Whatever it takes

I know there are more useful things to do than this, but it keeps me creative and sane....the kids created gingerbread houses and I pretty much let them take over the kitchen.....once they are in bed I will tackle the creative mess....

Monster WIP's

I have more monsters for later... not till late night though.

18 Days till Christmas and Summa Ornaments

Last night we went to get a tree....IT WAS COLD....this is my third Portland winter and it's never been this hurting cold. I don't like it.... I made some ornaments. If you aren't feeling the "spirit" yet could you please leave a comment...hahaha...usually I am happy to just hear Christmas music...

Christmas Ornament Monster WIP's

I am making a few Christmas tree ornaments today and tomorrow. I wasn't going to make ornaments but someone asked me about them. It feels late to me to start making any, haha, but what the hell, if they don't sell I can put them on our tree :D

New Plush Monsts

Monster WIP's

For later. But I have errands to run :)

Some Christmas Stuff

Christmas Elves

New Stuff

It's not looking too Christmassy around here, i know....I need a new header and twinkly lights and red and green, good cheer all that stuff...but honestly I am not in the spirit yet...I am not scroogey exactly i just don't "feel it"...as in it's still September or something.

I have these Christmassy stuffeds I will finish later... I was on a roll kinda and then I had to run an errand which turned into something BIGGER. Not life threatening, just nerve damaging.
On the drive though I saw a bigger and fatter moon....it's a full moon tonight huh? Later I will go out and try to shoot it.

Big Fat Moon

I love night skies.

Old Stuff

The Miss Germany wallet photo belonged to my grandfather who was in Europe during WW2. I cherish it!

Such a romantic stamp......sigh sigh...:D

Back from the holiday

We were in Southern oregon visiting family for Thanksgiving. As we left yesterday it was sunny and beautiful. Eugene was foggy and dreamy...or depressing, lol....Portland was just cloudy.
While down there I went through some of my packed up junk and found these old doll parts. It was like Christmas :D

I love old musicals

My sister has a buncha old records of musicals etc. She's giving me a few she doesn't want but I took pics of them all. I just love their art! Also I put Monster cynthia inna shot with an ANCIENT rabbit I made over 4 years ago. I like it's wonkiness and may make a couple when I go back. Tomorrow.

Still Visiting

Thanksgiving is for thanks and laziness. My energy is no where to be found....huh.


I saw the movie A Christmas Carol in 3D and I loved it :D
Unfortunately there was disturbed guy in the theater that talked to himself the entire time and I went out twice to complain and they didn't do anything about it...if it werent for my 7 year old who really wanted to see it I would have asked for my money back and left. Jerky management. Cept I didn't use the word jerky :D

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am using a totally inappropriate poisonous mushroom photo, lol, but I am just using a fallish pic I found from my sister's files :D
I haven't had internet access really so that's that....it's a bit maddening but what can you do?? hahaha

Happy Thanksgiving ALL :)

Away for Thanksgiving

I'm visiting family for a few days, so i won't have anything new for this week. I'll try posting still, but I'm being lazy today :D
