sledding...

it is jan 30th and we have had the wierdest winter.  by weird, i mean temps in the 50's and maybe three big snowstorms.  not that i'm complaining because i loathe winter.  so i'm actually enjoying it.  i'm just hoping it doesn't rain until july again!!  i made these atcs for a swap with the theme "anything winter".

i think i said this monday, but i can't believe it's friday already!   time, it's a flyin'!!!  with friday comes friends with flair.  now those who know me know that i'm not a huge fan of hearts or valentine's day.  but i do love this stamp and i think this would make a cute valentine!! this is a stamp of the week stamp.  i'm loving it.  new rubbery goodness in the mail every single week.  i'm also not a huge fan of leaving edges of ANYthing uninked.  but i thought this was cute with the clean edges and a little doodling.   go check out what the other unity peeps have done for fwf!

oh i think i may have found a new love. it's early still, but i am so loving this mixed media thing. who would have thought paint, stamps and embellies would make me so happy?? i even made this whole thing with several shades pink, for crying out loud, and loved it!!

i found a bargain dictionary to destroy (feels kind of bad, but makes things so cute!) and a cool french book.  i used a french page for this one.  hopefully it says nothing weird! i took some muslin, ripped a strip off and sparyed it with glimmer mist.  love how it turned out.

wow...this is a love-filled post...sorry about that!
