Here it is.....!!!!!

Just thought I'd share with you the latest thing my 2 year old had to say. He was sent to bed this afternoon, and after being told to go back to bed one time, he came out again. So I asked him, "Did you sleep?"

He got this funny look on his face and says, "I did last year."

It's hard to get a "mad" face on and tell him to get back to bed.

And when his dad told him that he should be in bed, he replied, "No. Mom laughed at me."

Apparently, if I laugh, that's a green light for him to stay awake! :)

I am going on a trip to see my family tomorrow! Hubby really doesn't want to go, so he says, "Someone has to stay home and make money to pay for the gas!" I gotta say, it's so much easier to pack in the summer! Yay for flip flops instead of boots, shorts instead of jeans, and t-shirts instead of sweaters, and sweatshirts instead of winter coats!!

I am going to be keeping my shop open, because I will be able to check up on it every day.

And now for my big reveal!! I finally got my newest project finished, and am ready to show it off to the blog world. So all you readers are going to be the first to see, and then I will be listing this item when I return home again. Take a look! Let me know what you think of it...I would love some feedback on this one! (The pictures are really not all that great. Hopefully the sun will shine soon!)



This altered lunch box tin includes 12 birthday cards...3 for boys, 3 for girls, 3 for women, 3 for men. There are tabbed papers inside to keep them separate, and the envelopes are included. NONE of these cards have ever been sold in my shop- these are all new originals!

I will see you soon!

I'll be adding soon!

I just received a shipment of blank canvases! Well, ok, white lunchbox tins, sitting here ready to be mod podged, covered with beautiful papers, ribbons, flowers, buttons, and whatever else I might want to cover them with. I am looking forward to creating one, and I think I will be doing so as soon as my company leaves.

And, since I have company, there are no new cards or any new pictures to post today. I actually made a new one...baby boy card, but I didn't have any time to take any decent photos.

Looking forward to getting back to normal- thanks for waiting! ;)

There must be something about this!

What is the deal? Is this tin too plain? Ugly? I know it's one thing...it's still in my house! Nobody wants it! It's just about to expire, so I am facing the dilema: renew or not to renew.

A few weeks ago I took better photos of it so that it might attract more attention. Then I decided that I would put it as a featured item along with other "boy" items. There is still is! Looking at me everytime I go into my shop! Making me ask the question over and over...what shall I do with this thing?!!

I'll just feature it here and in a few days make the big decistion!
