I had all these designs that I had originally made to be printed onto cloth and made into little stuffed ornaments (which we did), but I was looking at them and thinking what cool garlands they'd make so we got them printed up on some good cardstock too (that's what yesterday's pictures were of). Snip, snip, snip, thread them on some skinny ribbon, and voila-- garlandic goodness! Those last Santas are currently adorning our living room curtains. Those crazy skellies might have to stay up all year in the studio.

What do you think? Do you have a favorite?

Almost. . .

Looks like we'll have a Something-New Sunday tomorrow! 

Here's a peek at what I've been up to. . .

 

 

What am I doing with all these pages?

I'll show you later.

Little Gift Tags for You

I had planned to ring in the new month in style.* I wanted to have my mantle decorated all merry-like and share the happy pictures. However, yesterday was one of those days. You know the ones. The kind of day that really should just be spent napping, snacking, and watching old movies. But I ignored the day's obvious destiny, and mistakenly got out of bed. Bad move. Every little thing went wrong, the culmination of which was when the fully decorated mantle came crashing to the tile floor. There wasn't even any cussing left in me by that point. I just sighed, drooped my shoulders, and began cleaning up all the very many tiny bits of shattered glass. I know, pitiful. 

But today is new day! And I have a feeling its gonna be a good one. The fact that the sun is shining beautifully is icing on what's sure to be good-day cake. And what better way to celebrate a good day than with presents? And you're surely gonna need some adorable gift tags for those presents, 

so here you go. . .

I like to print them on adhesive paper so I can use them like stickers.

I hope none of you are having one of  those days. 

And if you are, I hope tomorrow is better.
