I don't scrapbook,but I LOVE this piece by PunkyJane on Etsy.

Right now she is having a sale on this item,so I don't expect it to last long!Especially because she is offering a percentage of the proceeds from her shop to help BeadsofGlass who has cancer;which has spread to her brain.

Please be sure to visit her shop and help BeadsofGlass in this difficult time.

We need to find a cure for cancer!

Newest Featured Artfire Shop!

I want every single one of her yarns!

Gorgeous hand-dyed fibres!

Delightful names she has for them,too!

Are these not the cutest kids on the planet?!Notice the little one in the front there trying to make sure he gets in the shot while his sibling is more interested in the yard!Except for the night one these were all taken with me on the deck with them.And,yes,I can tell them apart!

My latest GoodWill shopping trip was an astounding success!
Not only some great deals on new pants for work(including Banana Republic!)-especially needed as I resign myself to not getting into my size 2s again:(-but some fab scarves(read fabric)!
Half of one wool scarf has already become a plush owl.I waste no time,I tell you!Pictures will follow.
Meanwhile my size 2 blue jeans have become not one,but 3 new bags!Pics will follow of them,too!
BTW,no,not all of my size 4s fit,either.Well,I am over 40.

After Katrina so many pets were left behind;never to see their homes and people again it breaks my heart.

Hopefully it breaks yours,too.
