Getting ready for Surtex!

I'm up late working as usual as I prepare for my very first show! I'll be showing my work at Surtex (or at least my agent will be, I'll be stuck here). So now I'm working double time to get all kinds of presentations ready for the show. Stationery, room decor, gifts, tabletop, textiles ... all my favorite things!

Next week will be challenging, as the kids are home for Spring Break... who's on break? Not me! I'll be up till midnight every night to make up for what will most likely be very unproductive days. Here's a cute rug I designed using my tiny menagerie collection.

I'll be up for a little while longer... but the kids are up with the birds (even, or I should say, ESPECIALLY on the weekends!) So I better get some sleep soon. Really, how did this night owl ever produce two early birds?!

happy friday!

still here.... really I am!

It's been a long time since my last post.... sick kids, sick me. But now we're finally recovered (husband not so much). I've been working as much as I can, but with constant interruptions (I need a drink, I'm hot, I'm cold, I don't like this show...) all day long it's hard to get in the groove. Here are some things I've been doing in my vast free time! ~ Heather

Happy Valentine's Day

The sweetest day of all! Happy Valentine's Day! This is a little project I was working on with my kids to give away to all their little friends at their Valentine's Day parties. The stamps are from Papertrey, their Tiny Treats: Valentine's line. So cute!

cool gadget: slide

See reading blogs is SO not a waste of time... I found a cool little gadget that lets me post my portfolio as a slideshow. Cute, huh? And it only took me a MERE hour and a half to figure out how to post it! I don't think I could remember how I did it if my life depended on it! But I managed to get it posted. Hurray! I'm a computer genius! No, not really.....

Check it out at slide.com. It's really for posting your snapshots, but it works beautifully for a portfolio as well.

Hurray! I am so taking the rest of the day off!
