Who Hearts Cat Tooth? ;]

So, I really love making Cat Tooth(s)....this is my second one, but I already have at least two more planned.

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays! I found my holiday season to be filled to the brim with yummy food. I had two friends staying with me who are most gourmet, so my tastebuds were never bored. & in the interim between now & New Year's, I plan on trying to finish up a lot of halfway constructed plush. I want to transform them from a zombie gang into a happy plush army.

Parting Ways...

Now that I've had two sales (*whee*), I am very conscious of the parting process when I package up one of my creations. I tend to get very attached to the things I make. However, I know they are headed towards loving homes - which makes me excited for their new friends/owners.

I have given two goodbye talks so far. Which may make me sound crazy, but I want them to know they'll be unwrapped out of their packaging soon & to not give up hope.

Yes, yes - I'm corny. But I can't help it - ever since I was a girl, plush & stuffed animals have held a very special place to me. They all have distinct personalities, y'know...

I made my first sale! & to a dear friend, which makes it all the more worthwhile. I'm pretty thrilled about it, & I know H. will give Cat Tooth a good home. She has also sparked off a new creative spree, so I can thank her twice over ;]

We're getting *a lot* of snow over the next 24 hours, so I plan to visit the library, sew sew sew & drink more tea. & tonight going to a holiday party! One with lots of yummy veggie food + good company.

| Susan Powter's newish website | Yes, I enjoy her. So there.

| It's a Cryptic World! | Because I love cryptozoology.

| Mystery Writer's Accesories | While I like to think these would be on the desk of a young girl detective, I have a feeling if I had them I would go around opening other people's mail & looking for clues on the sidewalk.


Pop-Culture-Feminist Reads

| Nigella Lawson Feels Bad About Her Body | This one is mostly re-quotes from the previously listed one.

| It's time for Kellie Pickler and Sherri Shepherd to quit playing dumb! | One of my pet peeves.

I have made a few things the past few days...but I cannot post them as they are holiday gifts for people who may scamper upon them before their due time. Arrr. I'll get back to the cryptid world eventually!

It's a pop music sort of day. I made two new (smaller) creations for the shop yesterday & now I MIGHT...be on a roll.

New things!

I am making some really cute monster cards...yay.

& by the way, glue sticks have come a long way since I last cut & paste. ;]
