January 2009 Birthday Swap Gallery

They will be hard to part with, I'm keeping some favourites. But I listed stationary because I do send a lot of cards. They go to people I care about though!

[BTStars]

Yay!  I'm so glad you like them!  It's funny, because I had planned out about 12 and then as I kept creating them, I got more and more ideas!  Jeez, I probably could have done every single Beatles song-but I ran out of cards and time!   

[Retro_Rose]

Well all your efforts are totally appreciated. I love the Hey Bulldog card. It's a fun song to play. Not many people know it.

[BTStars]

That's funny.  My mom used to play that song for me all the time as a kid.  While doing these cards, I listened to every song I did, to make sure that the cards kind of resemble the song.  One card I was going to do didn't turn out right.  It was for Obladi Oblada.  Well, it turns out that the baby LOVES that song and starts jumping up and down when she hears it!

[Retro_Rose]

That's SOOOO cute! It's such a bouncy song. Most kids get excited about that type of Beatles work. 

[BTStars]

Yeah it was also nice knowing that she likes happy songs.  Her other favorite song is Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones.  I like the song, but it is getting kinda old (considering that I have to sing it at least 2-3 times a day!)

I got my other birthday gift over the weekend...gigantic pillowcases from Fraugee728! Here is my action shot!


And, yes, my sheets are that wrinkly. I hate ironing sheets when hubby and dog and I are just going to wrestle on them anyway. Here is a closeup if anyone is interested.


There are so wonderfully made, and my pillows don't stick out the end. Perfection! Thank you!

I found my camera! :-D And without further ado, my beautiful hook roll from eightdandelions!



Thank you!

I got my other birthday gift over the weekend...gigantic pillowcases from Fraugee728!

Yay!  I'm glad they fit with some room!  They look super polka dotty in picture form...haha.  I mean, I know they are, but whoa!

I received the Cutest Tape Measure Ever from Hollistercobabe.

My kids tried to swipe it right away. Thank you so much I just love it.
