Taking shape-changing ideas and altered directions- part 5

Maybe a few 3/4" buttons.

Monday updates 3

I hope your Easter holidays or whatever you celebrate spring with were filled with love and family and that it was eggciting and sunny.
We had a very eggciting day. Everything was just ducky until about 4 pm when the house felt like it was on the ocean and we were going to sail away.
After I get over the "WTF?" feeling that first comes with a major earthquake, I start to smile. I know it is sick but I love the energy pulse that I get from them. As long as I am here where I live, I feel pretty safe.
First thing that runs through my mind is please protect every one involved. Then I just sit back and feel it. When they are happening there is nothing you can do to stop them so I just might as well go with what is happening. Haven't felt a quake like this since the Northridge Quake.
We have been shaking ever since too. We can feel some, but most of them we can not. Since yesterday we have had over 400 earthquakes. Here is a great place to check it out! http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/  scroll down and click on the southern California area of the US map.
Happy Monday and may you all be on solid ground. ;-D

James' Birthday

Madi's little buddy James turned 1 last weekend.

James' Mom and Dad got my daughter a room to have Madi's birthday in, I wanted to do something special for them.

I asked James' mom "What is the theme for James' Birthday?"

She said, "We kind of like this car!"

I didn't say anything, but I thought, I don't like to make cars.

NO, I don't like them at all.

At least it has a smile. It is hard to make them perfectly smooth.

What a wreck! James' Mom was happy though. I knew I liked that woman! Finished it friday night. Party was on Saturday the 27th!
Happy Birthday James!

Hoppy Easter 2010

A prayer for blogger

Blogger must really be in a state.

The gremlins are multiplying at an incredible rate.
All from the family of BX.
I wonder if they are all the same sex.
Sometimes your profile counter counts one at a time
And sometimes it has no reason or rhyme.
Gremlins are infecting blogger at a rapid rate.
I just hope it is not too late.
Posting and commenting are having to wait.
I hope blogger gets this fixed at a very close date.
How will I talk to those I love?
Blogger needs help, maybe it will come from above.

Taking shape-changing ideas and altered directions- part 4

Ok, now this is my favorite one!! ;-D

Taking shape-changing ideas and altered directions- part 3 revisiting hearts

I thought I would make another heart.

Fill your heart with art. Front on the left top and back on the right top.
Little bigger than a quarter, 19 for $5.00
Bottom right is heart filled with art. Not for this price.
Bottom left is a quarter ;-D

Here is the first one I made a couple of years ago.
