Games People Play

It's Hip Hop Hangover today and for once, I think I have one. I was not able to participate, but my entire evening was focused on Unity Stamps.

I created the above using one of their brand new slides, called "Game of Chance Bingo".

The above link goes along with an exciting announcement...at least for me, anyway! I've teamed up with a couple artisans around here and opened a small studio!

I've had this cooperative studio concept dream for about 4 years, and it's been slowly coming together. We recently found some space and are in the process of negotiating the lease and terms, but it is slowly coming together.

In the meantime, we each have been been what I refer to as "gypsy" artists...making and selling via marketplace, fair, or by word of mouth...for a long time.

So, anyway, a different sort of dream come true...I hope anyway. It all depends on the negotiations.

Oh, and how it links to the above ETSY store is that in the meantime, since we already have lots and lots of stuff, we're using ETSY as our online marketplace. If it ends up working out, we'll keep it there...if not, we may build our own online space.

So, hey. That's why I've been a little absent!

Baker John

Totally scrumptious, this bread. John is home from college right now and in-between hours of aimless gaming, he must be thinking of good food. He trolled my cookbook case and pulled a very old Italian bread cookbook out and VOILA....filled our house with the wonderful aroma of rosemary. His first loaf.

Big Birthday Celebration

Are you here having fun hopping along with 3GirlJAM in celebration of Julie's sister's big birthday year? What a great little cyber party we're having! (she's really a young thing, but she's having a great year) Well, if not, you should be hopping along (I'll tell you why in a moment). There are some really wonderful birthday ideas from all of us on the design team...and including Julie's two girls, who are also having fun celebrating their aunt's birthday. If you need to go back to the beginning, head over to the 3GirlJAM blog to get started. Otherwise.... Here's my card in celebration her special year! I used blue crinkle ribbon from the newly released Red,White,Blue Bundle. It's such a nice shade of blue! The white has bits of the red and blue in it (and I love the ribbon when it's like that)...and the red is also pretty awesome...like marachino cherries. The little button in the center is from Pinque Peacock (l

Stylish Gift Bag

Today I have the above project featured over on the Pinque Peacock blog. (go visit!) I love how it turned out. It is a relatively simple design, but is sturdy and large enough to hold a nice size gift. I put handmade soaps in it and I don't think it will have any trouble holding up under the weight! Anyway, hope you like it! Let me know if you'd like a tutorial and I'll get my busy little hands to work! In the meantime, enjoy your holiday. We are supposed to have some pretty heavy storms, but today, so far, it is nice enough (SUPER hot and humid, but very few clouds).
