my fridge is looking pretty darn awesome these days, haha!

these pics do not do these magnets justice! (in fact, i couldn't do any adjustments to my cam cause the batteries decided to start to die out AND of course i ran out of my mega pack of batteries!) but, thanks so, so, so much jmiller, you did an AMAZING job! i love 'em all =)

received my insanely awesome package from bsonlytoots today!


onesies for my little rock n' roll baby!


Gabriel doesn't quite know it yet, but he's a big fan of Pooh! (haha, meaning i am!)


my husband's favorite!

thank you so, so, much bsonlytoots! these pics do not show the TRUE awesomeness of the onesies! we loved 'em, thanks!!

So, I'm not entirely sure why, but for the past month or so I've been on a magnet
kick! I've received some pretty awesome magnets in some recent swaps and that's just helped to propel my magnet kick even farther, lol! So, I was wondering...would anyone be interested in a magnet swap?? This is what I had in mind:

It wouldn't be a super big swap; a small one. I'm thinking maybe 6 magnets? 5 can be centered around your partners likes/themes/interests/etc. The last one can be a magnet of your choice. I know marble magnets are (were?) popular, however they are kinda, sorta, easy to make so I was thinking 3-5 marble magnets would equal 1 magnet? Also should there be like a set rule that creativity is a must? I mean that, it is super easy to just print out pics or whatever of your partners themes/interests and stick them on some magnet backing. 1 or 2 would be okay, but I think people should stretch their imaginations a bit more than just that.

One more thing, if there is enough people interested in getting this swap going, would anyone be willing to organize (hopefully following most of what was just said/mentioned )?  If enough people want to do it and no one wants to organize I am totally willing, the only thing is I have an 8 month old son who keeps me mighty/insanely busy during the day so the only time I'd have to the any organizing would be after 10pm. Also, I'd have to keep the swap small, like maybe 10, just to insure I have enough time to give everyone in the swap my complete attention. Well, let me know what you all think! Happy crafting everyone!

received my WONDEFUL package from  StephanieGravatt yesterday! i absolutely love it!

Here's mine!


I've yet to start crackin' on wrapping presents, haha!


Another angle.


Top half. I was going for a candy theme with ginger bread men and lollipops and peppermint candies.


Bottom half. I copyed the usage of white lights and a white garland from my mom since that's what our Xmas trees always had while growing up!

So I decided I want to be Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween. Only, you know, not fortunate enough to get away from the Big Bad Wolf! So I'm gonna have scratch marks on my arms and chest, maybe neck. The husband and I decided to play around with the makeup today to see what we could come up with. We used liquid latax, toliet paper, makeup (my regular, every day makeup!) and, of course some blood!









Oh, we also used Lippsstix 's awesome tutorial. After I showed the husband that post, he knew he wanted to be a zombie!
