DIY coasters, Instagram, punctuation, washi tape feathers

I haven’t been on the ball at all since Christmas, but here’s to trying to get back in the groove! Hope you like some of these fun things I’ve spotted this week:

1. This tutorial for making your own feathers is awesome – I’m totally making a zillion patterned feathers for a project soon!

2. This is an awesome way to show off your pictures and make them useful at the same time – polaroid inspired coasters! I’ve made stamped coasters before but I think I’m going to have to try this DIY project out. Who doesn’t have pictures they love but are hidden away? Bring them into the light, my friends!

3. If you’re an instagram fan (and these days, who isn’t?) then you need to check out this deal. A 60 picture photo book and all you need to pay is the postage? Bring it on, I’m there! But it starts Saturday morning (February 23) and is only good for 24 hours so don’t wait!

4. I love Miss Four Eyes. If we lived close to each other and I actually knew her and was single and into girls, she might be the one. I haven’t told her that yet, she might think I was creepy or something. But love her, I do. And I especially love this post – I laughed out loud several times. (warning: She’s not your gentle, sweet, innocent blogger; she blogs in the nude. You’ve been forewarned if you choose to continue to her site and laugh hysterically.)

5. Keeping up with the funny – check out “8 New Punctuation Marks We Desperately Need.” Personally, I’ve been waiting for the sarcasm font but the Sarcastises will do just fine, thank you!

Have a fun and creative one!

He…

dirty nose from digging in the yard

…is not sleeping. Which would be fine if he stayed in his room and didn’t jump on other people to wake them up.

…makes the funniest faces. He’s just like my brother Matthew who was the bane of my existence growing up!

…loves his trucks and cars. He’s such a boy! But he really loves carrying around the tiny ones. He’s definitely mine!

…really is the cutest thing ever. When he’s not being evil, that is!

She…

at the park

…is being somewhat easier to get along with these days. Big sigh of relief here. I was about to donate her to charity…. 😉

…loves writing letters – both the alphabet and ones to mail. She’s getting pretty good at both!

…had her first bike ride yesterday and did really well. She loved every minute of it!

…really is the cutest thing ever. When she’s not whiny, that is!

He…

helping Miss M

…is procrastinating about writing the outline for his Studio Photography 101 Course.

…is itching to go on a long Geocaching spree.

…just bought me a very fancy, very sharp new knife just because. And because I always complain that mine won’t stay sharp. He wins the very nice husband award this week!

She…

selfie...

…is loving that spring has arrived and we can all go outside again.

….is still really enjoying the scrapcave – though the stuff is starting to close in on me again!

…has some new 100% wool felt that I can’t wait to play with!

…thinks that Instagram for Android is the bomb!

She…

napping with the trains

…sleeps in the strangest places.

…loves getting her picture taken.

She…

not pausing a second for the camera

…insists on sneaking into G’s room at night. He hates that.

…hates getting her picture taken.

P.S. Thanks Cathie, for the great recap idea!

Android, Clever Handmade, Instagram, Photoshop, Rainbow Tag LO, Ranger

1. I’m doing 12 on Twelve again today. Loved it last month and forgot all about it until I saw this post this morning to remind me! Who’s joining in? It’s not too late, there’s lots of day left!

2. Android finally got the Instagram app and I couldn’t be happier! And I’m also enjoying Ink361 to view my pics and pull them into Photoshop. I’ve heard Extragram is good too though, so I’ll check that out and see what I think. And if you want to follow my photostream my instagram name is saracees!

3. October Afternoon has this sketch challenge up today and though I’m not much of a sketch person, I love this one! Think I’ll have to try to make time to do a LO!

4. I have a another Paperie Picks blog post going live tomorrow and I’ll talk about this cute project:

Sneak peek!

I tweeted a sneak of it the other day but I’ll go into detail about the product in the blog post – awesome stuff!

5. I’m seriously considering another online class. I know, I’m addicted! But the current one – Sketchbook 4 – is awesome and is going to be a fantastic source of ideas once it’s done. The new one, Get Messy, is right up my alley these days – paint, ink, and mist, and a finished mini album in the end! Love the sound of it!

6. I have a fun class coming up on Sunday at The Paperie – the Rainbow Tag Layout. We’ll be having fun with Ranger and October Afternoon products, plus using LilyBee and Amy Tangerine alphas. There are a few spots left so call and sign up – it’s a cheery one, great for those new spring pics you’re taking!

The LO we’ll do in class is not exactly the same as this one – we’re using slightly different alphas and this original LO met a nasty end with a cup of hot chocolate – not a good scene! 🙂

Have a great day – hopefully it’s not as rainy in your neck of the woods as it is here!

Android, Instagram, kiddies

1. So much for getting back on track with the blog this week. Stomach flu hit this house hard and today is the first time I’ve been on my feet. M was the worst and is still in bed, curled up next to daddy who finally succumbed today.

 

2. We have dinner plans with my dad tomorrow – Good Friday tradition is always his house for salt fish, yum! Unfortunately, it overlaps with my SIL this year so we’re missing out on her house but I’m hoping to convince her to go with a different day next year! 🙂

3. Before they got sick, the kiddies were very excited for Easter Bunny to come. I’m crossing my fingers that they both are better by tomorrow and can enjoy the long weekend and their treats.

4. Saw this today and loved it. So easy that I may try to bang it out this evening – love how it looks!

5. Instagram is now on Android! It was the only app I envied on D’s iPhone and now it’s mine! Yay!

6. I’m hoping for beautiful weather and a healthy family this weekend – what are the chances?
