New Stuff!

You know those people that laugh at their own jokes? Well, that's me. And this new ring set may be an example of that. I have had this in my head forever & finally sat down to make them. I think they're hilarious! My 'DORK' & 'NERD' ring sets sold, so why not "HAWT DAWG" ya know? Find this latest creation in the shop.

And I have been a bizzy crafty chik this week. Mostly working on custom orders. I LOVE changin' up the pace & making something different. These tiny cupcakes await their tiny cherry toppings.
I even got a special request for some sponge cakes! It's their first time in the shop & I'm so happy! This photo is of 4 half-finished cakies.

And here's one of my crafty projects done 'the old fashioned way' because of my lack of computer graphic knowledge. I chose to doodle my own owlies & create magnets with my button machine for a customer who is having an owlie party. I think they turned out really cute! I think it's fun to have a tiny piece of original art this way!

In fact, I was so inspired (by myself--haha!) that I created some one-inch "love" buttons for the shop. They can be made into magnets or pins.

I have a busy Saturday ahead of finishing up custom orders & packaging up some of my 'Writing on the Wall' book art for delivery to the Bellevue Art Museum!! I'm so excited!
Happy Weekend!
