to get a magnifying glass!), I have started making dollhouse miniatures! Talk about tiny, I mean I'm making peaches that are 1/4" big! I must be crazy :) Anyway, I got a few things stocked in my Etsy shop if you wanna see some stuff :)

Check out mah peaches!! :D



Now I have cleaning to do.. I'd rather play, it's so much more fun than cleaning house. Why was playing house so much fun when we were kids? Where did that funness get lost, when the dishes got real? :)

Peace, love and koala fuzz ya'll!
