New Projects

Here are a couple of things I've created in the past few days:

Big Hydrangeas!

My sister is asking people to post pics of their biggest plants. She also wants pictures of cute animals and kids. My kid's asleep and my animals aren't cute. So there! Anyway, here is my big hydrangea bloom. Yeah, I know, you've all seen bigger, but I'm proud of my blooms this year.

Happy Father's Day!

Arghhhh!

Today has not been a great day for me and my creative endeavours. My printer officially died. I am very disappointed because I was planning a super cool Father's Day card for the hubby. Now I have no way to print it out. I'm just going to have to show it to him on the computer tomorrow. LAME! I did buy a wide format printer off Ebay. It should be here next week. It's an HP 9800. The super cool thing is that it will let me print off 12X12 scrapbook pages. This guy had a ton of them in his warehouse and was selling them pretty cheap. Don't worry; he's a platinum seller and had over one thousand positive reviews. I'm safe.

The gardening is coming along slowly. I bought my son a bubble machine, and he sits in his exersaucer and watches the bubbles float by while I get a bit of gardening done. The zinnias are looking good, and I have several that reseeded. It's going to be zinnia crazy around here soon. I hope it looks nice by my Fourth of July party.

Viva mi garden!

Since school let out, I've been working in the garden as much as I can. Things have gotten way out of control. Last year I really didn't keep up with anything at all b/c I was mondo preggo. Now I try to sneak out when the baby is sleeping or preoccupied with daddy. I took some pictures of all the things going right in my garden to give me a little perspective. I tend to get pretty doom and gloom when my gardening tasks overwhelm me. I also went and bought some pretty zinnias today to help me get inspired.

A change of plans

Okay, so I've decided to devote this blog to showing off all my creative endeavors. The first is the actual layout of the blog. I used a free digiscrap download and created the header myself in a free program called GIMP 2.o. It's getting late; I'll post some of my GIMP creations later.
