get with the program mankie

i simply must step up my internet skills
of atleast spend more time 'surfing' or 'browsing' or whatever you kids call it nowadays
i am way too unaware of too many neato things
like craftster for instance...been around since 2003 or something and ive never heard of it...have you?
how cool is it? star trek crafts? oh my! and how they cater to my love of buttons, its grand
i signed up instantly and am already considering my entry for their next craft challenge (check out second place from the last one, again....buttons)
awesome

bulletin!! car crash in toy town!

reginald j cattington was run down by an out of control driver earlier today. the unnamed driver was suspected to be high on catnip as he couldnt wipe the smile of his face.



















there were two others in the vehicle at the time of the accident but no one could understand a word they said as they were sock pigs. One eyewitness was on the scene but turned out to be a jaded hipster sock puppet and was of little use.

babys gotta new pair of....

two of my most loveliest friends are having their first baby very very soon and today is the day of their baby shower. ive never been to a baby shower before so im not sure what to expect
i made them this diaper bag cuz i felt that all diaper bags should look sensible and not be brightly coloured and covered in cartoon animals, they should be made for the parents who have to carry the bag around, not for the little baby who wouldnt even notice anyways...you know what i mean?
it was my first time using such a complicated pattern (by complicated i mean more than 10 pieces, im a simple girl) but i think it turn out alright,f i guess ill find out later today....
