Psst…Hey Bear!

Fashion according to Addie

Dear Bear,
Let me let you in on a little secret. Do you really want to get out of the house without making Mama crazy because it is chilly outside, but still be allowed to wear what you want to? Just very sweetly and innocently tell her that you will wear your jacket AND hat. And she will overlook your bare legs and sandals!

Mwah hahaha. Mom really is quite a rookie sometimes.

Love,
The ever-fashionable rocker of the skirt

Create ~ Theme Thursday

Again, good intentions…not enough time. Stacy’s theme today was create, and while I have been busy creating some Halloween costumes, I did not get to create the “art” that I have had floating around in my head for the past month or so.

I use Photoshop and Illustrator nearly every day for my “real job,” so when I want to create for myself I usually gravitate towards tactile, non-computer stuff, like scrapbooking, painting or sewing. I saw a series of prints a few months ago that I wanted to rip-off borrow the idea from and re-create it in Illustrator. So when I saw Stacy’s idea this week, I was psyched. I was finally going to get a chance to sit down and do it. But my own procrastination of all of the other things that needed to get done, simply didn’t leave me with enough time to do it.

However, I am happy to report that all of the Halloween costumes are finished, pressed and anxiously awaiting two little goblins. But, I’m going to save those beauties for Crafty Tuesday next week.

I will leave you a few photos with some creations from Em’s school carnival.

Wow...that looks cool!

Best friends
