Froy is ready for Valentine's day!

Yes, this is my kitten...who got big! He is a typical boy...doing whatever makes him feel good! He lays on some valentine pillows everyday from about 10 am until 3 pm. His schedule is grueling! At night he harasses my 2 other cats and tries to break into the bedroom...he got the squirt gun last night...several good squirts of water and he was running. I have allergies...but I love cats so I just don't sleep with them. My daughter named him Froy, because she loves "Operation repo". If you have not seen that show, you should see a few episodes, it is funny.

Be Mine Valentine!




Here are my Valentine Flash Cards! They are fun to put about your valentine decor. There is something about Valentine's Day that is so fun... remember being a kid and picking out your valentines? I remember buying a big book of them and cutting out the valentines. Most of them were too mushy and lovey dovey, so we all crossed out "Love" and put "Like". Also the teacher made you give a valentine to everybody....yikes! I loved making the valentine pouch to put valentines in!
One more thing...don't forget to watch the Charlie brown show...."Be my valentine Charlie Brown"..this year....it makes you think back to your school years!

2010 is here!



Here it is 2o10! I am off vacation, since my daughter is now back in school again. We had lots of fun during the break, but I am glad to be back creating! My poor husband had to work most of the time though.
I made these cute lil Valentine books during the break with a Christmas prezzie my husband got me, a book binder. Each valentine book has a cover tag and many old papers inside to write on or add lil pictures and ephemera. I added lots of different papers and ribbons and fancy yarn too. Of course I had to glitter too....I love glitter! These are going to on etsy.
