Popping in

just short and sweet tonight...I still have to hang out fresh towels, fold laundry, dust (we'll call it a lick and a promise!) and possibly wash the kitchen floor before my inlaws arrive in less than two hours... eeck!

More Mimi is the featured paper -- don't forget that during March it's a BOGO special...and I just love this paper. Anyone who sees it in real life, they love it too!


These birds from The Angel Company are an old set (All Things of Nature) but they remain one of my favorites - and they are still in the catty so they must be pretty popular! I'm not sure what type of bird this should be, but I went with the colors in my paper and I'm pretty happy with the little guy. I just won't send it to a bird watcher to be safe! tee hee...

Have a super weekend everyone - I appreciate you stopping by to see my work.

edited: It's 30 minutes out and I got everything done but the kitchen floor - since their eye sight is worse than mine, I'm going to just skip it! Juliet asked how I colored the bird...my standard, go to method -- prismacolored pencil and gamsol!
