Wednesday...Baby Bear Numbers

Hi, it seems since I am posting every other day, the days are coming at me faster! lol I 've been working on these little bears to use for baby's first 6 months, or first six years, first 6 days...you decide and believe they turned out just adorable and so did many of my local friends, who requested them in different colors.
.
So I've decided to give it a try and post them for sale in 4 different colors...Blue, Pink, Yellow or Green. They will be shipped within 4 days of order, (or sooner) since I will create them as the orders come in.  Here is a set in green, the flowers may vary and so will the little bear facial expressions since they hand painted, but not by much. Stickles, chalk, glossy accents and distressing is used on this little guys. I take great care in packageing them and will send you and email upon completion of your set.

If you would happen to want 1 - 12 instead of only 1-6 just order 2 sets and email me with your specific request at  --   justafeww@gmail.com 

 
Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of the week and God Bless!!

Monday and OHH What BIG eyes you have!

Hiya...so, great 4th of July? Mine was! We had our kids and grandkids all together and we ate some really good food.  Ended the night with a lil'firework action in my front yard. Brandon loved it! It was a nice change from us driving downtown to the beach to see the pros put on a display...which is always awesome, but fighting the crowds after you spend fifteen minutes looking for parking is not very awesome.  Instead we stood around and did them ourselves. It brought back such wonderful memories for me, since that is how we used to do it when my girls were little.  All in all, it was a Blessed day and we have all those soilders who fought for our independance to thank! 

Ok...on with the craft.  Here to show is this set of 3 big eyes babies. lol too cute!


 I have always drawn big eyes on my creations. Mom said it was because I had such big eyes my self that I found it normal for everything else to have huge eyes! I don't know if that is the case or not, but looking back on all my drawing, everything I drew had huge eyes indeed! lol too funny.
 
Thanks for stopping by!!

ECLIPSE WAS AWESOME! and look at my 6 months of baby...

I got home at 2:30 am from watching Eclipse! Couldn't wait till tomorrow, I had to go watch it. It was the best movie yet...the warewolfs rock in this movie.
 And of course Jacob is...well, you all go watch it ..it's awsome. 
 Nothing much happened today, it was nice and cloudy outside and I bummed around the house all day.
I am excited to report that  my "Our Story" mini album sold on ebay today
and I'm quite happy about that!! yay! 

I 've listed the following book this time, I called it "My First Six Months" cause on each page is a little baby bear holding a number...1 thru 6 :)  I think it turned out soooo cute. 
Take a look...

This book measures 11 x 5.

The item of the day...TAGS

Hello and Good morning, its 6am in Florida and I am so happy to be hearing thunder! Maybe it will rain and cool it down a little bit. Its been miserably hot around here the past few weeks. Rain is always welcomed. I know my Chow, Osa will appreciate some rain. She has really thick black fur.

Well yesterday I spent most of the day preparing my kitchen floor so I could put down some wax, and it turned out wonderful. It shines like its wet! I actually have ceramic tile down and when we got it,  I chose a mat finish...well im so over mat I want shiny, soooooooooooooooo, I now have  shiny floors! Let me show you some before and after pics....

This is Before...

And this is After...Wow right? and this is with it dry!!! yay!
AND...its NOT slippery!
AND it doesn't show foot prints...it did before while mat but not now, that is odd huh?!
 I love it...lol



I also wanted to share this little video of some tags I have up for auction on Ebay. Check 'em out.
thanks for stopping by and leave me a comment I would love to  meet all of ya'all.

Speak into the Camera... and Our Story Album

Hi all...its Wednesday! yay! half way thru the week and all is well. No broken bones, no bad news to report so all is well.  I have been trying to video tape myself so I can upload it to YouTube, and so far, with the help of my daughter we have tried 3 or 4 times, with no success! lol  For some reason, I get all tongue tied, my hands want to do their own thing and words seems to miraculously transform into different sounds...I try saying "so you can add pictures" but instead "so you can add papers" comes out!
Speaking into the Camera -  not so easy for me I've found out. So no video "yet". I WILL complete it by Friday though.  I'm calling it "Fantabulous Fridays!" since I plan on post a new video each Friday...what-cha-think?  My daughter Krystal thought of it...a mixture between Fantastic and Fabulous, I love it! 
Anyway, I hope you are all having an awesome week, staying out of the heat! Its in the 100's here in Florida! yikes right?  So in an attempt to keep you indoors, here are some pictures of my lastest mini album. Stay inside and visit with me for a few.  It measure 6x6,  has 14 pages, 9 tags and there are about 20 places for photos and / or jouranling and I think it turned out really cute...what you all think?  Leave me a comment, I love comments!

I will be posting a tutorial on how these insert pages were created, so stay tuned. :)


 

Thank you so much for stopping by!
Check back again Friday for a new post.
God Bless.

The Stork has arrived...on a MONDAY!


Hi! Well before I knew it Friday was gone and I missed my post! bad me! But it's Monday, so I'm starting fresh. I used to look at Mondays as everyone else, you know...the BLAH day of the week. "OH darn it's Monday!" but thanks to my close friend, Fabiola, who using the powers of Facebook and one little comment made, she changed my entire "Monday" outlook.  She treats Monday's as a New start, a fresh beginning, as yet another opportunity to accomplish what you set out to the past week but didn't complete. So, now, I love Mondays, cause it means I can Start that diet I didnt follow, Start the week with a healthier attitude and ummm **cough** Start on my plan of posting to my blog every Mon-Wed-Friday "at least"! So instead of feeling bad cause I missed Friday's post, I feel great that it's Monday and I can start ALL over again, FRESH! Thanks Fabi for the fabulous outlook!!! love ya!!
Now, I would like to share this little Stork mini chipboard album. It's  3x3 I believe and has lots of space for journalling and mini pictures.   


 
Thanks for visiting, have a wonderful Monday!!
