Outside My Window...

the sun is shining and the sky is bright blue

I am thinking...

that I don't blog often enough

I am thankful for...
morning coffee with cream


From the kitchen...

Wednesday~Hot Beef Sandwiches with gravy, mashed potatoes and green peas
Thursday~No cooking, I'll be at work all day.



I am wearing...

flannel nightgown and housecoat and wool socks - charming!

I am creating...

"inchies" at Bizzy B stamping class tonight!

I am reading...

That Summer in Sicily - M. de Blasi

I am hoping...

to sift through and let go of surplus kitchen stuff

I am hearing...

the old pendulum clock ticking

Around the house...

are a few loads of laundry to finish and a kitchen floor to mop.

One of my favorite things...

petting my cat - I have two but only one of them lets me pet him. Well, the other one might let me for a minute, but there's a chance he'll decide he's had enough and without warning, he'll bite and scratch.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:

Really looking forward to my class tonight!

Here is a picture that I am sharing...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Well, I'm very pleased to have finally made something in my new attic space! This top Valentine tag is the one I made for my daughter. She loves the colour pink!
This bottom tag, I made for my son - it was the first one I made and I tried to make it look less pink and girl-y by adding the music notes. I mailed it off to the west coast earlier this week and am hoping it arrived in time for today.

These are some of my first efforts at making tags and I hope my layouts improve as I get more experience. It's new to me to be designing as I go along with no idea how things will turn out. the process is fun even though a bit nerve-wracking!

Can any of you experienced creative readers tell me if it's normal to be afraid of creating a dud?
