Gabe



Gabe is the forever camera hog. I had my backdrop set up to take pictures for Ebay, and Gabe jumped in the scene to get his photo taken. What a doll!

Twas the night before Chritmas......in Independence

Mark and I surprised our dear friends, Jim and Laurel with an 8 foot Santa. We have supplied them with WTLA (white trash lawn art) since they moved to their new house. Last Christmas, we found this blow up Santa at Target during their clearance sale... we have saved it and schemed for almost a year. We were hoping to be able to get it installed and inflated before we were met with Jim's shot gun LOL.

Here it is in our living room.... you know how you should never set up a tent for the first time in the dark? Well we took that advice to heart and figured out how the thing worked BEFORE we had to do this outside in the cold.






























Here is their house without the Santa... all tucked in for the night.



































Here is their house WITH the Santa! LOL! We had such a good time!

Ohhhhhhh Too funny!

I will have these listed in my Etsy shop soon. I have neglected my little store recently, too busy working I guess. I promise to do better getting things completed and listed. These are hilllarious... the musical note paper is from an actual antique hymn book... dated 1845. CRAZY!

Enjoy....

Picture this, Bat Man,...

I'm sitting in my closet, holding my knees to my chest, I'm wearing my special helmet that protects me from falling debris... all the time I am rocking and singing to myself happy songs to make the fear go away... the radio in the corner doesn't help.... all I can hear is ...

IT'S RAINING IN KANSAS CITY!


I mean really.... do I need to get the mop or something? Why is everyone around here so frickin scared of rain?? I've never seen anything like it before in my life. The kids got out of school yesterday 2 hours early because of "inclement weather." Today, they were dismissed 1 hour early for "dangerous weather conditions." I laughed my ass off as I watched the weather reports... the whole time, I had my blinds open in the living room and observed nothing!


So, imagine if you will... King Julian running around welcoming the freaks for Kansas City... "Hello Giant Pansies, please feel free to bask in my glow!" Meanwhile... he's trying to figure out why everyone is freaking out because of the rain and he remembers, "they're just a bunch of pansies!"

ALL HAIL, the KANSAS CITY PANSIES!

I had the distinct pleasure of creating two clipboards for a dear friend of mine and fabulous repeat customer! The Oh Bats! Board is for a friend of hers who is a bat specialist. What a unique career. I did not take a picture of the stuff in the ribbons up top, but there are a couple of hidden bats there too! The WICKED Board is just incredible. I LOVE Wicked, so this one for me was very fun to create. The person who receives this gift will be ready to head to the Wizamania at the Emerald City in STYLE! I couldn't be happier! The letters were cut by my friend Alta, on the Wishblade I glittered them with stickles to match the perfect WICKED green to match the clipboard. The font is a secret... she looked for hours for me. I love her for that!
