  • sheesh, it’s hot

    We melted today.  95* is too hot for April.  At least it didn't rain and I could do a little spraying.

    I love collecting type from magazines but I don't really care what it says.  I will scudge up these pages tomorrow with some sandpaper and then spray paint so they look like decaying posters often seen on random surfaces in New York.  This Walls Notebook is perfect for that.

    I confess, I've put up a few posters myself – although it's been a while since my HIM Street Team sniped in the city.   We need a new album so we can launch a crusade.  Here's some old Evidence.  Kat didn't mind getting the heartagram sticker…she's a fan.

    Speaking of crusades, No. 30 is coming to an end.  We are discussing journaling in your journal with Cat Got Your Tongue?  Come play before it's over!

  • my little piece of earth

    Celebrating Earth Day was different when the kids were little.  There was always something going on at the elementary schools to help them appreciate this planet we share.  We don't participate in those activities any more, but I am proud the kids have grown to respect the importance of recycling.  Today I was in the yard and gave a prayer of thanks for our green grass, beautiful trees, and blooming rose bushes.

    It was a terrific weekend spent with girlfriends….no incriminating photos, just the evidence that our hostess knows how to pick the right place to eat.

    Word is the Hot Topic rubber is on the way to me so I should be shipping all orders this week!  Thanks for joining in on this fundraiser – it was a roaring success!  Final report coming soon.

    Lots of rain today.  The clouds rolled on and I noticed the clover patches.  It's my first harvest for 2009.  Proof of a lucky girl.  And more….this arrived recently from Kathleen, who has XXOOs on her license plate.  If you see her give a toot and a wink.

    And how about this from Rita?  So cool to know the *pink wink* lives on in our thoughts.

    I have posted Crusade No. 30 ~ Cat Got Your Tongue?  Come play!  Thirty months of crusading for creativity, can't believe it.  Congrats to Lay Hoon for being the Top Hat Pick for No. 29.

    And finally, this isn't lucky, this is good hearts in action….more than 100 of us.

    I wanted to thank all of you who came by to offer your support for our friend Paula and her family.  The update on our fundraiser:  70+ orders, and I'm still logging them in.  *THANK YOU*.  This is really cool.  If you haven't read all the comments in the last post you should click and have a look – we've gotten two from Paula, and she reminds us all to check our smoke alarms, practice our escape routes, check on our insurance, and get a good fire-proof safety box. 

    Thank you for your kind words for my brother and his family.  I think your prayers and good vibes worked as it appears they have held the tides from entering their home.  It will be some time before life is normal but eventually they will be sleeping in their own beds again.  *offers prayers of gratitude*

    One more note of thanks to friends and readers who have spread the word about the fundraiser.  I really appreciate that this has grown wings and got bigger than I even hoped.  I'm enclosing a button, since I've already offered it to some…if you want to use it please link it to the order page on GPP HERE.

  • hot topic, new rubber, special benefit

    A special announcement….but first, check your smoke detectors.  Practice your escape routes….

    I will post an edit here when I have the order information ready.  I hope you'll join me in rallying 'round Paula and her family.  Keep them in your prayers, and while you are at it, pray for my brother and his family as they have been sandbagging for days in Moorhead, MN, with the hopes of fending off the flooding waters from their town and their home.  Fire and water….I'm thankful for the four walls around me today, aren't you?

    EDIT:  I've loaded the new rubber sheet to Green Pepper Press.  Keep in mind it is pre-order so won't ship for a few weeks.  I set up a new shipping policy so this half sheet can go out by First Class mail, which is slower but cheaper!  ($1 to U.S., $1.70 to Canada, and $3.00 elsewhere) 

    Thank you for all your kind words.  Anam asked about a paypal donation address – that has been set up by Paula's friends and can be found HERE.

  • if these walls could talk…

    I should be working in my HIMnal, but had to test out a few pages in my notebook.  Acrylic paint and rubber stamp ink work really nice on the pages.  Spray paint bleeds through (as it does on most journal pages) but the effect is super cool because it's so random and will guide your play on the next page.
