I’ve got a few super cute things to add to the shop and will add them Monday, Jan. 29th at noon! Along with the update I will be adding optional gift wrapping service to all orders! I have lots of cute wrapping planned for you, but in lieu of Valentines day the first will be this:

I’m busy busy, but have found a few minutes to play with www.dumpr.net/ Ever since I watched great expectations, I kind of had a secret dream to have my own show… of course, it would not consist of these types of things, but more of the art I do w/out my computer…oils and maybe some ink drawings, which I have not shared a whole lot of b/c I have not done a whole lot recently… I have just started trying to replicate some of that style I use when drawing with ink via Illustrator, but it is slow going, I need a tablet or something, b/c there are so many lines and it’s really time consuming…so while I do find spare moments when I can play with fun tools like the one above, I dont really have time yet to redraw some of my ink drawings into illustrator…so, for now, this is it! I have been finding a bunch of old drawings while organizing the office though, so maybe I’ll scan a couple for you to see what I’m talking about!

HOpe you had a super happy weekend! I made this prototype of Mr. SheepCake! He didn’t turn out quite right proportionally speaking, his body is much bigger than it should be and his ears are not black (I forgot) so not too “sheepy” …You can however remove him from his ‘grassy’ base, which I love! I don’t love the dowels so much, but this is just a test run! Next time I am going to use wire & cover with the clay and I think it will look better…
I just want to make tons of these, I love that they are so BIG! He’s about 14 inches tall on his base! The thought of making a bunch of costumes for them makes me happy, but I’ve got to get rid of those dowels!!!
On another note, JIn and Earl are back on air with the 101 web design show (Here’s their site http://www.101webdesignshow.com/ but you can download on itunes)! They make me laugh, it’s nice to hear them again! ^_^

Pirate Cakes Stationery available in the shop!
Here is a little guy I stitched together a while back, he has 1 brother and a sister too (brother is black and sister is baby blue). They are called PUCK’s, Half penguin + half duck! I’d really love to gain some more confidence in my sewing skills and make a whole rainbow of different shape and size Puck’s! Maybe it’s a face only a “mother” could love, but he grows on ya, I’m telling you, pretty soon you’ll think he’s better looking than the super handsome Mark Ruffalo! *swoon*
In other news, I am gearing up to add the new ‘fill-in-the-blank-style’ calling cards as well as a few other new items to the shop! Maybe, just maybe I’ll have a new PUCK to put up for adoption too….ya, today seems like a nice day to sew! ^_^
Have a great weekend!
