2 Years Ago

15 Comments art, copic, me, Uncategorized

I kind of realized the other day that its been about 2 years since I began my Copic journey. That sounds, at the same time, a long time and a not so long time bc I know I have a ton still I want to learn. But anyway, since Melissa and I are getting ready to open registration for our next round of Created from Color's Basic Copic Class I thought how embarassingly fun to compare THEN to NOW.....

Do it for YOU

16 Comments life, me, Uncategorized

{personal image} That's how I feel today. This weekend a stilted conversation led me to a revelation while I laid awake trying to sleep last night. I think on a few things in my life I've been waiting for things to happen or be done instead of just doing them and I'm done waiting. I feel very calm and empowered today. I feel like I can take on the world and give it the finger. I don't...

Happy Tia

Tiny Tia in her tiny tutu looking dress makes me smile :) My DD has dance class every Monday and I really think its the thing that is finally teaching her patience and she really loves it. She has her first recital coming up in a few weeks and just got her costume. Its oh so glittery and teal and flouncy fun. I can't wait to see her class put on their show! I'm happy that I finally got to do...

Have you ever had the urge…

9 Comments life, me, Uncategorized, wahm

to just sit upside down? Anyone? Maybe its a sign that not enough blood is getting to my brain or something but I have had the urge to just sit literally heels over ass for a couple of months now. This might be my most random post ever but all in all it kind of make me wonder... is it a sign of being complacent and subconsciously I want to shake up the norm with an off the wall idea or?...

Fall Walk

8 Comments life

We went on a fall walk a couple weekends ago that will probably be the last nice one of the season. Sunshine, cool but not cold, where everything just seemed to GLOW because it was just that type of day. We went to the next town out in the boonies over and walked the historial bridge. It used to be one of the swing bridges that cars could drive over, in the 1860s, but now it neither swings or...

Going CAS

5 Comments copic, life

For the reveal today the Odd Girls shared their creations using our new curly girl Gwen. I loved coloring her and when I went to put her on a card it just seemed like it needed to be simple to show off our lovely new girl. I don't think you can get more CAS than this card :) The pattern paper is last years Dear Lizzy Christmas line paired up with a cream Bazzill cardstock. I used two...

New Oddie in the house!

11 Comments life, selena

I'm a little distracted today :) We have a new member of the Odd family here and her name is Selena :) Named after Selena Kyle, the Catwoman lol. We brought her home last night, it was kind of a last minute happening. I had been buggin hubs to get a kitty and we saw her on an ad on Craigslist. Her owners were moving out of state and couldn't keep her where they were moving to. If they didn...

The last couple days…

2 Comments life

Happily we are back with power and internet! YAY! Tuesday around 9pm we had a storm rip thru SouthWest Michigan. Where we are we were on the northern edge of the storm and seriously, I don't want to see what happened to the people "in the red" of the storm if our area was any indication! Hubs and I drove around a bit Wednesday evening, we went out to get something that didn't require milk for...

Play!

Wow! I wish I had another crafty project to share today bc that would mean I had spent the day in the air conditioning but we spent from 8am till 6pm with a 30 min lunch out in the 95 muggy soup weather putting this beauty together :) The kids are in love. Hubs is on vaca this week so I'm getting some time consuming things done and he's out finishing the last bit this morning :) Even...
