busy momma.

More often then not I get down because I don't feel like I've accomplished much other than doing the dishes and keeping my kiddo fed, but this weekend I can honestly say I've been a busy bee. I finished a painting that I think I'm going to end up cutting out and placing on cardboard:

Completely carved a stamp for Conrad's birthday invitation. I accidentally got a linoleum block instead of a rubber one and that was fun. not. haha. but it was a fun experience and I'm excited to make more, but definitely going with rubber til I get better at it! I'll eventually post a tutorial once I know a bit more about it. It's so much fun printing! I can't wait to learn to screen print! *drool*

Speaking of "drool" and screen printing, THE DAINTY SQUID & DEADWORRY are doing an AWESOME giveaway! Deadworry's t shirts are absolutely amazing. I think my favorite is owlopus.


haha. What could be better than an owl and an octopus hybrid??? C'mon! Anyways tonight shall be full of lots of baking! I really love Kayla from Dainty Squid's method of using gel food coloring to spruce cakes and things up so I think I'm going to try that!



Plus I have my new dinosaur cookie cutters to test out! Expect tons of pictures! Hope everyone is having a safe awesome weekend! Take care!

  3. Aww thanks everyone! and that is so sweet of you April! I can't wait to see it! Everything is resolved now, but things got a little bumpy as they tend to do! Luckily my sister in law is an AMAZING cake maker so hopefully she can hook me up with a dinosaur cake!
