Gadgets


Hooray! I got my "jannily" stamp and I am so excited. Paul and the kids have been stamping everything they can find. I also got some labels printed off which look fantastic ... but now that I see them, I can totally make these myself.

I also started making some bug cards that are super cute, what kid, okay what boy, doesn't love things all creepy and crawly? I also made a set of party invitations with little bumble bees. They have little rosy cheeks ... why did it take me so long to discover blending chalks? Pretty soon we will be having J's birthday party, well I say soon but really it's not until May. I can`t wait to share what we have in store ...

We begin

We finally got started on our site, with lots lots lots to do (in the evenings once the kiddos are in bed of course). Right now I am awaiting some supplies and then I can get a few wraps done. I am working on expanding the Truck Series in the cards as well.
We are switching materials that we use on the finger puppets to make them a bit more durable, so I can’t wait to get some of those done to show you, and will be switching to hand-stitched eyes as well to make them more kid-friendly. After a friendly competition between Paul & I on the puppet packaging that can double as a small puppet theatre, I must admit that Paul’s has won, so far we only have the prototype on here ( I will share mine later as well!)
I have a plethora of woodwork for Paul to do for me to paint that I am so excited about … if only he had the time to start it!
