ThanksGiving . . .
I didn't have time as I had hoped to prepare a special Thanksgiving treat for you. Things have been a little crazy here. We've had some unusual stresses in our family recently and then to top things off, my husband was in the hospital all last weekend after having a mini-stroke or TIA on Friday. He is doing fine, no permanent damage, but a bit of a mortality and reality check for us. My family and I have so many blessings to be thankful for and we are, but I want you to know I am particularly thankful for all of my art, blog, and customer friends. Your support all along my journey has been one of the best, most precious gifts of my life. So, I am thankful for ALL OF YOU! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Anther humungous 40% off sale . . .
Not to be missed, Deviant Scrap is having another giant sale! Most designers, including me, are offering 40% off most kits (excluding new releases). It won't be happening again for quite some time so if you missed the last big sale, here's one more chance to stock up! (picture below linked to my shoppe) I just put all the sale prices up tonight and the sale ends Sunday at midnight.



While you're shopping at Deviant Scrap this weekend, you might be interested in this very special swap we are having . . . a cookie recipe exchange. More details can be found by following the linked picture below, but participants will email me their cookie recipes decorated in whatever tradition or theme they wish. At the end of the swap, participants will be given a special download code to download all of the recipe cards from all the other participants gathered in a handy digital kit. (no mailing necessary)



I know some of you hate seeing it too early, but I've been bitten by the Christmas bug! Actually, I think I've been stifling the urge to Christmas-tize things for about a month now. To show off my new Christmas kits, here are a couple of new pieces . . .

Happy Christmas

That's all and no more . . .

I've been busy thinking all day. And now it's time to . . .

Just be

The little digital ATC above will be popping up here again soon. I feel another prize drawing coming on soon! Sweets for the Sweet Contest coming later this week!

That'll teach me . . .
Guess I should pay more attention to my email. It has been sadly neglected. Cleaned out over 1300 messages between my two addresses this weekend and ran across a few that I wish I had seen earlier! I don't know how I miss such great messages! Found out from Seth Apter of The Altered Page that stemming from his project The Pulse, a survey of 150 online artists, my blog was listed as a favorite blog to visit! Who knew? I often think I scare people away! You can see the link here. And while you're at Seth's blog, check out this link too! Well, just check everything out at Seth's! I got lost in there for over an hour tonight.


Today's self observations . . .
  • I have been craving turkey. I go and get slices out of the fridge like some might take cookies from the cookie jar. Hope this goes away soon.
  • I get tired of wearing pants about 9:00 every night. I have to go put on the stretchy jammies. (could be from all the turkey I ate during the day) The really sad thing is, I don't always shower and get my pants on until 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Thank goodness I don't have a real job.
  • I am a fixer. I want to fix everything, always . . . and am so disappointed when I realize I can't fix most things.
  • I have fallen out of grace with two people already this week. Could be a long week. You live, you learn.

Some swap pieces done today

I am participating in a couple of private swaps. One is for text inspired skinnies. I chose fortune cookies as my inspiration since I find them to be one of my favorite things to read (if you knew my attention span for reading, you'd totally understand).

These are four 3 x 5 collages using a face from flickr's sassyarts, bodies from moonfaires.etsy.com, shoes from lisasalteredart.etsy.com, backgrounds from flickr's joes sistah, images snipped from a magazine, and home made text. The faces and bodies were hand-colored.


Have you noticed fortune cookie fortunes are getting funnier? Here are some of my favorites I have read recently . . .
  • What you just ate wasn't chicken.
  • Try another cookie.
  • Ignore previous cookie.
  • Everyone agrees you are the best.
  • Don't panic.
  • Speed is a ppoor substitute for accuracy.
  • Stop procrastinating, tomorrow.
  • I cannot help you for I am just a cookie.
  • Wow! A secret message for your teeth!
  • When you squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out . . . because that is what is inside.
  • If your work is not finished, blame the computer.
  • You are the crispy noodle in the vegetarian salad of life.
  • Buy the red car.
  • You will be hungry again in one hour.

The other swap is for heart inchies.
