Finally finished one of my panda bear boxes.
And I also stocked the shop fuller than it's ever been.
I made these mini treat bags over the weekend. I'm totally addicted to vintage trick or treat bags---Yes, I remember them with great glee! So of course, I tried to make some on my own. These are the perfect size for ATCs too. I had to carve another stamp for the orange moon and use a mask to mask out the owl when I stamped. I'm very pleased with the way they came out--and now of course, I'm totally regretting that I did not buy a gocco when I had the chance. I'm quite intrigued with two color printing at the moment.
But I'm still somewhat enamored with what I can do with my poor man's printing press.
I haven't touched my work in progress manuscript/book dummy though since I posted about it last so I have to get back to that. The research book I ordered through the library system came in and I picked it up yesterday so I need to get serious about that.
Meanwhile, I've got a headcold that is making me nuts! Kiddo is home sick today with it too--he brought it home and gave it to me. Usually the colds don't start until Halloween--what's up with this??? Anyhow, I'm just about fried for the day. I think it's time to snuggle on the couch with a good movie and wait for the orders to pour in. HA!
:-P















box, I meant box :)

That is one fancy Fred Astaire of a bear! Love the treat bags too - I felt a wave of happy nostalgia looking at them.
You've been one busy lady - hope you and the kiddo both feel better soon!

Oh my, the bear is divine. He looks as if his chest is puffed out, very happy about something. And the mushroom is cute too.
