Holy cow.

Listening


You guys are amazing.


Thank you so very much for your support, kind comments and excitement over the Life Artist stuff on Cafe Press. I am really excited about this little adventure...thinking about all kinds of things to add as time goes on. Make sure to sign up for the newsletter for additional information (besides just product releases) on my travel schedule, inspirational stuff, tips, etc.


And on the home front, Simon is enjoying his two weeks of Spring Break (total funding issue for the Early Education Program). TV/Videos in the morning and then something else outside/away from the house in the afternoon. He is seriously cracking me up.


And don't you just hate it when you can't find something in your space? I know I have two small circle punches around here somewhere...been searching for them all morning. They are most likely right in front of me...


And welcome to all of you who signed up for CKU-A San Jose last night. Love that event - looking forward to hanging out in June.


And the font on the photo above is from my new font CD. It's called Dirty :).


And my coffee is so tasty this morning.


And...A Designer's Eye for Scrapbooking with Patterned Paper is up for PREORDER now.


Dude, crazy around here!

    My 23rd birthday is coming up next Wednesday, so I've proceeded to send my mother and boyfriend an e-mail with links to the items I'd LOVE to receive from your Cafe Press Shop!!! :) hehe. So much for being subtle!!
    Hey, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, right?!

    Check your sewing machine! (That's where Cole hid the two memory cards I was missing.) I am ALWAYS missing something for scrapping. It's not like it travels out of the room, but still!

    oh, and if you were to purchase any of the t-shirts at cafe press for yourself, what size would you buy? No, I am not buying you one of your own designs, but have something else in mind. Thank you.

    rock on girl! (and simon too!)
    love what you are doing for the industry, making it more of a lifestyle than a hobby. LOVE THAT.
    it is so much more than just paper and adhesives.
