Shop

I have been filling up my etsy shop with lots of goodies. In a very perfect world I would be able to hire a photographer who could teach me how to shoot the best possible product photos ever. I just cannot understand how to use a camera.  I always want to blame the camera but I know the saying about not blaming the tools...Click the picture for more details. I do free gift wrap!

New in Shop!

I just added these to my shop. They come in a couple of sizes. Go take a look!

Balloons!

Thank you thank you to everyone who expressed concerns about my injured finger. It is much much much better and stitches free. I'm still keeping an eye on it but I think I'm pretty much in the clear.

It has been quite an amazing week working with Cannonball Press. Tomorrow night is the reception from 4:30-7 so if you are in the area you should definitely stop by. The guys are going to be doing a bit of a performance piece and the printmaking students get to be part of it so that will be tons of fun.

I just discovered this amazing website called We Love It. Is this website old news and I'm just now catching up? That wouldn't surprise me. But it's got tons of great images so I searched for some beautiful ones with balloons and this is what I got. Can't I just make balloon art forever and ever?

Also my good friend Adrienne sent me this gorgeous photo that she found on flickr. Check out this site for even more gorgeous pics. Thanks, Adrienne, for thinking of me!

thank you thank you

Here's another of my favorite birthday party photos. This is a family photo. My mother is the cute little baby on the left side that looks like she's anxious for cake and balloons. My uncle is the smug little boy on the left with the suspenders. He's my father's brother. There may be other cousins or relatives in the photo but I haven't been able to identify them. This is my absolute favorite party photo. Look at the balloons! And the party dresses! Don't you want to be there?

I want to thank everyone for the great comments I've been receiving on my posts. It looks like I'm getting some new readers so Welcome welcome! I've also received a few blog awards and tags and am anxious to get to those but today I'm a little strapped for time because I'm getting to the studio so late and need to get some plates etching and some drawings started. Tomorrow may be a little easier to slow down. Today my morning was filled with waffles and crossword puzzles and a little sample of Joan Baez music and it was quite delightful. I hope th rest of my day is just as nice. And yours too...
