HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY DAY....

Happy evening to you all!


found this little pink and LAVENDER bunny at a sale...she was in a box under a table...lady said she put her away because she didn't think anyone would WANT HER....because she was old and CRUNCHY...lol...(she's filled with excelsior) I said heck "I'M OLD AND CRUNCHY TOO!" we'd make quite the PAIR...she laughed..and said well take her with you then!!! FREE!!!! she looks soooo happy with my baby doll, eh?

Been a rollercoaster of a ride the last 24 hours..well heck the last couple of months! Think we got the house then we don't then we do but they want DOUBLE rent and security dep...omg...
BUT WE NOW HAVE A HOUSE!!! YEAH!!! 5+ BEDROOMS! (one is in the basement so thinking that will become a new studio...) whooop whoop!!!!
We don't move in until June 1 but that gives us lots of time to get things packed etc...

This next month we will be going to the Wisconsin dells to spend some time with BETH!!! and her family! Totally excited!

Then in May for my birthday..i'll be heading out to Seattle to see my brother...(was a Christmas gift from Kaleigh! (anyone out there or any places i need to see? never been there!) i'll be there may 5-12...

Well the toothfairy has visited for the THIRD TIME this month! (I think maddy is thinking of this as a parttime job!!!) lol







Made a couple of Easter decorations..one for Shannon's work and one for maddy's teacher..




got a bit of art done this week too...(actually i'm AHEAD of the game now...!!) With the moving bit...i can concentrate on that...without rushing the art...

for some reason this banner piece for tamara would NOT lay straight on the scanner..but you can get the drift of it...



This front to back piece for peggy has my mother-in-law in a bit of an altered state (hee hee) when she was a baby...in a couple of different poses...



theme of the next spread is jennifer's WINDOWS OF THE PAST...sitting in the foreground are my great grandparents in Czechoslovakia...




oh goodness...maxx had this dramatic temper tantrum...wanted more "CHOCOLATE MILK"...TO DRINK...(Second full cup...)

threw himself on the ground....wailing


(is she looking...do i have her attention?)


(more wailing) tossing down the cup with a thud...


maybe a pout will help...


and another pout....


since nonnie won't react..uncle ROBBIE WILL BE MY SAVIOUR!!!


Danielle got to dress up for HIPPIE day at her station...she had to come over for a bit of dressing...to LOOK the part...


hmmm...someone was BOASTING that they were having a bout with SPRING weather while we were dumped upon by heavy wet snow!!! so i tucked a couple handfuls into an envelope and it's whooshing it's way to their door as i type...hmmm wonder where it will end up? hope the snow SURVIVES the journey!





i did paint up the front of the envelope...the pictures didn't work too well... and as the snow melted..it was making quite the display of color....hee hee...just a bit of love from me to YOU...(KNOW WHO YOU ARE!) ENJOY!


Here is a bit of St. Patrick's day art i did..for a one on one with sweet DAWN!.. .layers of vintage fabric and stitching and lace and buttons on a vintage book cover...then a couple of brass butterflies floated by to catch a peek and i stitched them on too...lol I received the most beautiful canvas from her...I took some pics of it but for some reason the camera is having issues...i'll add them once i can get them downloaded...in all their glory...the cool part is that we sent them off to each other and they BOTH ARRIVED TO THEIR LOCATION ON ST. PATRICKS DAY!!!



i love one on one swaps....just let me know what you'd like to swap!
