Finally! As promised. What was once known as the "Spring Goodie" Kit is now just going to be the "Bird Nest De-stash Kit". What is good though, is I kept finding more fun, cool, little things to toss in. So, bonus for it having sat around the Studio for almost three months, is more stuff in it.
So many cool things here, some vintage and some new. Perfect for creating. And hopefully, inspiring someone to create.
Some vintage goodies include stickers,lace, tape measure, flash card, thread/spools. Crushed silk ribbon in taupe and robin's egg blue (of course), buttons, velvet leaves and more are all new. A fun mix to be sure. Great for scrap booking or making cards or tags or whatever.
All packaged up in a cute little egg carton! And at the great price of $26.00 and that includes shipping! Yeah, shipping. Wanna buy it? Go to my Glitter and Grunge Shop. SOLD! Thanks K! :D
As promised (or threatened - however you wanted to take it) yesterday. The "pink" version of the fly tag. But with a twist. Rather than the completed tags, I put together a little kit. Enough goodies for you to make 4 tags and a completed tag to go by. A steal at only $10.00. And that includes shipping as well.
OK. Maybe not a steal. But heck, a pretty decent deal. Just add glue.
All packaged in a cello! Over at, you got it, my Glitter and Grunge shop. OK, end of sales pitch. SOLD! Thanks K! On to other matters.
Hey look, a Big Foot sighting. My life is so colorful, even down to my toes! Or rather "toe". Poor little thing, it looks like it has a black eye. It was a "Severe Stubbing Incident". No pets were harmed in this incident. And no cuss words shouted. But a lot of jumping up and down, toe holding and boo-hooing did commence. I thought it was broken, but it moved, so just badly bruised. So a "miss" on the break.
And the "hit"...alas my poor Sweet Hub now joins the ranks of the swelling un-employed. That's the swelling "numbers" of un-employed, not the swelling of the actual un-employed themselves.
I think our state has not been hit quite as hard as some of the others, with the economic woes. But, that could be changing. Especially with the closing of auto dealerships and such. Over 90 IT peeps where let go yesterday...it does make one shake her head in wonder. But, we have survived before and we will survive this one as well, with the grace of God. And perhaps even get a little thinner in the bargain.
Hey, it's all good. Kit's are in my Glitter and Grunge shop! And I'm currently working on book kits that are too dang cute. If I do say so myself.
And while not totally happy, it's a Thursday. Thanks for looking (and hopefully shopping).
Thanks so much for your sweet comments.
So sorry about your toe! It looks pretty bad!
Hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.

Your Kit is beautiful, and that toe looks very sore! I hope things work out with the employment scene. We are realtors here in So. Calif. and things have been VERY tight. Best Regards, Hugs Diane

Your kits are so cute. I love your handwritting style. Sorry about your toe, that had to hurt! But the polish is a pretty color.
Sorry to hear about your husband joining the unemployed. Hopefully there is a better job waiting for him.
Have a wonderful weekend.

Sorry to read about hubby's job. I'll cross my fingers and hope something good comes his way soon!

Cindy Lou Who - I'm so sorry about the toe and job loss. I hope and pray he finds something quickly, and that all your crafts fly off the shelves as fast as these last two adorable kits!

Cindy,
I was so sorry to read about your husband's employment change. We're in a similar situation at our house. My husband is trying to go it on his own with his own business while still looking for a job....it's tough. My thoughts are with you.
On a lighter note, your kits are SO adorable! I like the way you package them....especially the one in the little egg carton. Too cute!
Hugs,
~Allie

Your kits are LOVELY and it looks like they sold quickly--but who could resist those purdy colors!
Sorry about your hub's job--too much of that going on everywhere! Love your positive attitude though:)
Hope your poor toe is feeling better--dang, it hurts when that happens!
Hugs!
