shopping

Look what I bought: a really cute Matryoshka card!
I think I'll keep it myself instead of sending it to someone else :)

more new items

Two new sets available on etsy:
clothes pins and matching hand stamped ribbon.

The first one is all about craft (I used the stamps I bought earlier),
so this would be perfect for a craft room!The other one has cute apples buttons and ribbon with trees and leaves.
I still can't resist those!

must-see-monday : liz prince

This weeks must-see-monday isn't craft related, it's about comics! The last couple of years I'm really into so called graphic novels. Some of my favourite writers are Chris Ware, Jeffrey Brown and Craig Thompson. There aren't that much female graphic novelists around, so I thought it would be nice to show you Liz Prince. She draws these often cute, short comics and her little book 'Will You Still Love Me If I Wet the Bed?' is one of my favourites.

promo cards

The last weeks I didn't feel like doing much with my etsy shop. I know, really bad, but I just didn't have enough time and there were so much other things to do. But I think I'm back now :) I made some new items which I'll show you later, but I also ordered these promo cards. They turned out exactly how I wanted, so yay!

must-see-monday : supermaggie

Supermaggie! This duo designs wonderful shirts and hoodies. I absolutely love their nature inspired prints, the two pictured above are my favourite. The best is each print comes in different colours and bodies, so there's a lot to choose form! They even ship to my country, hmm when is my birthday again? :)

lazy day

Yesterday I took a day off and spend the day going to the library, reading books, magazines and the newspaper, watching a movie, cooking a nice meal, sleeping and drinking lots of tea. I definitely needed that! But now I totally forgot about the happy stats, so I'll replace it with this photo. Sitting on the couch with a magazine, some tea and an apple makes me really happy!

Too bad I just heard this issue of Craft will be their last! :(

cupcake liners

After seeing a cupcake liner garland on flickr I decided it would be perfect for the boyfriends birthday. So I made my own and love how it turned out. Also a perfect way to get rid of my stash of cupcake liners :)

tagged : 4th of the 4th

A little bit late, but last week I was tagged by two Mariekes, Branch naturals and Vanmarieke :), to post the 4th picture of the 4th folder on my computer. Well, here it is: some cupcakes I made for my birthday almost two years ago. Looking at them made me wish it was spring already!

It wasn't a special week. I didn't accomplish the things I planned, because I was too tired from work almost everyday. But now it's weekend, yay! and I'm already off to prepare some secret things for the boyfriend's birthday next tuesday, exciting :)

first money

Since the opening of my etsy I actually sold a few items, definitely more than I expected! But after my last sale I suddenly realized I earned some money with it too! Totally forgot about that :) But what to do with it? Just put it on your bank account and forget about it? Nooo, I decided to browse through etsy to buy something I would really like.
What I found is not handmade, but it was too cute too resist: a petit sewing stamp set. Aaww I love it!! The stamps are so clear and pretty.

must-see-monday: boygirlparty

I'm quite sure a lot of you already know boygirlparty, but I still feature her in my must-see-monday of this week. Her animal designs are soo cool, the owl is my favourite!
You can even buy this gift set.
Oh wouldn't it be great to receive a package like this?
