Blooming Tuesday

2009-05-12T10:50:00.005-04:00

Well, I didn't get any pictures to participate in Bloomin Tuesday this week so I'm making it Kitty Tuesday over on my blog! I love flowers but I love kitties even more so here are my kitties!! >^..^<

This is Nicky. We call him Knicknack! He is a male ragdoll and can be very fresh!! He will snuggle up with you and purr, then bite ya! But he is beautiful!

This is Callie. She was meowing out my office window for days at the beginning of the winter. I fed her a few times and then she let me pet her. Then I realized she had no claws. :(
I took her in my house, posted signs in the neighborhood, hoping to find her family, but nobody claimed her.
Soooooooo SHE'S MINE NOW! :) She is Super Sweet!!!

However, over at http://msgreenthumbjean.blogspot.com/ some bloggers posted great blooms this Tuesday so check it out!!

How to enhance a flower with some text....

2009-05-01T21:59:00.011-04:00

I have so many Prima flowers and I love them but sometimes I want to change them up a bit!

I first punched out some large circles from a play book. Then I inked them with a gold ink for a light effect.

I cut slits in them...

For each flower I used 2 layers. Crumbled them up a bit...

Then placed a blue prima flower in the center...

Added a X brad to one and a O brad to another!

I also made some more and used them as such. I used blue ink on the top layer and brown ink on the bottom layer for this one...

This frame is for sale in my etsy store

In Memory of Amanda

2008-07-19T11:32:00.000-04:00

Well, we aren't having a good week. :(
We had to put Amanda to sleep today.
She will be greatly missed! Nicknack (our ragdoll)
is still looking for her. He's not going to be happy
being the only cat. We will all miss Amanda very much!

Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes though.
We really appreciate it!

Update on Amanda

2008-07-17T11:40:00.000-04:00

It looks like Amanda has Diabetes. We aren't sure at this point if we will be able to control it or not. She may have other things going on. We will find out in a few days. Thanks so much for being such good friends and all the E-mails. I'll let everyone know as soon as I know more. THANKS!

I didn't get to the animal section on ETSY this week due to the unexpected turn of events.
I hope to get to it next week.

In memory of Rexy!

2008-07-16T12:03:00.000-04:00

Rexy passed away yesterday. He had an inoperable tumor.
He will be greatly missed!

Amanda is still holding on so we hope that we will get good news on her
later today!!

Hi all!

2008-07-13T15:34:00.000-04:00

Father's Day

2008-06-15T05:58:00.000-04:00

Haven't blogged in a while. Things have been been crazy and now Father's Day will
be at our house too. Since I lost the women that was helping with the kids (she got a
F/T job offer) I haven't had a chance to add my new items to my etsy site. Hopefully that will change as soon as the kids are out of school and I have a new "mommy's helper". God knows I can use the help! I will be adding my necklaces soon and a beautiful artist journal!! I also will have
a bunch of note cards. All one of a kind, of course. All should be ready to shop for by next week.

First order complete!

2008-05-29T17:43:00.000-04:00

ahhhhh....my first order was to Whimsy Boutique and Gallery for 8 frames and 6 sets of cards!
Now I can start getting ready for the 60 people that will be coming to my house for Niko's 4th birthday party on Sunday! UGH!

Wholesale order!!!!

2008-05-28T22:08:00.000-04:00

Well I got my first order! It was a wholesale order so I didn't really make money on it BUT
I love that my frames and cards will be in the Grand Opening of Whimsy Boutique and Gallery in
Chesterton, Indiana! WOOOHOOO!

Blah...rainy Tuesday

2008-05-20T12:51:00.000-04:00

It's Tuesday and all is well, except for the weather!
Hoping to craft more today and get my necklaces up on my site.
No buys on Etsy yet...but I did have people mark Sassy and Dapper as favorites!

Sassy and Dapper is open for business!

2008-05-18T21:39:00.000-04:00

I have some more stuff to work on this week and I'm looking forward to it. So far I have only posted a few items, as you can see from my gallery above, but it's a start!

TGIF!

2008-05-16T21:48:00.000-04:00

I'm just so happy it's Friday. I am hoping to be able to

I love Prima Marketing's stuff. From the flowers to the say it in crystals,
and I can't forget the clear albums now....I LOVE IT ALL! Love Prima!
Hope I win!! :)

Getting ready...

to open my store at www.sassyanddapper.etsy.com.
ahhhh...I had a chance to work on my site
www.sassyanddapper.com this week and create
some crafts to post this weekend on Etsy.
It wasn't easy to find the free time to design
but free time doesn't come easy, these days!
Tonight, I joined a great site www.splitcoastampers.com.
I found a dress card in paper crafts magazine and it said
the template came from Split Coast. They had some really nice templates
and ideas. Highly recommended!
Well it's late and I still want to work on the site
a little so....signing off...nighty, nighty!
