{Made by Me} Monday


[Made by Me] Monday - Mini Notebooks






Bub and Mimi are always asking for paper to draw on, so I decided to make mini notebooks for them.

I just cut white printer paper and cardstock and stapled them together. Each one has 12 pages. I wanted to add a little cuteness to it, so I used my handcarved stamps on the cover. They can color it in or leave it blank.

Fast. Easy. Simple. :)

Go Black Tigers!!

Today was Bub's first soccer game. He did really good. He didn't score any goals, but his team won.
4 - 1. Whoohoo! :D




Finally made it to the post office today. Sent out a bunch of tag and swaps for SB. :)

I also received a few things in the mail today.
Including this guy. Isn't he cute? >_<

Hump Day.

Today was another free day. Mimi went with daddy, and I had time to myself. :)

I made a few more handcarved stamps and started packaging up a couple swaps for swap-bot.

Went to bible study tonight. Dad picked me up because I didn't want to drive.
It was a good bible study. Small group tonight, but that's ok. :)

Lots of thunder & lightning tonight. Hate it. >_<"

Oh, I can't wait til saturday! Bub has his first soccer game! :D
He's gonna look so cute in his uniform!

Anyway, i'm not really tired.
Hmm...another handcarved stamp before I go to bed? Hehe...

Nothing to do tuesday...

Today was kinda boring. Mimi went and spent the day with daddy, so I had a free day.
Didn't do much though. >_< Let's see.........I got to watch yesterday's episode of Pretty Little Liars and Hawaii 5-0. lol! :P
Cleaned the kitchen. Didn't get to the livingroom though.....i'll save that for tomorrow.

I wanted to do a little sewing, but the creative juices weren't flowing. lol!
I did however end up cutting and serging my sisters curtains tonight because they were too long for her liking.
I've been stuck in a sewing rut lately. Trying to think of NEW things to make/create.
Any ideas?? ;)

{Made by Me] Monday - Handcarved Stamps

I've tried handcarving stamps before, but they never really worked out.

I got a swap-bot package in the mail from a a very nice lady and in it she included this Owl handcarved stamp. :)



I was inspired so I decided to go searching for my carving tools and give it another shot. ;)

This is what I came up with..... A Nori Musubi & Me. :P

KAWAII!!! ^___^



I LOVE how they came out! I can't wait to make more! Hehehe...

Sun-Day

Went to church this morning. Awesome service about compassion.
If you have compassion, you must "show" compassion. It is an action.

After church we had BK for lunch. Didn't really do anything today.
The kids played outside for a bit, then our little cousin came over (sis had to babysit her) so the kids had fun playing together. Making plenty noise while mommy was taking a nap. >_<







After dinner my sister and I took the kids to Wally World & to eat frozen yogurt at Tutti Frutti. Yum. :)





It's late. Gotta get the kids to bed.
Hopefully they knock out so mommy can do a little sewing.... ;)
