Over 2 months??

I'm a bad, bad blogger. Haven't had much to say, really.
Had an anniversary (1 year!), received my 2 (yes 2) cases of JLed Finders Keepers (see post below), made $250 at my mom's garage sale last weekend, that's about it.

I have 2 swaps to put together and send very soon, one is Halloween and the other is Apples, they're both from a group on Flickr. I can't wait for these because I've only done one swap, and these have 3 swap-partners each! I need to get crackin on the little felt ornaments I'm sending with the swaps.

Been wanting to take pictures of new goodies I've bought for Halloween, I suppose I'll just wait until I decorate now. I think I'll start tonight because all my new things are calling to me!

Here's my Skull paper set for work. I'm kinda disappointed in the the quality we're getting but I can't do much about it. (pictures courtesy of OTC's website)

Kill me now

Kidrobot - Joe Ledbetter Finders Keepers
Release date: August 30th
16 figures
20 to a case/blind boxed of course
So, I really should plan to buy 2 cases, right? omg.

They're showing 3 styles in 2 colorways here. That makes me think there are 8 styles/2 colorways. So, do I really need 2 cases if there aren't 16 different-style figures? What are they not showing us?? AHHHHH!!



43 days to go. :faint:

One of the pages of my skull paper pack, due out later this year. I think it's rad. Click on the picture to go to my Flickr page, there are more designs.

Shinzi Katoh fabric and kawaii terrycloth

My ridiculous fabric obsession is back, it's been awhile since I bought any so I made an order with superbuzzy and reprodepot.
I could have spent a lot more, I think I was pretty good.
I ordered this very expensive but very worth it fabric from superbuzzy.com on Tuesday, I can't wait to get it!


Along with these terrycloth prints!





I'll put up a picture when I get everything. :)

Mushies at Urban Outfitters

Ceramic mushie bank $18
Kinda bulky looking, but that means it just holds more coinage. :D


Ceramic mushie S&P shakers $16
These don't look like they're painted the best, but I still like them.

I'll try to post up pictures of my ever-growing mushie collection, I've picked up some new things recently.

My current favorite artist

And he has toys...


His original paintings are going for up to $2500, I'd give my left arm for one. I wish I could go to gallery showings in CA and at least see them, that'd make me happy.

My BBQ scrapbooking line is in the catalog!

Here it is! My BBQ paper pack, acrylic stamps, epoxy stickers and sticky ribbon! The first two shots are from the Fun Expressions home page, they show some projects and the latest catalog cover (I did the cover).
I'm super excited, even though the paper shot does not show the whole kit, but I've let someone know and hopefully they'll replace that picture online.







This stuff is only available at orientaltrading.com (search: barbeque)
