Pinned

As previously stated I, too, am one of the many Pinterest addicts.

These are a few of my favorite pins,

plus some things I hope to try next week:

“I get worried for young girls sometimes; I want them to feel that they can be sassy and full and weird and geeky and smart and independent, and not so withered and shriveled.” —Amy Poehler

Grilled Pizza - quick, easy, and looks delish!

I'd like to do a paper cut of this design. Love the water and the boat and I think it would look great on paper. Click the picture to see how to buy it.

(This isn't from Pinterest, but I want to try it this next week anyway.) 

I made some labels in Paint last week and I'd like to print a couple, stain the paper with coffee or tea, and see how they look on some of my glass jars.

What are your plans for next week?

Progress and Excitement

Just have to add the 3D dots to give it some depth

and then I can mail it to my nephew, in time for his birthday.

I'll actually be on time FOR ONCE!

And, guess what came in the mail today...

 Yep. That's right. My rock-awesome shoes.

 I was so excited, it was ridiculous.

I want to wear them to bed...

But I won't.

Maybe.

Web Wed (early)

My internet is having fits this week, so I'm posting Web Wednesday early, just in case.

Right now, I'm in love with papercuts. Not the little devils you get from handling paper. No, no, no. I'm talking about this and this. What are they you ask? They are HANDCUT first of all, used for cards, decor, whatever. This woman is amazing. Her blog is Scherenschnitte and she is a papercutter. I just discovered her a couple of days ago, and I spent an hour just looking at ALL of her blog posts. Her talent is insane, her designs are extremely intricate, and let me just tell you, I no longer feel deprived not having a Cricut.

This is a design I am working on right now for my nephew for his birthday next month: Dino Ride. He's into dinosaurs, and even has a huge mural on his wall of a t-rex breaking through, so I thought he'd love this one. I'll post a picture when I'm finished. It's so fun, and while I can only work on it when my girls are asleep, I'm really excited about it!
