i wanted to let any readers that may still be visiting my blog (thank you!) that i've decided to take a break from blogging for a little while.
i actually *bought* a card the other day! i just don't have time to do anything crafty these days and things will just get busier because i have a heavier workload this semester, and i still have to write my thesis. i've decided to research social media, which i think will be very interesting, but i don't know how i will fit it in. they may extend the deadline for all of us though, which would be great.
i've also met a few other expat moms through baby groups and we get together often. and because we seem to have skipped spring again and went straight to summer, i want to be outside more.
so i just wanted to let you know and i leave you with a pic of the little muffin, at 8 mos.
moxie fab world has a beautiful tuesday trigger on right now, and i ♥♥♥
anything hearts. 
here's my take on it:
i used different shades of pink paper, scallops, hearts and patterned paper to try to match the pic. i also added a clear heart, which i punched from some plastic packaging. the sentiment is a srm sticker.
we had a 4.8 earthquake here yesterday. i felt it, the boy didn't, although we were both sitting at the kitchen table.
i had to make a sympathy card. seemed quite fitting to use one of the final (and as usual, beautiful) sketches from 2sketches4you. 
it's really too bad they are calling it quits. i haven't made too many cards lately, but definitely, for sure, 2s4u was the very first place i looked for ideas and inspiration. the sketches and beautiful creations there always got me going on a card or project. anybody have any ideas for other challenge sites you like?
i flipped the sketch. the flower i made from some floral wrap. i cut a strip and twisted it while making a circle and used lots of hot glue. the leaves are flower petals i cut up.
the little muffin is now 6 months old, how time flies as they say. we regularly go to a baby group and she has become very interested in the other babies there. it's so cute to see her watching them, and wanting to touch them. we also started solid foods, just rice cereal so far and she seems to like it.
i wrote a final last week, and now have a month off before school starts again, though i plan to start working on my thesis. but i have to decide on a topic first, haha.
we got a bit of snow here again yesterday, after about a week of temps up to 16c. sure felt like spring for a while there! thanks for stopping by!
