hey buttons. hi monday.

Some random Sunday night musings.

Check out this postcard.

Loving the heart buttons all lined up. I’m thinking about projects that need more cowbell buttons. Feeling EXHAUSTED from travel, but glad to be back home. It’s always a ‘aw man’ moment when you get back to reality and everything is just as you left it – like it or not.

oh suns

Like this embossed suns paper project (That’s core’dinations cardstock in effect- it’s cool). I have to decide where I’m taking it. I thought vacation would help clear up my vision on it, but it hasn’t so I’ll set it aside for now.

Looking forward to? MONDAY, a new week, and getting back to exercise. I swear I feel more lethargic and chunky just from lack of chugging tons of H2O and exercise while I was away.

Off to drink more water and get much needed sleep.

(PS- read nothing noteworthy, good, great, or otherwise memorable while away. dang!)

oh my.

I’m swooning & besotted…

fiskwhy

with this punch.

I have to give props to EK for this new punch design. 1) I so *needed* a fleur de lis punch. SO NEEDED. 2) A compact, stackable punch has been much needed. This new toy so will NOT replace my squeeze punches (they’re easier to use + I heart Fiskars)… but if there’s a design like this that doesn’t come in fiskars squeeze form that I NEED? then heck yeah, I’m on it.

I’m just noticing how in the photo 2 fiskars tools are shown with my new EK punch love. It’s like my Fiskars tools know I’ve strayed a little…

random images.

first, perhaps the only gucci I will ever own. (this is a free sample I got from Sephora…)

flora

I adore it’s little box and have been keeping it in my crafting area because it’s sooo pretty and I don’t want to put it away.

My grandma is giving away… well darn near everything she’s got as she prepares to move in with my aunt. She let me have these kickin’ individual creamers. I used to pour the milk for my cereal with them.

animals

and third up- my bike.

new bike

To make a LONG saga short, I wanted a pink cruiser… but wound up with this bike (named Brutus) and all is happy in bike-riding (aka calorie burning) land ‘o Flaum.

I’m back to the ye olde grindstone… more tomorrow!
