One of those weeks
I heart scrap paper, especially this project here... I was so inspired here (I have this print, so so sweet)that I got out my papers too. I had much fun playing with my paper (not for the project just for fun), I have used exactly the same 'cut the shape' and construct method as I do with my fabric and toys.....except this character has come to life with just a little bit of pen.... no sewing needed. .... so much satisfaction in relatively little time....
That brings me to my 'one of those weeks' grumble... (before I start whining, let me thank all of those who gave me fantastic advice and tips for the wacom ... I am slowly getting the hang of it). So it all started with rocking up to my own art class an hour early, i have taught for over two years at the SAME time every week... I waited for almost an hour before I gave up and went home upset that no one came ... of course plenty of people came but at the correct time, an hour later. That was last Monday, then on Thursday I backed into our roller door!! what? I could have sworn the door was infact up... Knowing bad luck comes in threes I was bracing myself for the next crazy thing I could do..... which I thought was definately going to a doctors appointment on time but two weeks early!! and it was one where you fast for 12 hours... so the good thing was I went out and got breakfast....... but no that wasn't the silliest thing I could have done that week.... it was spilling my coffee on ... yes! my laptop!! Can one person really be that ditzy all in the space of 7 days? So I have been off line for a few days connecting up my new laptop... which has a 5 metre NO LIQUID zone around it now.... I am a good three days behind in work... so no shop updates or DIY fair. The shop update will now be this time next week.... but I will let you know if you are on the update list.
I think it's weeks like that where you think, someone is trying to tell me something... slow down! I promise I won't do another whinge post for a very long time.... we won't even get me started on Moopy's sleeping pattern....or lack there of.
ugh...sounds like a hard week! here's to a fresh start!
loves!

I think you deserve a whine after all that!

take care!

Time to relax in a hot bath. Your creature is cute.

I think the little one's odd sleep patterns may have to do with her mama's mishaps! :)
Sleep deprivation gets me every time and lots of clumsy/strange things begin to happen... Here's to more sleep for you both in the near future :) !

Lol, Poor Ms C. I know how it feels, had a particularly crappy week meself. But usually all the silly things happen at once, like you say, so there's plenty of time to laugh about it all later! xoxo to you :) Love the cut paper guy, btw.
